Food Scene

Delicious food! They deliver to our house, but with cash only. We recommend the Grilled Salmon on the Mesclun Salad with Shallot Dressing, or basically any of their salads, pastas, or Catfish bites!

This cafe is about a 6 minute walk from our house - it used to be called The Tiny Cup. I hear the coffee is very good. http://www.yelp.com/biz/civil-service-coffee-bar-and-kitchen-brooklyn

This place is the real deal. The owner is from Italy and they make some of the BEST pizza in NYC, we are serious. ALL of their other food is amazing too. Unless you are from Italy, you must try it!

Want super secret hole in the wall street food that's ethnic and famous? Try A and A Doubles bakery for what the local Trinidadian population says is the best place to get a double (which is a fried bread and chick pea street snack) in all of NYC. Careful because you'll walk right past this place without ever knowing how famous and how good it is! We didn't know it was here for years!

Drinks & Nightlife

Delicious food and fun bar ambiance. We recommend Monday nights - all you can eat mussels between 6-8 pm, or any other night - Chef's Salad, the burger, and so much more!
