This is one of the few places where I enjoy fusiony Vietnamese food. Order a bunch of stuff to try and go family style.
My Vietnamese grandmother commands you to order the Banh Hue Dac Biet - a selection of Hue rice cake concoctions, with tasty shrimp and pork bits. Listen to Grannie!
fffarrr, but it's the only lobster shack-like place in new york, and feels good to be on the water. combine it with a russian banya visit in sheepshead bay.
Great roast duck. The noodle soups are hard to come by, Cho Lon, Chinese-Vietnamese style. Worth trying if you haven't, though full of MSG (just like it is in Vietnam).
If you're not up for a schelp to Flushing or Sunset Park, this is probably the best dim sum you'll come by.
i really like meat, but i enjoyed their fake meat. great veggie restaurant for a carnivore looking to branch out.
Beautiful gardens year-round. No one deserves to have this in their neighborhood. This place makes me feel lucky to live around here.
It's a treat to live near here during the summertime when there's always great concerts.
Stop by Central Park for a picnic, some model boats, and a visit to the Alice in Wonderland statue
Make a Saturday of it: check out the Grand Army Plaza greenmarket, take a stroll around the botanic garden, then laze around in Prospect Park.
What Brooklyn summers are made of. Bring a blanket and an intimate group of friends.
