One of my favorite things about our neighborhood is that you never know what amazing street art you might discover while walking to your destination. Lauren and I have stumbled upon giant caterpillar murals, a humongous American flag and even a beach scene so realistic I'm tempted to go find it and try to walk my way into it like some bizarre sci-fi fantasy film. Obviously the cold weather has gone to my head. The point is, we love our neighborhood (hi, Marcy Stop) and have bragging rights to some of the most amazing restaurants and bars in all of New York. Here's a to do list of some of our fave spots that you should def check out the next time you find yourself on the JMZ (ok fine, or the L for those who fear the JMZ)

Apps and Cocktails
Maison Premiere: $1 oysters from 4-7pm every M-F and mixologists who know their stuff

Dinner
Rye: They make a mean Manhattan and a food coma-inducing meat loaf sandwich
Fette Sau: Hands down the best dry rub BBQ in NY (and I've lived in TX)
Pies N'Thighs: We will be dedicating an entire post to this place but in two words: Fried. Chicken.
Bozu: It's hard to find good sushi in Brooklyn but these Japanese tapas will bring you back every time

Brunch
Ms. Kim's: Korean inspired eats and our go-to Bloody Mary
Five Leaves: Heath Ledger's spot and a huge draw for everyone because, the food is that damn good

Bar Scene
Iona: Outdoor area perfect for summer hangs and cozy inside area with too many good beers on tap
Night of Joy: Super fun rooftop spot full of nice people who returned my lost Iphone to me

Absolute Must
Nitehawk Cinema: table-side food and beverage service inside the theater

I just realized this is my second food post in a row. Oh well. Happy eating.
