Coffee Roasters Coming to Carroll Gardens.

You can’t miss this giant signage on the corner of Carroll when walking down Court Street.  It announces that East One (E1), coffee roaster and restaurant, is coming soon.  After doing a little research we found out that the original E1 is in London and that the New York opening is one of Zagat’s most anticipated […]

Broccolino NYC Opening in Smith Street.

Formerly Hunter’s, and right next door to Stinky Brooklyn, is 213 Smith Street with a huge sign in the window announcing that Broccolino NYC will soon be opening in this spot.  This Italian restaurant isn’t new to the Brooklyn scene.  They have a second location near the Barclays Center on Dean Street, though food is […]

Updates on Pastificio Flora coming to Park Slope.

We have no shortage of Italian food in and around our area but this new Italian Restaurant, Flora, coming to 8th Ave in Park Slope looks very promising.  We learned a few things from the blog Here’s Park Slope and the restaurants social about what to expect, which is fresh homemade pasta and high quality authentic […]

Venezuelan Arepas coming to Carroll Gardens.

Wow! Another interesting addition to the Smith Street restaurant row.  Feels like only months ago we’d see a new restaurant opening in the neighborhood and it was either Thai cuisine or Italian cuisine adding to the many similar eateries around them.  White Maize, which has a big “Coming Soon” sign outside it’s freshly painted exterior. […]

Danish Restaurant opens on Smith Street.

We blogged earlier this week about a Welsh Restaurant opening up on Smith Street.  We had never had Welsh food and thought that was a nice little addition to the Cobble Hill neighborhood.  Well, we came across Bornholm only blocks away on Smith Street. This Danish restaurant also looks delicious and I must say we’ve […]

Cobble Hill’s New Welsh-Inspired Restaurant.

As New Yorkers we feel we’ve tried every type of food imaginable.  From Ethiopian to French Canadian.  But have you ever tried Welsh cuisine?  A new bar and restaurant just opened up on Smith Street called Sunken Hundred. Some of the dishes on the menu sounds like flavor combinations that will definitely be new to […]

Phil & Anne’s Good Time Lounge Signage.

The space at 196 Smith Street has been a foodie paradise in the past, with former tenants Char 4 doling out delicious dishes, and it will continue on that path with Phil and Anne’s Goodtime Lounge.  TV Chef Anne Burrell and Phil Casaceli plan a fall opening for the restaurant and we see that may be […]

Gersi Replaces Dosa Royale on Court Street.

So many of us were sad to see Dosa Royale shut its doors, though we are comforted by the fact that they have a location at 258 DeKalb.  The space at 316 Court Street is now inhabited by Gersi, an Italian restaurant.  The food looks good (see pics below) and the place was pretty crowded […]
