Kao Soy restaurant open in Red Hook.

Red Hook has some really delicious restaurants and we love to here when there is a new place in the neighborhood, especially when that type of food is lacking.  This place, Kao Soy just opened at 283 Van Brunt and a sign up before it opened said to expect “authentic Thai food”.  Sounds good to […]

Red Hook Pilates Schedule.

Thought we’d share this with you.  Spoke with a couple of friends who didn’t know about this place, which is strange because they are in a great location (414 Van Brunt between Coffey and Van Dyke), so we wanted to spread the word about it.  They have pilates and yoga. Summer’s over and we know […]

Cabin Modern coming to Court Street.

At 220 Court Street in Cobble Hill we saw paper covering the windows and a coming soon sign (above).  As you can see it’s not your average brown paper but maps in the windows.  What a cute idea!  It really stands out.  The sign up say “Cabin Modern” which we found out is a boutique […]

Youth art class open house at BAX.

Saw this sign up near Mother Cabrini Park the other day and thought we’d pass on the info.  It’s an organization called BAX, or Brooklyn Arts Exchange, and they are having an Open House this coming weekend where kids ages 1-18 can sample their classes.  They have movement, tumbling dance and theater classes.  BAX is […]

Patsy’s Pizzeria coming soon to Park Slope

Heard about this but just recently passed the signs for Patsy’s Pizzeria opening at 450 Dean Street.  It now says “coming soon”.  For those who haven’t visited one of the handful of Patsy’s in Manhattan, we can vouch for the deliciousness of this place.  They serve pizza’s by the pie and have been around since […]

Sugar Shop coloring contest.

This definitely caught our eye.  A coloring contest?  We remember those from our childhood and loved them!  We went in and asked about it.  They have sheets to color in the store.  They are pictures of bubblegum machines.  Your child writes their age and name, colors them and turns them in for a chance to […]

Henry’s Local Cafe

Although we traverse the whole neighborhood daily on either foot, bike, or car, every once in a while we come across a place that we haven’t seen before and think it must have opened last week only to realize it has been open for some months now.  We wanted to share this place with you, […]

New Italian Clothing store on Court Street.

308 Court Street in the Cobble Hill and Carroll Gardens area was, until recently, a flower shop.  We passed by the other day to see it transformed into a very posh looking Italian clothing store.  It’s called Bizio and Soci and sells women’s clothing and apparel.  You can see more of their merchandise on their […]

Zucker Natural Exploration Area pics.

We love exploring Prospect Park and all it has to offer, which is a vast amount of activities and relaxing areas.  We’ve added some pins to our Prospect Park Pinterest board.  We recently visited Zucker Natural Exploration Area, which is a kids park slightly hidden somewhere between the zoo and Long Meadow.  There are no […]
