Here is something exciting for those of you who don’t know. A new artisanal gelato shop, Dolce Brooklyn, has opened up at 305 Van Brunt Street. Red Hook residents, you have surely already seen the bright red signage and have probably stopped in to try one or two or a few of their unique and […]
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 […]
The huge warehouse in DUMBO at 53-83 Water street has been slated to become Empire Stores, a giant shopping center, for a while now and we thought it would have been finished by now based on reports we’d heard earlier. They aren’t set to complete the space until 2017 but their very first shop is […]
Our beloved hardware store at 1114 Bedford Avenue in Bed Stuy closed a few months ago and we were bummed. It was the cheapest around and always had salt in the coldest of winter storms. Still, I was eager to see what would happen with that space. Well, to my excitement, I found out recently […]
The spot on Columbia, which formerly housed the restaurant Orchard, now has signage! Above the door painted on the top of the metal gate it says “Handsome Drakes”. We previously reported that this place may be called DeKalb Duck bc that was the LLC name but we’re confirming otherwise. We also found out some more […]

Many who worked out of our Columbia Street office would go there for lunch often, especially Mary who’d get coffee and food there daily. We noticed walking by the vacant […]
Cantine hit it out of the park for Columbia Waterfront! Branching out from their catering company, owner Alexandra Sagol and chef Eric Zawacki have opened this cafe and it’s thriving at 126 Union. Alexandra and Eric are constantly changing the menu to keep customers coming back! The options are similar to their catering menu that […]
We were truly shocked and upset when we heard our friends over at Ted and Honey would be closing their doors. We loved that place. The neighborhood loved that place. It’s such a lovely little spot on the corner of Cobble Hill Park and Clinton Street. We are however happy to hear that the owners […]
