Proho in the Times Dining section- The Islands and Delicacie

Yet another Delicacies feature in the Times Dining section today. Plus, The Islands on Washington Ave got a rave review from Dana Bowen in the $25 And Under column.

Yay, Proho!

I hope for continued success for these businesses, although this may mean we in the neighborhood will have longer waits.

that review of the Islands just makes me happy to be alive.

Is the Delicacies review online? I can't find it. The Islands review is wonderful!!

From the Times:

Still More Goodies for Brooklyn Neighborhoods

"Rym Abid-Gun, who lived in Paris and worked in a chocolate store there, was frustrated because there were no shops for specialty food items in her neighborhood in Brooklyn, Prospect Heights. So a few months ago, with the help of her husband, Isitan Gun, she opened Delicacies, 639 Vanderbilt Avenue (Prospect Place). She now sells items that some parts of the city take for granted, like good olive oils and condiments, artisanal breads and a nice selection of cheeses and pastries."

They totally got the tip from Daily Heights I am sure.

Yes, and you guys scooped me. I had a post about this all ready to go for TOMORROW, dammit:
