edited November -1 in Crown Heights/Prospect Lefferts Gardens
Aw, just kidding. However, AM New York who has been doing features on PH and Vandy for a long time now and has moved on to feature Crown Heights and all it's hipness. I was kinda pissed they mentioned David's Brisket House, as it's Idlewild's and my beloved lunch spot. We'll see what crowds descend because of this.

    I wouldn't worry about it. Jim Leff has been writing about that spot for years, and his audience is more the type of foodie likely to make a trip from Manhattan to try a great place.

    They left all the important stuff out...

    What studio can you rent on St Marks anywhere near Franklin or w/e? And what about all the crime, all the time? Chill

    Article references Brooklyn Beverage Barn, a beer distributor on Bedford, that had been open for about a year. Sadly, I believe it closed over July 4th weekend.

    There is a beer distributor on Washington at approximately Dean St.

    ...on the PH side.

    i used to always go to Brooklyn Beverage Barn. the girl that worked there used to give me 6ers for like 2 bucks. is it really closed down? that sucks.

    also, funny that the majority of those businesses are on classon.

    that sucks about the beverage barn...i had no idea it was closed! the place on washington is really nice - good prices and good selection.
