Food Scene

They are more than a cafe, they have the most amazing croissants, pain au chocolates, cinnamon buns, etc. In the afternoon its all about the sweet stuff to go with your coffee. A great place, but limited seating.

This is the best sushi in nyc (IMO but also Brooklyn’s opinion too). Sit down at counter for a chef’s tasting or just enjoy your favorites with a friend.

Parks & Nature

Great park, in my opinion better than central park. We have a zoo, Botanic gardens, playgrounds, picnic house, bands and local am drams frequently perform. Look out for listings.
