About this ebook

There are many people who are enthusiastic about food—the cooking of it, the preparation of it, the serving of it, and let’s not forget the eating of it.

But Andrew Delaplaine is the ultimate Food Enthusiast.

This is another of his books with spot-on reviews of the most exciting restaurants in town. Some will merit only a line or two, just to bring them to your attention. Others deserve a half page or more. 

“Exciting” does not necessarily mean expensive. The area’s top spots get the recognition they so richly deserve (and that they so loudly demand), but there are plenty of “sensible alternatives” for those looking for good food handsomely prepared by cooks and chefs who really care what they “plate up” in the kitchen.

For those with a touch of Guy Fieri, Delaplaine ferrets out the best food for those on a budget. That dingy looking dive bar around the corner may serve up one of the juiciest burgers in town, perfect to wash down with a locally brewed craft beer.

Whatever your predilection or taste, cuisine of choice or your budget, you may rely on Andrew Delaplaine not to disappoint.

Delaplaine dines anonymously at the Publisher’s expense. No restaurant listed in this series has paid a penny or given so much as a free meal to be included.

Bon Appétit!

    Introduction

    There’s no question that Brooklyn has always been a separate and distinct Borough of New York. But Brooklyn was always characterized as a place far away from Manhattan, if not geographically, at least emotionally and temperamentally.

    It’s not that Brooklynites aren’t proud of Brooklyn. They’re the first ones who will be in your face to tell you they’re proud to be from Brooklyn. Barbra Streisand even said when she returned in 2013 for her sell-out concert there, It took 40 years, but I’m back!

    Remember in Saturday Night Fever when 19-year-old Tony Manero (John Travolta) meets Stephanie (Karen Lynn Gorney) at the Brooklyn hotspot where Tony reigns supreme as a disco king and they partner up to win a competition. Tony is just a go-nowhere-fast paint store clerk in the daytime, living for his moment in the lights when the weekend arrives.

    But Stephanie gazes longingly across the East River toward Manhattan, toward the other world that exists over there. In this 1977 movie you can get a real feel for the unique relationship Brooklyn has always had with Manhattan.

    Rather than seen as a place to go to, Brooklyn has for many people growing up there been a place to escape from.

    Well, not any more. A confluence of events has created a new world order where Brooklyn is now seen as a refuge from Manhattan, with its
