Delicious comfort food within walking distance of the apt. Very friendly staff and super cool atmosphere. The building was made from an old barn that was dismantled and then reassembled in Bushwick. There's a hidden door to the patio through the bookcase.

Great coffee shop just a few blocks from the apartment. As listed in Zagat: "From the founder of Gorilla Coffee comes this Bushwick roaster and coffee shop offering espressos, pour-overs and other carefully brewed cups in addition to milkshakes and more surprising concoctions in a big, skylit space with roasting machinery on view. Collaborating with Roberta’s, it serves a signature Magic Bialy (topped with caramelized onions, prosciutto and a poached egg) along with pastries from local purveyors."

My all time favorite place to eat in the neighborhood! Very cute and spacious French Restaurant with a charming backyard. They do $1.00 oysters for happy hour every day and their burger is one of my favorites! Plus they have a nice selection of vegetarian entrees too. Live Jazz on Tuesday nights.

A wonderful authentic wood fired pizza spot in Ridgewood. Friendly staff and a spacious yet cozy atmosphere. A great alternative to Roberta's which tends to have a long wait. Here, you can be seated pretty quickly and the food is all made in house and soooooooo, soooooo good! I highly recommend the fresh burratta! A quick uber ride away. Worth the trip!

An iconic, old school Roumanian butcher shop in Ridgewood, Queens, neighboring Bushwick, with delicious smoked and cured meats all made in house. It's a comfortable, long walk on a nice day or a short uber ride away. Definitely worth the trip. I usually just give the butcher a $20 bill and tell him to just surprise me with an assortment of treats. They never disappoint!
