I have only lived in Brooklyn for about ten years, and while I can't claim to be a true Brooklynite, I love this place. I'm getting to know a little bit more of this borough every day and can't wait to keep exploring.
Anyone want to offer me a job to troll around the borough all day? I'll do a good job, I promise!
I have many, many restaurant tips...to keep them a little organized, I've tried to put the neighborhood in the title. Honestly, some of the best sushi is in Bensonhurst! (Tenzan) The most delicious pizza is here too (Europa and Il Coloseo), and we have some great brunch and Caribbean and French food as well. I mean everything! (Can you tell I love my food?)
Some of my best photos are in the travelogues because I know a lot of people have slower connections and can't keep changing pages to see all the pages of tips. Take a look!
Feel free to email me with any questions you have about Brooklyn. I may not have the answer, but I can probably guide you to the proper information.
- Pros:Every possible kind of person, language, food, and attitude you could ever imagine!
- Cons:Difficult to navigate and taxis often refuse to take you to anywhere other than the heights from Manhattan
- In a nutshell:We've got the whole world in our borough

I don'nt know much about BRK and you gave me good tips for my next visit to NY. NY city photos taken from BRK look always nice. Good day.
By the name they are Greek's. Give them regards from Athens Greece next time, sender with the same name.. Konstantinos Nice to see your pages
I've been in NYC a few times but never yet crossed over the bridge into Brooklyn. Next time I will for sure.
Great page! Happy birthday! best wishes from Sofia, Bulgaria
Fine tips, and a great view from the Wonder Wheel. When I was in college I once dated a girl from Brooklyn. But only once. It was a LONG subway ride from Morningside Heights!
Hi Kristin ,this a very impressive page of Brooklyn ,if we ever go there we know where the restaurants are that's for sure . You are very good given information ,just a wonderful page .
Park Slope and Williamsburg....both fascinating. Great choice of restaurants...that is SO New York.
Very enticing tips on Brooklyn. I'll be in NYC in June so i'll have to make a special visit!
Did I just see a news item about how wild parrots have started nesting in Broolyn? It was so cool!
Great, interesting, alive place to live. Your page brings me back souvenirs... and more!
