Food and Drink: June 2008 Archives

In what is, to my knowledge, a first for ABL, a review of a restaurant (South Brooklyn Pizza) has made it from cyberspace to windowspace. It has ... in a word ... been ... laminated! Move over Time Out New York, New York Magazine and other assundry mags of eating record ;)

And check out my online review of South Brooklyn pizza. Although, I have amended my thoughts a bit, as subsesquent visits proved the pizza uneven (see my comment in the comments section). The potential is there--they just need to figure out how to tame that beast of an oven and handle crowds.

The food speaks for itself, and then there's the rooftop, and the music. FUN!

Lunchtime in the neighborhood is generally a perfuntory affair for me: falafel at Zaytoons, a slice at Vinny's, the occasional banh mi at Nicky's when I'm up that way. But my craving for sushi had to be satisfied on Monday, and that took me and my dining companion to Cube 63 on Court Street in Cobble Hill. Due to my pregnancy, I hadn't consumed sushi for a long, long time, and the restaurant's lunch menu was a nice way to ease back into the world of raw fish. Of particular interest is the tea menu, their version of the bento box, which ranges (if memory serves) from $6.50 to $8.50. Above is my tea lunch, which in addition to all the lovely little delicacies you see here, came with a whole pot of green tea. Below is what my dining companion chose.
