Lokanda Vin and oli redux

Branzino in parchment

Ravioli filled with goat and ricotta

We must review again since it stays as a unique escape...a very brief Italian respite in a restored early 20th century drug store. The wait staff are knowedgeable and courteous without ffect. This is a dreamy part of Fort Greene.

Food Scouting in Williamsburg and BAM West Indian Fair

Tamale

Mole guac making

Mole has added a place near the smorg food fest(bklyn flea sponsored)...kent and 4st. We love the one on jane and hudson and their cubby hole on Houston but this one has room. I've heard about Spuytin Duyvil. The highlight was Mole's shrimp tacos below and the guacamole and tamale..

Jeanne's

saddle up and tractor on down to food heaven

taggliatelle with brussel sprouts and tomato butter and burata and the falanghina and the cafe and the likeable staff and culture and the fun oriented seating and the engaging chefs...this is what we wanted to kick off memorial day week end. And we walked past the men in black 3 crew filming stunts grateful they didn't spray us with their forgetful spray because we wanted to remember BRUCIES on Court and Baltic.

Surfish ...Peruvian newcomer with garden on 5av bet 4st and 5st Park Slope

Last night the garden was splendid LA like..without the floods and quakes. The fried oysters and the chips and the cauliflower soup and the paella(except for the cold rubbery squid pieces) were superb as was the avocado salad. The wine list is brief but "cherce" (bklyn for choice). The folks ,like their counterparts a few blocks away at Columbia, are warm and natural hosts. This place will be getting positive reviews...so go now and avoid the waits.

What is derma?

 Send a derma with gravy to your kid in the navy. Old school deli full of fun and fat. Corned beef not like with cabbage..spicy salami...and how come they stopped making diet cel-ray. Glad I skipped lunch.
