Places I will Miss after another Move
See All Lists
1. Gorilla Coffee
I cannot believe I never wrote a review for Gorilla.
It is my heart and soul.
And now that I am moving and can no longer stroll over here on a weekend morning, I think I may cry.
No really.
My heart and soul.
2. Get Reel Video
Brooklyn, NY 11226
(718) 638-0120
Category:
Videos and Video Game Rental
Neighbourhood: Park Slope
Why oh why did I discover this place has a $0 membership fee and is only $4 a movie a month before I move??
Amazing selection.
Sweet staff.
1 out of 3 of the movies I rented skipped, but only extremely briefly.

5. Grand Army Plaza Greenmarket
I stick by my older review but this review is for Milk Thistle Farms:
Your chocolate milk is the purest form of heaven in a bottle.
...I'm serious. Go get a bottle (fyi they usually sell out) then walk down the path into the park. Sit on the grass.…More »

Brooklyn, NY 11218

Category:
Skating Rinks

Wollman Rink reminded me why I love my neighborhood. Parents with their kids, teenagers hanging out, middle aged folks and child prodigies all skated side by side.
A beautiful thing, even on uneven ice.
Also, my legs are super sore. If you are out of…More »
8. Chavella's - CLOSED

9. Brooklyn Museum
I really like the Brooklyn Museum.
A few years back I saw an amazing Basquiat exhibit there, lately I have seen the Ron Meuek and the new feminism wing/Dinner Party.
If you haven't gone, even if you have--go again to check out the feminism wing.…More »
10. Imhotep's Health & Living Foods
Brooklyn, NY 11216
(718) 493-2395
Categories:
Health Markets,
Vegetarian
Neighbourhood: Crown Heights
Sometimes you just want to pay 3.75 for a meal in return of getting ridiculously, life threateningly, full.
For 7.50 (a small) you have a choice of 4 separate Imhotep creations.
This is not small, do not be mistaken.
For the sake of your stomach, I beg…More »
