If it’s a nice sunny day, take a longer stroll down Tompkins Avenue and see lots of the Brownstown’s you see in lots of movies and head to the Rustik Tavern. Its look like a nothing door from outside but you step inside to a cozy bar/restaurant and they also have an outside terrace for those spring/summer days. http://rustiktavern.com/

This whole area is fantastic, so if you are not into burgers, you will find something else around here for sure! But I do love their burgers and fries here. A bit pricey.

The name doesn't exactly scream out THAI food but that's what the main menu is here! Great little place, conveniently located a 2 minute walk from the apartment. In the summer you can also sit outside in the backyard which is delightful, enjoying a chilled Thai beer and yummy food.

Sightseeing
Definitely a must do! Amazing views of Brooklyn Bridge of the downtown Financial Area of Manhattan and even Statue of Liberty from a distance. It's an iconic bridge and I love it from every angle! This is favorite side though. If you want to walk over the bridge, be prepared for lots of tourists and watch out for the fast cyclist!

Parks & Nature
If the weather is nice, you can walk 10 minutes to Franklin Avenue and from there take the ‘S’ shuttle subway to Prospect Park. It has zoo, a lake, a bike path, botanical gardens. Every SUNDAY there is an open food market too which I really enjoy called Smorgaborg, if you want to try lots of different kind of foods and then chill on the grass with some beers.

Getting Around
Another fun way of seeing the city is by using the NYC Ferry. They are nice short rides, each ride only costs $2.75. Make sure it’s a dry and clear day so you can enjoy some great views of the bridges and the Manhattan skyline, and get some fabulous photos from the open top deck. You can buy the tickets on board. https://www.ferry.nyc/
