Best udon and gyoza in Brooklyn, in my humble (Japanese-American) opinion. You can catch the subway there or hop in a cab. They just opened up another restaurant walking distance from us! Samurai Papa. It's in the guide.

Want super secret hole in the wall street food that's ethnic and famous? Try A and A Doubles bakery for what the local Trinidadian population says is the best place to get a double (which is a fried bread and chick pea street snack) in all of NYC. Careful because you'll walk right past this place without ever knowing how famous and how good it is! We didn't know it was here for years!

Hands down the best restaurant in Bed Stuy and quickly becoming world famous! I get inquiries from France asking if we are near that pizza place called Saraghina so there must be a television program about it there. Seriously, it's amazing! Get the cappacola pizza or anything else on the menu. EAT HERE!

Parks & Nature

This park is named after the famous community activist by the same name and who's descendants are neighbors of ours. It was formerly named Tompkins Park which you may have heard of, if you are an art aficionado, because of William Merritt Chase's paintings. Chase lived by the park and created several famous paintings depicting our park! Today the park is a lively and safe place to enjoy some nice weather or some music in the amphitheater. Look closely and you may see the location in some of your favorite TV shows like The American's final scenes and many more!
