Food Scene

I love a morning cup of matcha and this very simple, very humble little cafe offers one of the best I've had in Brooklyn, along with a selection of breakfasty items, at a reasonable price. It is very small, so be prepared to 'perch' somewhere if you want to stay.

Sumptuous little bakery and 'general store' a little more than a mile from our place. It's a jaunty morning walk and offers amazing baked goods, coffee and local products.

CLOSED UNTIL FURTHER NOTICE Another gorgeous little jewel of a place not too far away and en route to Prospect Park/Brooklyn Museum/Brooklyn Libary & Botanical Gardens. Eleven36 offers pastries, coffee drinks and a carefully-sourced selection of local produce and groceries. Amazing (if pricey!) eggs from the region and a daily pre-prepared fritatta. They also offer 1-2 gluten-free pastries daily.

Sweet little Latin American coffeehouse of the kind I adore, with a great breakfast and lunch menu, gluten-free treats and (most importantly?) Counter Culture Coffee.

Our favorite Jamaican restaurant in Brooklyn and the place that makes a definitive 'Jerk Chicken'. Just a short trot from the Franklin and Brooklyn Museum stops on the local train.

This is a fun, low-key neighborhood spot for arepas and sangria! A great place to take the family for a delicious, reasonably-priced meal and to enjoy the relaxed atmosphere.

It's a bit of a trek from our place, but we love the atmosphere and the yummy, juicy plates of food that come with a crisp, fresh salad, huge slices of avocado, plantains and delicately spiced black beans. A great place to unwind on a Friday or for a relaxed weekend date.

A bit off of the beaten track, but worth the hike, ride or walk to try one of the best - if not THE BEST - breakfast sandwich in Brooklyn and Counter Culture espresso coffees so expertly pulled that they don't require sweetener. About a mile away from your morning ride, walk or jog in Prospect Park - or a shorter walk from the R train Prospect Av Station.

A convenient stop en route to downtown to sample some of the best New York eats under one roof, and to grab some Trader Joe's staples. Great for families. Right on several subway lines (Nevins or DeKalb stops).

Perelandra might be a bit pricy, but they are the real deal: ethically sourced produce and products, and some unusual items you can't find elsewhere. They also have a deli-style cafe, pre-packaged salads and a decent juice bar.

I add this location because it is fairly accessible by train from Grand Army Plaza and they are known for locally-sourced products, a superior roast chicken and hard-to-find gourmet items like Luxardo Cherries. I love their gluten-free buckwheat raisin bread baked in upstate New York.
