Drinks & Nightlife

Upscale wine bar, also serving cocktails and a menu of panini, salad, meats, and cheeses. Ask for Doria or Chris, and tell them I sent you! Don't leave without trying the truffle grilled cheese.

Stop in for a tasting flight before your grocery run at Foodtown. They offer food platters with your flight, and you can even purchase bottles for around $15 (saves you a trip to the liquor store)!

Food Scene

Although it's technically a bowling alley, this place is a more a combination bar / restaurant / music venue. Go here for high-quality but casual late night dining. Best fried chicken of my life.

The perfect brunch spot. Grab a table outside, work through the cocktail menu, and people watch along Berry street. You'll feel like you're at the center of the civilized world.

Expensive, no reservations, but well worth the wait. My favorite restaurant in the borough...best suggestion is to try on a Sunday evening for dinner, when the wait is less crazy.

Essentials

24-hour market, great beer selection, mostly organic (and quite odd) grocery items. For a more "traditional" grocery experience, go to Foodtown.

Modern, clean grocery store, reminds me of Safeway or Vons on the west coast (although no club cards necessary). Good place to stock up on essentials at reasonable prices.

Everything Else

Perfectively located just off the subway stop, with one of the best wine selections around (walk alway the back into the "wine cellar"). Prices are reasonable, and they sometimes have tastings.
