Guidebook for Brooklyn
Food Scene
Not too much of a scene but still fun and vibrant. Really good food. Solid cocktails. Ask for Papi Nieto. He's always working. Try to sit in the window and you can the sunset and a view of the Whitney Museum at the same time. Also, the only piece of the original Meatpacking District.
