Guidebook for Brooklyn
Food Scene
Family-run Thai restaurant was the first Thai restaurant set up in our Bay Ridge area and has steadfastly remained the favorite even with many other upstarts seen since! Note that Monday nights are closed. Give a little extra time for your meal -- there is a slow authenticity to their meal prep and presentation. It's a nice spot.

Drinks & Nightlife
Awesome pub. Great bartender. Karaoke on Friday nights. Used as a backdrop in a few movies given its beautiful tin ceiling, checkered floor and antiquated bar.

Getting Around
Better stop than shown on this AIRBNB Map is the CLOSER Senator Street and Third Avenue stop (directly across from the little park, and a stone's throw from Bay Thai restaurant that I mentioned above.) X27 Express bus is a one stop commute to the lower tip of Manhattan - Battery Park (approximately 12-30 minute ride depending on traffic.) X37 takes you more towards midtown via FDR Drive, crossing town from East to West along 23rd Street.
