As the name implies, the Brisket here is to die for. Drinks are a good price, ambiance is a cool twist on the south, and the staff are really kind.

Sightseeing

Free before noon on Saturdays, and well worth the excursion. I once fell asleep in the garden for a few hours until a guard woke me up … the most peaceful spot in town.

Everything Else

Brooklyn's local food fair. Get the doughnuts from "DOUGH". There's a nice milkshake stand to wash that down too.
