New Year's Eats (and Drinks) in Brooklyn

22convivium.jpgNo matter how far behind your are on Christmas shopping, you can still get a jump on your New Year's plans — but you've got to act fast. Over on Chowhound, there's a thread where users are posting New Year's Eve prix fixe menus from their favorite outer-borough spots. So far, they've listed menus from Convivium Osteria and Cocotte, and both are looking pretty tasty. Any other recommended restaurants to enjoy the final meal of 2006? And for the barflies out there who prefer to ring in the New Year in a blur, which Brooklyn bars have the best parties going on?

In The Heights/Cobble Hill/Boerum Hill area for restaraunts, some good picks for N.Y.E. would be: Henry's End (upper Henry St.), The Heights Cafe (Montague St.), and Apt. 138 (Smith St.). All pretty delicious spots with good deals for the night. As far as bars go, Last Exit is always a good time and free though gets a bit too crowded; newer bar Camp I think is free (and usually features good DJs), and Magnetic Field has a big show with The A-Bones featuring Ira Kaplan of Yo La Tengo and some other bands and DJs; not sure of the cover. I can't recommend anything in Williamsburg as frankly, I hate the place.

Sheep Station--the new Aussie-themed bar and restaurant on 4th Avenue and Douglass Street--is hosting a New Year's party. They have a cozy fireplace in the back room and local artists' work on the walls, and a small portion of the proceeds go to two local Brooklyn theater companies: The Sum of Us and One Year Lease. For $60 (credit cards in advance) or $65 (cash at the door), there is a 4-hour open bar (8:30-12:30), champagne
toast, party favors, and guaranteed good people.
To buy tickets in advance, go to www.oneyearlease.org.
Here’s the address info: Sheep Station. 149 4th Avenue
at Douglas St. M/R to Union; N/R/M/D to Pacific, B/Q/2/3/4/5 to Atlantic. The bar is cash only.
It is something new and different in the Slope...
