Closing Bell: Yellow Hook?
Pardon Me For Asking dug up this old map of the Brooklyn waterfront. Of particular interest to us was the existence of an area called Yellow Hook to the south of what was, and is still, known as Red Hook. Very, Very Old Map of Carroll Gardens and Red Hook [PMFA]

Don’t forget to visit Grand Sechzuan, which received nods from Village Voice (years best) and The New York Times this past year.
Yes the Gelato is made by the very same guy. And he has a bar set up in the front so you can go and just eat gelato. And the best part? Its still BYO!!!
Thanks! As soon as I get down to Bay Ridge and snap some storefront photos, you’ll start seeing these as ROTDs.

Hey guys — I handle the daily restaurant reviews and I welcome your suggestions! Any recommendations besides Piattini and Petit Oven?
tanoreen is already in the ROTD. Along with only 2 others, one of which isn’t even open anymore (ChipShop).
Come on Mr. B, start listing some Ridge restaurants!
Oh, Italiana, what about Tanoreen, the um is it Turkish restaurant, in Bay Ridge? That is one of the best New York restaurants. I’d been meaning to try it for years, and finally went for lunch after ordering linoleum, of all things. Was very good. Definitely worth a trip. I might have noticed they don’t have alcohol, though, not sure. That’s a drawback.
Heartily agree with the recommendations made above for Petit Oven (on Bay Ridge Ave) and Piattini, both wonderful.
Italiana, is the gelato from that guy in Bensonhurst who’s supposed to be like a gelato genius?
