New Cafe for The Heights
Brooklyn Heights Blog has the scoop (and the photos) on the latest addition to the neighborhood’s culinary scene: A cute spot called the Iris cafe opened yesterday at 20 Columbia Place in Willowtown. Anyone tried it yet? Willowtown’s Iris Cafe – the Photos! [BHB] GMAP

well, IJ- benson has been low and coarse many many times for no good reason. His initial post this morning is a case in point. I’m simply concerned for his blood pressure, which he says reading b’stoner raises.
> We all snark it up here, there’s nothing wrong with that.
Word.
Nomi- he certainly does. ANd he certainly is.
11217, you happy phantom (said non-hominem), I was referring to his Waverly opinions. We all snark it up here, there’s nothing wrong with that.
I don’t think being well-traveled is an excuse to make nasty comments about a new small business, or anything else for that matter. I would imagine many, many people on this blog are well traveled, both here and abroad.
I’ve been to every state in the lower 48. Does that mean I can shit on this new cafe too?
(No pun intended given Benson’s original comment)
Telling someone to stop reading is like telling them to STFU, in my opinion. One is low and coarse, the other is high-minded, both make me cringe.
Let me surmise as benson and I have talked extensively at PLUSA gatherings: Benson travels this fair country of ours a lot, and sees how many people live lives that are respectable and dignified and content. Then he logs on here and sees people extolling a few select options over and above what he sees in his travels. The breadth he witnesses in his workaday life perhaps clues him into perspectives we wouldn’t otherwise see.
oh goody. Another day, another benson rant. If you’re so fed up with the brownstoner mindset why do you keep reading it? Take care of your health. Let the blood pressure go down- stop reading.
I’m with Nomi and IJ- I love little places like this. I wish some would open up in Crown Heights. And I’m all for small businesses and people who run them. Good for them and I hope the place is successful.
BD, someone mentioned to me the other day about how Brooklyn Heights’s brownstones are starting to turn over to young families as the older generation moves or dies off – now that DUMBO is filled to capacity. So yeah, you’re right IMO.
