A quick ride on the L-Train to Morgan Ave will get you to one of the most popular restaurants in Brooklyn. Awesome wood fired pizza. Grab a pie from the separate takeout installment next door, and have a beer outside in the garden/tiki bar!

Awesome little ramen spot. Very cramped, with no room to move, as most ramen restaurants are in the city. That being said, a very comfortable atmosphere and delicious food. Try to avoid peak hours as the line can get a bit too long for such a quick meal.

Must try the pierogies and borscht. A classic spot in the East Village for Ukrainian food, and for good reason.

Brand new transplant of a famous ramen restaurant in Tokyo! This is as authentic a ramen experience you can presently find in New York, but be prepared for long waits, and a different style of dining.

Really solid food. They do a LOT of dishes really well, in a very cool interior space. It is a little cramped, and a little expensive, but worth the wait if you have the time. Definitely recommend.

Amazing garden! A must see in Brooklyn, with some truly incredible greenhouses and outdoor gardens. If you find yourself here in the fall, keep an eye on their website to see when the cherry blossoms will be in bloom.

My favorite museum in the city. I could spend WEEKS inside this place. It is truly amazing. It is also extremely busy, and can be stressfully packed. The Guggenheim Hall of Minerals is particularly amazing.

Really incredible exhibits at the Met. It is donation based, so much more budget friendly. Also not as busy during non peak hours. Must check out the Moroccan Court in the Arab Lands Exhibit.
