Mile End: montreal jewish deli. the smoked meat sandwich is the way to go, but their apple fritter was also spectacular. http://www.mileendbrooklyn.com/
Rucola: new Italian in a more residential block of Dean St. Yummy and nice wine list. http://www.rucolabrooklyn.com/
Building on Bond: great to hang out with a laptop for hours. Not a food destination (ie, don't bother). http://buildingonbond.com/
Having just left Brooklyn for Amsterdam (again, 2 years later), I feel the need to chronicle my greatest food hits before I forget them. I'll aim to do this neighborhood by neighborhood... I hope that others can also add their comments so that this can be a food resource for anyone.
I'm a little bit obsessed with food. I think that a mediocre meal is a colossal waste of time. When planning a trip, I look for places to eat before I even start looking for a hotel. So, I hope that this can be a resource for any who wants a good meal in Brooklyn. This list favors organic, local, high quality ingredients, good vegetarian options, and informed staff that care about food and wine. Not all the restaurants on this list fit the bill, but many do.
