There are plenty of bars around Brooklyn that serve up Southern-inspired food, but Enid's stands out for its generous vegetarian offerings. More

Calyer looks sharp and (mostly) succeeds in originality. It's best for: a date with an explorer. More

I have an unspoken rule about never ordering the same thing twice at a restaurant. Sure, there are exceptions, such as everything on the menu at Best Pizza, but such occasions run few and far between. So when I found myself ordering Calexico's Chipotle Pork Torta ($11) not once but thrice, I knew it was time for an official love letter. More

Tyler Kord understands that proper sub construction is as much a craft as it is an art. He's got ideas for days, and he's not afraid to swim against the current of bánh mì and burgers. Check out the slideshow above to see six of Kord's quirky creations now available in his new Greenpoint shop More

After a meal here, you might not want to do much more than curl up with your date beneath a warm blanket. With its hearty, comforting fare, Krolewskie Jadlo is best for: a date you won't mind seeing in sweatpants afterward. More

The beets impart a slight graininess, as they often do, but the creamy/crunchy contrast of the goat cheese and the walnuts and apple slices leaves the most lasting impression. More

With rows and rows of heavy wooden picnic tables and a full outdoor barbecue setup that includes a grill and smoker, Greenpoint's t.b.d. is Destination Summer. Easily accessible by East River Ferry or a short bike ride from the Williamsburg Bridge, the expansive bar and beer garden boasts the "biggest, baddest backyard in Brooklyn." More

While most veggie burgers fall apart as soon as you pick them up, the homemade veggie burger ($9, served with either fries or a salad) at Brooklyn Label manages to stay in one piece without being too dense. More

Greenpoint is a rapidly changing neighborhood. It is home to one of the largest Polish communities in New York, and despite the artisan ice cream and Neapolitan pizza places that are opening up, you can still find good old fashioned (and un-trendy) Polish food. Lomzynianka serves up some of the city's most authentic, in an atmosphere that makes you feel that you're dining in someone's home. You seat yourself, the food is rustic and comforting, and the smell of dill wafts out of the kitchen every few minutes. More

In 2008, we published a guide to the Best Doughnuts in New York—but that was three years ago, and new doughnut shops have popped up all over the city. Where can you find the best doughnuts in New York?Check out our exhaustive guide for the answer. More

"Packaged of unshelled sunflower seeds. C'mon bars, gross. And boring!" says Agatha Kulaga of Ovenly, a creative kitchen in the Greenpoint neighborhood of Brooklyn. Agatha and her friend Erin Patinkin started the company about a year ago after being fed up with the predictable freebie bar munchies. They've crafted their own playful takes, like "the ultimate beer nut," a medley of peanuts, Worcestershire sauce, Old Bay, and bacon fat. They're really into bacon fat. More

Because nobody has enough to do this time of year, why not take some time to further your coffee education? Though you can taste dozens of amazing coffees on your own in New York City, there's really nothing like... More

Chicken and anchovies: a combination we can get behind. This warm roast organic chicken from Five Leaves in Greenpoint ($11) isn't exciting on its own, but add a smash of anchovy, the nutty tang of Parmesan, and chipotle mayo and it makes one hell of a sandwich. More

But we loved the Bronx Bomber: insanely moist roast pork with Swiss cheese, barbecue sauce, jalapeño for a bit of heat, and avocado to cool it all down. On hot pressed bread, the components fuse together in a beautiful fatty, tangy union. Such a winner. More

"It's not going to be top-down. It wasn't Fidel Castro who said, 'Hey, let's all grow our own food.'" If you're not quite sold on urban farming, Brian Snyder might be the motivational speaker who could Power-Point you into a... More
