Restaurant Update
Cookshop looks like it's worth a visit (it's a new local, sustainable food restaurant in Chelsea). Also, a very purple-looking "beet" restaurant opened last night on 7th Ave and 9th Street (Park Slope) -- it smelled good. Might have to give it a try.
Speaking of restaurants, Add Your Own is a new wiki-style review site for restaurants/bars/etc. The Park Slope section is pretty big. I couldn't help but contribute a few bits of information about restaurants I like. It's amazing how Brooklyn restaurants are getting top billing in Zagats and elsewhere these days -- Applewood (right up the street!) is one of the top three restaurants in New York, Stone Park Cafe and Al Di La get recommended consistently, and Rosewater gets top billing for brunch. I've always felt spoiled by all the amazing restuarant options nearby, and I've wondered whether Manhattanites really appreciated it -- now they can't ignore us!

Well, I don't want a bunch of Manhattanites coming into our neighborhood making it more difficult for me to get a table. As long as the Park Slope restaurants can stay in business with mostly local consumers, I'm fine with our restaurants being slightly under the radar. I am, however, OK with people from Manhattan coming into Park Slope to eat with Brooklyn friends.
