Guidebook for Brooklyn
Food Scene
If you want the traditional New York City bodega experience, this is it! My old favorite breakfast item here is a Turkey-bacon Egg and Swiss with Tapatio hot-sauce on an Everything Bagel. These guys do it right. Standard bodega drip coffee. Basically everything else you need too, and only a couple steps to the train. Perfect spot for the morning rush.

One of my favorite, if not all-time favorite, Indian/Pakistani/Bangladeshi restaurants. Flavorful plates, super cheap, and so so so delicious. Friendliest bunch of folks ever too. Get the samosas and pakoras here, along with pretty much everything else.

Jen's Roti Shop
838 Flatbush AvenueYou're welcome
Not the most comforting of places, but without a doubt the best jerk chicken in NYC. Get it to go and head to the park or find a local bar where you can dig in.

Parks & Nature
Good skating, or roller skating, depending on the time of year. Also, walking towards this place and exiting the park further north at Lincoln Road will take you to the B, Q and Shuttle trains, which makes for a great way to begin or end the day.

3mile loop around this park is the best run you'll get in Brooklyn. Lots of really cool places in here to check out. Do a little exploring. Paddle boats, bird watching, nature trails, look-outs, bike rentals, petting zoos, botanical gardens and so much more. Keep an eye out for the Smorgasborg!

Everything Else
This Russian Baths is one of my favorite things about this neighborhood. For $40 you can spend all day in the dry or wet sauna, cold pool, hot tub, and steam room. Enjoy the rooftop deck too. Great food here. Service is atypically passive, but responsive.

Sightseeing
Walk around aimlessly in the historic neighborhood of Ditmas Park. It feels like you've stepped out of both time and place when you're in these double-wide median streets with sprawling lawns and victorian homes.

Arts & Culture
Chances are, you may be staying with us because you're going to something at the King's Theatre. If not, you should absolutely check to see if something is going on while you're crashing with us. An epic old theater decked to the nines with gaudy grandeur.
