Seafood Salad with Avocado
Broadwalk
one of their handmade onesies!
Hi again. I was wondering how much would it cost to take a cab from chinatown to brooklyn. Would riding the subway be safe during the early morning? Thanks!
I believe the Brooklyn bridge is near Chinatown, so you can walk across.
But it all depends on what part of Brooklyn you are going to.
the subway is safe pretty much all the time but referencing your earlier question the neighborhood above the subway may not be very nice. brooklyn is huge, don't plan on walking to SUNY Downstate from manahattan - much much much too far and even more dangerous. rough estimate on taxi $20.
Thanks for the help guys! It'll be my first time in New york and I'll be on my own so Im a little bit nervous, hopefully things will turn out okay. Looking forward to exploring NY :)
Brooklyn is a big place, and has around 3 million inhabitants. Do you know the name of the neighborhood where you will be staying? and what do you mean "early in the morning"? 1am, 3am?
Sure you can go to Coney Island or the Botanical Gardens but the real fun of Brooklyn is the people. Most of them are irritable, some are threatening, but they are never uninteresting. They may not even want to talk to you but if you are nice to them you will really catch them off guard. The best places for 'people' are bars, deli's, park benches and subway platforms.

Prospect Park is one of the finest creations of the landscape architects Frederick Law Olmsted and Calvert Vaux, whose other notable achievements include Central Park, the National Zoo in Washington, DC, and the Emerald Necklace in Boston. The 526-acre park, begun in 1866, has a 60-acre lake on its east side, a 90-acre Long Meadow on the west, and Brooklyn's last remaining woodlands in between. Prospect Park is the site of one of the Revolutionary Wars' fiercest battles.
VT really needs to add a category for Thai!
Joya has great, cheap thai food and of course a good beer/wine selection.
the portions are huge and the price is decent. a good place for a large group for thai.
the food is not as spicy as I like, so if you're into the serious spicy food, make sure to tell the server when you order!
I was very excited when this place showed up a couple years ago on Flatbush. It's your typical little restaurant--meaning LITTLE. A few seats, order at the window, expect to pay under $10. But the tacos, the burritos, the tortas, all of it is SO good. It's obviously fresh and they put loads of meat, cheese and vegetables on the food. You have your choice of chorizo, beef, chicken, pork or beans on everything.
Their menu has expanded a great deal since we were first there AND they also deliver to the immediate zoned area. Anything with chorizo--the hard shelled tacos have always been a favorite food of mine. You also have a choice of 4 different hot sauces and about 2000 more you can purchase off the shelf.
