Pomme de Terre

From NYMag.com:

When the Farm on Adderley opened in the culinary wasteland of Ditmas Park in 2006, the neighborhood rejoiced. Things are looking even brighter on the food front now that the Farm’s owners, Gary Jonas and his wife, Allison, have teamed up with Brooklyn gastropreneur Jim Mamary on their second venture, an unassuming French bistro named Pomme de Terre. The unswervingly Gallic menu, designed by Farm on Adderley chef Tom Kearney, sticks to standards like duck confit, skate in brown butter, tarte Tatin, and a croque monsieur. “Pretty straight- forward stuff,” says Kearney. Still, churning your own butter, making your own ketchup, and dry-aging your own beef speak to something a little more ambitious. And if the twice-cooked fries are as crisp and delicious as they are at the Farm, Pomme de Terre will do its name proud

Brooklyn Dim Sum

Now that fall weather has taken over, I cannot think of a better way to begin the season than to test out the dim sum scene in Brooklyn.  As a recent Manhattanite, I barely went to dim sum in Chinatown but after reading the Brooklyn Paper’s dim sum guide this past summer, there was nothing I’ve wanted to eat more.  Below are the recommended restaurants that I will be going to one by one.
