my rock, my day one. By far my favorite Vietnamese in the city. It’s right next to Lucien, so if you don’t have Lucien $$$, it’s the best option for the people. Michelin Star Bahn Mi’s and those aren’t even the star of the menu! Please treat this place as you would any prized possession. ⚔️

Delicious, cheap, quiet Vietnamese food on 1st and 1st. Let me customize my vermicelli bowel ❤️.
Realizing as I write this one that, holy shit, I’ve gone here a couple times this past year and originally got the rec from the PI newsletter. We are full circle and thriving!

Great Vietnamese spot in uptown. I take everyone who comes into town here. Absolutely amazing spin on Vietnamese food.

a beautiful inlet coffee & wine shop in the heart of Fort Greene. Run by some amazing, industrious friends of mine (Darryl Nuhn & Brad Ogbonna) featuring food from my guy, my genius, Nate Cox. Ferris Bueller Voice: “The menu is always changing but the vibe is so consistently choice. I highly recommend!”

Another Brooklyn best! A night ping-ponging between Prima & Rhodora ain’t half bad. Closest thing to Cheers i’ve ever experienced: a special place with friends who always know your name. Incredible wine selection too! Some of favorite chefs (Tecla Esposito, Kia Damron, Angela Dimayuga etc) have all done pop-ups there. Perf place 2 be!

Honorable mention. If you’ve hung out with me the past year or so, he’s my favorite topic. A fellow virgo, my acting inspiration and exercise guru lol In all sincerity, I find his work groundbreaking at times. The quintessential post-Pacino, James Dean renaissance leading man/character actor of his time. Do yaself a favor, Go watch Pope of Greenwich Village (1985) , Barfly (1987) and soak it in. I think they are both free on Y*utube 👀
