Incredible park. Walk, jog, or bike around it's outer 3 mile path. Or sun bathe, play football or frisbee on its acres of open meadow. Same designer as Central Park, but he preferred this one. True

A hidden treasure. Worth the trip and very special. Take the subway or car or 103 bus to Ditmas Park. Marvel at the mansions and manicured lawns. These NY suburban homes can cost $2 million each.

Great Italian food in a dress up or down cozy atmosphere. If you go to Park Slope, people will ask if you know Al Di La. Expect a wait, but the amazing food makes it all worth it.

Local favorite low-key bar. Too trendy and popular to be called a dive bar, but it's like - Brooklyn's version of dive bar :) Free popcorn makes it a popular destination. There is a garden in back.

Essentials

Huge grocery store for all of your cooking needs. Be prepared to carry your bag as you walk an avenue over, however. Perfect for light objects - disaster for too many heavy ones. ;)
