Every bit worth the calories!!!! This genuine French bakery is a neighborhood treasure. It’s right off the Myrtle/Wyckoff Subway station (about a 18min walk from the house). The walk will make you feel better after eating their delicious breads and baked goods. They also have an excellent assortment of vegan baked good (including croissants) that are outstanding. Do yourself a favor and try their almond croissant.

Nene has authentic Mexican Street food. It’s a 8 minute Uber ride away or a 15 minute bus ride. Just walk up Cornelia to Wilson Avenue. Catch the B60 and get off on Trotman. It’s about 1 block away on 14 Star street. Their Taco Tuesday’s are pretty packed, but generally you can get in and out pretty quickly. If you are in the area and want to work off those taco calories you can do some local shopping on Knickerbocker that’s famous for urban street wear.

It’s on the other side of Brooklyn, but so worth the trip. Outdoor activities for all ages. Bring a picnic or cook on one of the park’s grills. Amazing views! Stroll the park while eating Ample Hills ice cream. It will take you about an hour commute to get to the park; but you can pack light because there’s a pretty good grocery store right in the park (near the soccer fields).
