At this pioneering Bed-Stuy restaurant, owners Craig Samuel and Ben Grossman (both of the Smoke Joint) ably merge two trends—Greenmarket and upscale Southern. Appetizers emphasize salads, like the toss of watermelon, arugula and spicy pickled ginger. The rest of the menu hews closer to Cajun and Creole standards: a juicy half chicken sports a salt-and-chili rub, and garlicky shrimp with tomato gravy are served over fluffy grits. Peaches is a progressive addition to a still-emerging ’hood—guts like those play well in the South, and in Brooklyn, too. continue reading »

A full-service repair shop–we’ll fix your flat, or take your bike apart and put it back together. Our goal is always to make a bike better than it was when it came in. Of course, we sell things too. We have a line of Raleigh bikes, a stock of parts of all types, and accessories to make it easier to use your bike every day, for every purpose. The word ‘bespoke’ isn’t too popular here in the US, but it’s an English word meaning ‘custom-made’ or ‘made to order.’ It’s used mostly to refer to clothing and of course has the connotation of highest quality. I’d like to think that I can offer all of that in a bicycle. I’m here to provide exactly the bicycle that each client wants. I’ll start with the frame that best fits your needs and go from there. This can be an affordable process, but depending on what you want the bike to do or to look like, the only limit is physics. continue reading »
