Guidebook for Brooklyn
Food Scene
For the best hummus in town, get the Sabich Salad. My favorite breakfast dish is the Gotan Breakfast. You can also just come here for a coffee and treat as the shop is really sunny and full of energy. There is also outdoor seating. They are only open until 5 PM though!
