Neighborhood Recs
Ridgewood, have you heard of it?! Little known fact: the first apartment I ever lived in outside of my parent's home in NYC was in Ridgewood, 15 years ago. I spent a decade bouncing around Brooklyn before returning and moving the studio, too, in 2019. If you come visit, here's my neighborhood recs:
-If it's a lovely day, call in a BLT to Norma's (they only have outdoor seating) and don't miss the flourless chocolate walnut cookie
-If you want a truly memorable taco, head to the Wyckoff location of Taqueria al Pastor
-If you need a coffee, get a Bee's Knees latte at Nomad (right by the M train if that's your route home!)
-If you want to lounge for a casual meal and a good drink, Julia's is the spot
-If you know a child, you must stop by Forever Young. Best kids shop in NYC!
