This was a fun post to do. I'm going to have to go back to Napoli for some breadsticks, sounds great. I'm also going to have to check out Joe's Busy Corner. Is it better than Georgi's? Joan from Brooklyn,

You’re very welcome. This was a fun post to do. I’m going to have to go back to Napoli for some breadsticks, sounds great. I’m also going to have to check out Joe’s Busy Corner. Is it better than Georgi’s?

Someone form a local bakery told me about "The Mozzarella Lady" but they didn't know the address. I ended up walking a 1/2 mile on a cold snowy day to find her and her fresh mozzarella ( I ate the fresh - not the smoked). I can still remember how good the cheese was. Georgi seemed really old then (maybe 13 yrs ago) so I am happy to see she and the store are still around. I found Napoli Bakery on my own -- the sesame bread sticks are the best! As for smoked mozzarella - I always got mine at Joe's Busy Corner. They used to smoke the cheese in a small smoker on the sidewalk outside the store. It has been years since I have been there -- and I hope it hasn't lost its old world Brooklyn flavor and its GREAT smoked cheese! http://nymag.com/listings/restaurant/joes-busy-corner/ Thanks for this post – I lived on Lorimer Street for many years before it was the place to be.

You haven't seen Red Hook yet. Debbie, Thats the kind of resounding recommendations I like to hear. Where do I need to go next time I'm in Williamsburg? Marchesa,

Debbie,
Thats the kind of resounding recommendations I like to hear. Where do I need to go next time I’m in Williamsburg?

My in-laws no longer allow us to visit for the weekend unless we should up with a pound or two. As for the bread, you didn't miss anything--Napoli's got the best bread for miles around. Next time, come on a weekend and try their stuffed bread. Olives, cheese, sun-dried tomatoes, baked in slightly oily dough, mmmm. Georgie’s roast beef is not to be missed.

Perhaps it was just your selection of pit stops, but dining in Brooklyn seems way too DIY for yours truly. I suppose scavenging for one's sandwich bread has its charm, but it all seems so...uncivilized. You've done nothing to convince me otherwise of the wilds of Brooklyn. Until you do, I'm sticking to the City (sorry, Manhattan). Let me know when you find something rave-worthy in Brooklyn and I'll ready my passport.
