Get Your Quick Burger Fix at Mother’s
Bar food is always a conundrum. What was once a simple bowl of salted nuts has mutated into a demand for organic avocados and lightly-fried esoterica. It can be delicious, granted, but in a go-for-broke gimmick bar scene like the one that permeates Williamsburg it can be overwrought when all
Music Nerds Rejoice! Musical Bingo tonight at Berry Park

Five and Dime Sale at Spoonbill & Sugartown
First come sushi restaurants, then comes a chain drug store, then a palm reader, and then a neighborhood has reached the peak of gentrification. The sushi and Thai joints arrived on Bedford Ave long ago, but the palm reader spot and Duane Reade are brand spanking new. (As are a
Stuff Yourself With Italy at La Nonna
If you’re looking for a slightly nicer Italian restaurant, but not so nice you’ll get stabbed with a fork for using the wrong one, go to La Nonna. Their classic Italian dishes are the cheesiest, freshest and most tomato-ey you could hope to stuff your face with. Even a simple dish
Painfully Cheap Drinks at Lady Jay’s Tonight
Happy Birthday Dr. Seuss! You could celebrate by eating green eggs and ham, wearing one of those god awful Cat in the Hat hats or painting a giant star upon your belly. Or you could go to Lady Jay’s for their crazy happy hour specials, that may or may not
