What it is: You need to ask?
Why we love it: Pizza at Grimaldi’s, fried calamari at Randazzo’s, pupusas at the Red Hook ball fields, beer at Brooklyn Brewery.
Who to bring: Brooklyn fetishists from out of town, aspiring brewmasters who would enjoy the free brewery tours.
What to order: They only serve one thing here, but you can bring in pizza.
Brooklyn Brewery fun fact: Brooklyn Brewery founder Steve Hindy learned to brew his own beer when he was an Associated Press reporter stationed in the Middle East, because the Muslim culture did not permit access to alcohol.
