Breakfast at Rocky’s, by George Fiala

Besides being one of the best Irish bars in New York City, Rocky Sullivan’s is where the working class of Red Hook go after work to relax, enjoy a hockey game and have pizza or some good Irish stew. No matter what, one always has a friend at Rocky’s.

Yum, breakfast sliders!

Now one can enjoy Rocky’s before work as well. This month they have expanded into the early morning hours. Breakfast is now served between 8 am and 11 am, Mondays through Saturdays.

The food is freshly made in their kitchen, and the menu was created by George Kornienko, one of Rocky’s owners, but better known as their star bartender.
The fare includes a heaping bowl of oatmeal topped with a generous portion of blueberries, for $5; bacon or fried chicken sliders with eggs and cheese, served with home fries for $8; a breakfast pizza, also for $8.

The topper, or perhaps perfect game, is the Sandy Koufax special – named after the great Jewish Dodger pitcher. For $10 you get a hefty portion of smoked salmon atop a pita replete with red onions, grape tomatoes and cream cheese.

Of course, this is a bar, and if you would like to start your day with a Bloody Mary or Mimosa, this can be done for a measly $3. And yes, Rocky’s has coffee as well.
We think this is a great idea, and addition to Red Hook, as long as one remembers to go to work afterwards!

OPINION: Say NO to the Brooklyn Marine Terminal land grab, by John Leyva

The Brooklyn Marine Terminal (BMT) Task Force is barreling toward a decision that will irreversibly reshape Red Hook and the Columbia Street Waterfront. Let’s be clear: the proposed redevelopment plan is not about helping communities. It’s a land grab by developers disguised as “revitalization,” and it must be stopped. This isn’t urban planning, it’s a bad real estate deal. We

International students are increasingly targeted by the Trump Administration. Not only did the the president threaten to shut down Harvard to them, but he suspended visa interviews for all foreigners wishing to apply to any American university.

Gay restaurants were never just about the food by Michael Quinn Review of “Dining Out: First Dates, Defiant Nights, and Last Call Disco Fries at America’s Gay Restaurants,” by Erik Piepenburg

Appetizer I stepped into the original Fedora, on West 4th and Charles, nearly 20 years ago. I was looking for a place to have a quick drink. Its neon sign drew me to its ivy-covered building, its entrance a few steps below street level. Inside: red light, a pink portable stereo on the bar next to a glass bowl of

MUSIC: Wiggly Air, by Kurt Gottschalk

The rhythm, the rebels. The smart assault of clipping. returned last month with a full-on assault. Dead Channel Sky is the hip-hop crew’s first album in five years (CD, LP, download on Sub Pop Records) and only their fifth full-length since their 2014 debut. It was worth the wait. After a quick intro that fills the table with topics in
