On Greg

Greg is known as one of the most beloved and creative chefs in NYC. His first restaurant, Olmsted is now a Brooklyn fixture, with its stunning backyard and ever-changing local, seasonally inspired menu. His latest, Maison Yaki, where everything on the menu is $10 or less, means more people can enjoy his brilliance. Greg’s Brooklyn list is fantastic. He and I agree on Miss Ada. Speedy Romeo has long been on my list of Must-Try’s and Rucola sounds like something I need in my life.

This is my go-to spot when I’m in the mood for really good, really creative pizza. They even have a pizza topped with pastrami on an everything bagel crust! I love the pizza so much that I collaborated with them to turn an Olmsted dish into a pizza.

This is a simple, great bar and it’s the perfect place to hang out when I get off work. My go-to order is a Negroni, burger and fries. It’s the best.

This is an amazing neighborhood spot, but the food and atmosphere make it so much more. It’s so inviting, and a great place for a casual dinner when I’m not in the restaurant. Great Italian menu and the food never disappoints.

This Thai restaurant is worth the visit. I also probably order delivery from there at least a few times a month, that’s how much I love it. The papaya salad and all the curries, it’s so spicy but totally worth the pain.

Chef Tomer makes some of the best Israeli food in the area. When the weather is especially nice, I like to make the walk over and grab a seat outside. The food is so fresh and addicting, it’s the perfect meal when I have a day off.

One of my go-to spots when I have some time to kill, or when I have people visiting. It’s such a fun place to walk around, and of course eat tons of Japanese food!
