Highlights

Cobble Hill is the slightly more affordable neighbor to Brooklyn Heights. It has the brownstones and tree-lined streets you'll often find in Brooklyn, but it's also got a bit more flavor. Italian flavors, to be precise, in the form of the pizza shops, coffee bars and bakeries, plus an infusion of new hip restuarants and SoHo-syle boutiques. Cobble Hill stretches roughly from Atlantic Avenue to Degraw Street and from Hicks Street to Smith Street.  Show more »

  4. Tapas, Italian style

    Small-plate sharing isn't just a Spanish thing. The Italian version of tapas, known as cicchetti in Venice, stuzzichini in Southern Italy and antipasti to many Italian Americans, are great for passing around over a few glasses of vino. While true cicchetti dishes tend to be modest -- olives, sardines, meatballs -- you can make a meal out of some of the more Americanized small plates, such as scaled-down versions of lasagna and mini sandwiches. So, no matter what your appetite, you can satisfy your hunger and culinary curiosity at the same time.
