No. 7

No. 7 is a new eatery in Fort Greene just a short walk from my apartment. I shared a gorgeous meal here last night with my dear friend, colleague, and neighbor, Karen Chahal.

The entrance to No. 7 is hidden behind the C train at Lafayette, and in true Brooklyn fashion, doesn’t have a sign or any other markings to denote its presence. Local flavors, infectious laughter, solid conversation, and a full-bodied Syrah were plentiful, so I am thrilled that Karen, an avid food reader and writer, found it for us.

Karen is the food writer, not I, so take a peek at her delicious little blog, amateurepicure.blogspot.com. I’m sure she’ll write a lovely post about No. 7 soon.
