Full dim sum experience in Chinatown. Come for breakfast/brunch (before 2pm), and point at what you want as the carts stacked with bamboo steamer baskets roll by you. Be prepared for a line if you don't come early!

The largest park in Brooklyn, great for a stroll, jog or bike ride, picnics, or just sit on a bench and people watch. If you're here in the summer, check out the summer stage schedule for concerts.
