Once upon a time, Brooklyn was not exactly known for its fancy food, aside from just a few classic joints — the River Café, Peter Luger’s, Junior’s, Lundy’s, Gage & Tollner, Gargiulo’s — but the last ten years or so have seen a steady rise in the quantity of quality restaurants in the world’s greatest borough, and you can try many of them during the annual Dine In Brooklyn festival. From March 15 to 25, more than two hundred Brooklyn eateries will be offering special prix-fixe lunches and brunches for $20.10 and dinners for $25. Among the many participants are the Pearl Room and Fushimi in Bay Ridge, Bacchus in Boerum Hill, Chestnut and La Petite Provence in Carroll Gardens, Bubby’s in DUMBO, Madiba in Fort Greene, Alchemy and Melt in Park Slope, Mazzat in Red Hook, and Zenkichi in Williamsburg. Oh, there are also these places called the River Café, Junior’s, and Gargiulo’s. In addition, a bunch of smaller restaurants will be offering an even better deal, cutting prices in half, so brunch and lunch for two is $20.10, and dinner is $25 per couple, at such dining establishments as Saint Germain, Rice, the Smoke Joint, Aperitivo, Gialeti’s Café, Chipshop, and Il Fometto. Mangia, bambinos!
