What up w/ Picket Fence in Ditmas Park
The food was never all that great, but it was the best option in the neighborhood until the Farm on Adderly opened last year. And it was a great place to bring your kids - until they replaced all the chairs with uncomfortable benches along the sides and now it's impossible to navigate through that space with a stroller.
I wish the new owners would open up the seating a bit and make it more comfortable in there, I would also love to have another option for dining out with family in tow
A good Indian restaurant in Brooklyn?
I posted on another thread about the new restaurant on CIA and Parkville called Sultan Grill. They have turkish and pakistani menus and the mixed vegetable curry I had there was fantastic, the vegetables were NOT overcooked at all and it tasted very fresh and good.
Sultan Grill on Coney Island Avenue @ Parkville
The pakistani menu is brand new, when they opened it was only turkish (we had a nice humus and salad appetizer, and grilled meat). We went back earlier this week and they had the new menu.
I tried one of the goat curries and my wife had chicken tika and we shared the mix vegetables. The spices tasted very fresh and distinct, the curry was not too oily like some of the other places I've tried. I will go back again, but so far I'm impressed and I think the food is better than just about any other indian-food-style restaurant I've tried in Brooklyn. The fresh baked nan bread is delish!
The owner is very friendly, and the service was great. His mother is the one cooking, and he said they have a connection to the Bombay Palace "chain" of restaurants in NYC and also in Toronto.
