Brooklyn 2011

Not for Tourists Guide to Brooklyn 2011, half anti-guidebook, half urban manual, is the ultimate little black book. It reveals everything from the best parks, art galleries and cultural landmarks, to simply where you can catch a movie and find the best bagels in town. Meticulously researched and written by folks who actually live there, NFT presents the good, bad and downright hideous in NYC`s hippest borough. All new pizza joints, new live music venues and brand new brunch spots have been added to this year`s listings. Whether you`ve called Brooklyn your home for decades or just arrived last night, you ignore at your peril this new 2010 edition with its caustic neighbourhood summaries and refreshing, politically incorrect descriptions. In over 200 pages of glorious content, this survival handbook features simply everywhere, from Greenpoint and Bushwick to Borough Park and Midwood, also covering nostalgic Coney Island, the loveliest parks, colleges and universities. Designed for street-savvy locals, commuters, business travellers, and yes, tourists, NFT Brooklyn includes a highly graphical map for every neighbourhood featured.User-friendly map icons highlight everything from liquor stores, supermarkets, movie theaters, and restaurants, to subways, gas stations, banks, libraries and pharmacies. So if you`re meeting friends in an unfamiliar neighbourhood or find yourself off the beaten track, NFT is a must-have resource. But NFT doesn`t waste your time by serving up five zillion options just because they`re in a database: contributors have gone back to eat, drink, dance and shop their way through last year`s listings to check that they`re still worth knowing.
