Williamsburg - Where’s Cool? Weekly Round Up
The first thing you’re gonna need is a bike (your call whether or not it’s fixed gear). Time’s Up! has you covered, with classes in—what else—DIY bicycle repair, as well as rides around the city. This totally beats waiting for the train, by the way.

Instead of arguing about who makes Brooklyn’s best Mexican food, just go to Mexico 2000. A hole-in-the-wall bodega where you’ll be the only person speaking English, the name is not so much an upscale take at branding as a casualty of ESL.

Not feeling like Mexican food? Head to Oasis, where you’re promised the best falafel in Brooklyn for under five bucks.

If you like cheap art books and cuddly cats, then you’ve gotta make time for Spoonbill Sugartown Booksellers, where the literate go to pick up new and used reads. Want a cat-free store? Go to Book Thug Nation instead.

Clearly, the combination of old-school arcade games and a vast selection of microbrews will make any hipster man-child’s day complete. If you’re guilty as charged, go to Barcade.

What could be better than mouth-watering barbecue, including freakin’ BRISKET, served up in a cute restaurant that’s inside of a converted auto shop? Nothing, that’s what.

Whether you’re looking for a breeze or a photo-op, The East River State Park attracts a crowd that’s mostly non-IV needle toting.
