one breath rising

Before

0.1 mi · 2 min walk - Prospect Heights

A ramen shop on Vanderbilt Avenue opened by cooks who came out of Morimoto's kitchen, doing four or five broths and a plate of kale salad that people order out of habit. No bookings. You give your name and stand outside or at the counter until a stool opens.

After

Long walk · 0.8 mi · 16 min walk; 2 min ride - Boerum Hill

Twenty-seven taps and a long bottle list on Fourth Avenue a few doors from Bergen Street, with a walled back yard of picnic tables that is open in the warm months. Bowls of popcorn sit on the bar. There is no kitchen, and it runs to 4am most nights. It is the closest late bar to Roulette by a wide margin.
