NoNo is ok, but it is far from authentic. The bread for the po boys is some sort of italian bread and lacks the characteristic crusty outside of a real po boy sandwich. The gumbos were also less than deeelish.

I'm a Brooklynite and for one appreciate the coverage it's been getting. The food out here is good and without as much pretension (and as much price as Manhattan). I'm with Steve above. You negative Gothamist commenters really must have boring jobs and boring lives to have to pick on writers who are literally writing for your entertainment and probably don't get paid much to do so. NoNo kitchen is pretty good by the way, the crab cake is deeelish.

there's a google map mashup of the restaurant list at brooklyn.com. Interesting to see the neighborhoods with zero participation. How does a restaurant become part of restaurant week, anyway? by invitation? do they have to pay in?

jeez Ben, she was just referring to the distance on the subway. Regardless of your semantic argument about what the "city" is, you still have to take a ride across the river to get there. In addition, Manhattanites have to deal with the irony of reverse snobbery by persons such as yourself

It's Fort Greene, with an e at the end.

...it’s convenient enough for the most stubborn of city-folk. You know, Brooklyn is in New York City. Maybe you mean its convenient enough for the most narrow-minded Manhattan residents?
