From beastly brisket sandwiches to Bruni-sanctioned shrines to pork, Brooklyn has established itself as a dining destination worthy of a restaurant week all its own. Now in its fourth year, Dine in Brooklyn (Monday, March 19, through Friday, March 30) offers an opportunity to sample nearly 200 of the borough’s best at $21.12 (honoring Brooklyn’s zip code, ‘112’) for three courses.

- Gridskipper leads us to some of the city's best fried food including the fried mayo at WD-50 and the Chip Shop, which will fry any food you bring them.

If you want fresh, it makes sense to go straight to the source. So if you crave fish and chips, why not go to a fish shop? Wild Edibles, the premiere purveyor of fresh seafood in the city, also offers a full menu of ready-to-eat dishes at its Murray Hill location. There are plenty of fancy options from shrimp gazpacho to macadamia-crusted soft-shell crabs, but what really hits the spot is plain fried fish.

We waited. And, waited. And, waited. But was it worth the wait? Not so much.

It's not hard to spend $440 dollars on food in New York, even if you decide to do it at 44 different places. This weekend, New York Daily News wraps up 100 spots to eat for $10 or less. Their rules: "Find 100 places where you can have a meal for less than $10 without tax, tip or alcohol. No fast-food chains, no coffee shops and no slices." Fair enough. Their list includes some of our favorites, like Zaragoza for fantastic $2 tacos, Caracas for arepas, Margon for Dominican cuisine, Sapore for neigborhood Italian, and places we've highlighted here at Gothamist Food: Dumpling Man, Bereket, Hummus Place, and the Chip Shop.

No one likes a tease. And yet, after months and months of anticipation, complete with signs on the door advertising false start dates, Gothamist is still waiting with bated breath for the opening of The Chip Shop's Atlantic Avenue location in Brooklyn Heights/Cobble Hill.
