ART: Tonight a group of artists take what one would normally put in the paper shredder, and look at it in a whole new light. The Dotted Line "presents work that assumes the form of official documents ubiquitous to everyday life. The participating artists seek to imbue these commonplace documents with new meaning and to consider the implications of those moments when we are asked to sign along a dotted line." Open through December 21st.......

Whether you're ready or not, the holidays are fast approaching. Thanksgiving is just around the corner with Christmas/Hanukkah/Kwanzaa just a hop, skip and a jump behind. For many of us that brings happy thoughts of turkey, bourbon and pie but for others, it brings anxiety about all those gifts we have to buy. Now, save the “It’s not about the gift, but rather being with the people you love” speech. Whether we like it or......

We waited. And, waited. And, waited. But was it worth the wait? Not so much. The Chip Shop on Atlantic Avenue finally opened its doors a few weeks back, expanding upon its Park Slope incarnation with a full bar and pub-like atmosphere. It's definitely a nice spot to stop for a pint. But is it any nicer than Floyd NY next door - or the Waterfront Ale House further down the block? Not so much.......

The eternal Sunday riddle: Should you have breakfast or lunch fare at brunch? It's one that Gothamist can sympathize with on a regular basis. Sometimes you just can't decide. And, that's why we were so delighted to come across a dish called Ajhi at Tripoli Restaurant, a Middle Eastern fave on Atlantic Avenue in Brooklyn specializing in Lebanese cuisine. Ajhi is a Lebanese omelet made with fresh herbs, onions, pine nuts, and ground lamb. Sounds......

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. Why should Park Slope, with its original Chip Shop, have the corner on Battered Haddock & Chips, Steak & Kidney Pie, Bangers & Mash, Fried Mars Bars and Spotted Dick? Then......

New Yorkers understand the difficulties of navigating in a small kitchen. Heck, many of us still suffer with cramped quarters, mini-fridges and hot-plates. Happily, many of us have moved on to more well-equipped kitchens. But, one luxury that Gothamist always longs for when throwing dinner parties is an honest-to-goodness dishwasher. But, in lieu of the glories of a Maytag or its brethren, we've discovered the glories of True Blues. True Blues are serious gloves for......

Imagine a place where you could choose amongst authentic Mexican, Honduran, Colombian, Guatemalan, Dominican, and Salvadoran food. A place where you and a friend wouldn't need to spend more than $10 to stuff yourselves on everything from Guatemalan tamales to Mexican huaraches, Salvadoran pupusas to Dominican plantains--all while enjoying the beautiful summertime weather. Now imagine if that place also had a huge pool right across the street where you could sun yourself for free, and......
