January 12: Restaurants from the Inside Out

Take a look at the list of restaurants - they include some of Gothamist's favorites, like Cucina, 12th Street Bar & Grill and Blue Ribbon in Park Slope, Williamburg's Planet Thailand, Fort Greene's Thomas Beisl , and Patois on Smith Street, and some ones we'd like to try, like 360 in Red Hook.
