Chimu Restaurant Peruvian Cuisine & Steak House on Latin Spring/Summer Dining Guide

Chimu Restaurant Peruvian Cuisine & Steak House on Latin Spring-Summer Dining Guide


Chimu Restaurant Peruvian Cuisine & Steak House

482 Union Avenue (Williamsburg–Meeker/Union Av)
Brooklyn, NY 11211


Don’t judge this place by its strip mall-esque exterior—this Peruvian restaurant and steakhouse, right under the Brooklyn-Queens Expressway in Williamsburg, is one of the best spots in the trendy ’hood. Owned by Peruvians, it is dimly lit (with a garden out back) and usually packed with longtime locals. Try the shell steak, the fried rice with strips of chicken or beef and a side of yucca. And don’t forget to order extra green sauce—guaranteed you’ll be craving it in the middle of the night.

Pacificana is 10 of NYC's Best Chinese Restaurants

 Pacificana is 10 of NYC's Best Chinese Restaurants 


Pacificana 
813 55th St., 718-871-2880, Sunset Park, Brooklyn

The crown jewel of Sunset Park's Chinatown is Pacificana, a vast sea of round tables filled with well-heeled Chinese families. Dim sum brunch here is an epic experience, presenting an overwhelming array of dumplings, spring rolls, sweet shrimp wrapped in slippery rice noodles, sautéed vegetables and seafood. When the ladies park their carts by your table, point and nod to signal what you want, unless you speak Chinese.

Be assured that it's all good and clean, freshly prepared in an open kitchen that looks like a theatrical production in and of itself. Dim sum is available seven days a week for breakfast and lunch. Dinner is also a well-oiled machine, with choreographed service and lazy Susans in the middle of each table laden with Cantonese-style pork, beef, chicken, duck, squab and vegetarian preparations. It's a destination that's worth the effort it takes to get there, and certainly less onerous than a trip to Guangzhou.

New York City Steak Hauses - Peter Luger Steak House

New York City Steak Hauses - Peter Luger Steak House



Peter Luger Steak House
178 Broadway, 718-387-7400, Williamsburg, Brooklyn
It's all about the porterhouse for two (or three or four) here. The dry-aged, well-marbled steak is chapter-and-verse impeccable and the reason Peter Luger has been legendary since 1887. Of course, the steak house does other things well, too. Start with sizzling, thick-cut bacon and order sides of creamed spinach and excellent french-fried potatoes. If you haven't been here before, its well-lit German-tavern atmosphere may come as a surprise. Not surprising is brusque service (until the employees get to know you, that is). Local politicians and generations of families have long been welcomed into the fold. At lunch, the superb, half-pound burger is a budget-conscious $8.95
