The Q at Parkside

(for those for whom the Parkside Q is their hometrain)

News and Nonsense from the Brooklyn neighborhood of Lefferts and environs, or more specifically a neighborhood once known as Melrose Park. Sometimes called Lefferts Gardens. Or Prospect-Lefferts Gardens. Or PLG. Or North Flatbush. Or Caledonia (west of Ocean). Or West Pigtown. Across From Park Slope. Under Crown Heights. Near Drummer's Grove. The Side of the Park With the McDonalds. Jackie Robinson Town. Home of Lefferts Manor. West Wingate. Near Kings County Hospital. Or if you're coming from the airport in taxi, maybe just Flatbush is best.

Extraordinary Food on Rogers

Dang. Me and Rudy just came back from a truly mind-blowing dinner at The Food Sermon. It's at 355 Rogers, one block above Empire. I know, I know, Caribbean food in Crofferts, big whoop. But Rawlston Williams and his chef make incredible dishes, like the Island Bowl where you pick your protein and sauce and rice and a beautiful, fresh and tasty salad. Drink the sorrel - it's the perfect blend of sweet and tang. I don't write about food, and you have no reason to trust my Neanderthal palate. Just do yourself a favor and go. It's small, you'll sit along the window. But trust me word is out and only gonna get outer.

It is! Note that they are closed Friday after sunset and Saturday. Amazing food, huge portions, and love the sorrel!

So it's safe to say the Sermon that this Food is serving up would be of the 7th Day Adventist variety?

Yes, they are SDA. But they don't force their beliefs on anyone (nor do any of my SDA or Jewish neighbors).

I visit at least once a week and tell everyone who will listen about it. It's more than a neighborhood spot. I think I'd make the trek if I lived in Queens.
