Getting Kids into the Colonial Spirit in Williamsburg
Blog: Ciao Bambino! - 13 September 2011
Williamsburg, Virginia is a cultural gem, a place of living history, a lovely colonial smorgasbord. As such, it rightly bills itself as a place to step back in time. That’s a great idea of course, and the costumed interpreters there do a wonderful job of engaging their visitors and explaining the significance of the place. But what if you child isn’t inherently interested in colonial American history? Never fear – there are lots of ways you can make sure that a trip to Colonial Williamsburg is fun for everyone in the family, history buffs or not.

The Giglio Festival Comes to Williamsburg
Blog: Broke-Ass Stuart's Goddamn Website - 7 July 2011
Williamsburg in the summer seems to be an endless blend of celebrations. Whether it’s some sort of feast, carnival or literal mass taking place on the streets, the neighborhood gets bedecked in tinsel finery all season long.

Northside Market Opens Today! Brooklynites and AC Lovers Rejoice!
Blog: Broke-Ass Stuart's Goddamn Website - 25 June 2011
So apparently markets are the new $2 PBR of Brooklyn, and I am 100% okay with that. Taking cues from the success of predecessors like Brooklyn Flea and most recently, Smorgasburg, Northside Market knows what the borough likes and is opening a summer-only indoor market in Williamsburg starting today, Saturday June 25th.

FREE BOWLING AND SHOES! FREE BOWLING AND SHOES! FREE BOWLING AND SHOES! Phew. Sorry. Just a little excited that bowling has finally returned to the cheap-ass entertainment activity I grew up loving it to be thanks to the fine folks at Brooklyn Bowl.

Roebling Tea Room, Actually a Tea Room
Blog: Broke-Ass Stuart's Goddamn Website - 8 June 2011
As I grow older and appreciate things like concert venues with seats and using a cold as an excuse to stay in on a Friday night, I find myself craving drinks beyond those that will get me black out drunk. Just kidding!

Broke and Bored Activities: Reading NYC Signs
Blog: Broke-Ass Stuart's Goddamn Website - 7 June 2011
If you’re anything like my roommate and I, you derive pleasure from nonsensically mocking olds reading signs and/or just the existence of the particularly hilarious signs and graffitti tags abound in NYC. That’s right– reading signs. It sounds way too simple to make any sense.

Beaner Bar: Not Your Average Cup of Joe
Blog: Broke-Ass Stuart's Goddamn Website - 27 May 2011
We rarely talk about coffee shops on this site. Well except for here and here, because really, if you’re broke and enjoy coffee, you can usually just make it yourself or buy the cheap stuff from your local deli.

Smorgasburg: A Food Flea in Williamsburg
Blog: Broke-Ass Stuart's Goddamn Website - 21 May 2011
As the name might suggest, Brooklyn Flea’s newest food venture Smorgasburg is both a “giant buffet” of food vendors, and taking place in Williamsburg. Riding the food-truck, artisanal food-crazy bandwagon, this sprawling outdoor market promises to be the one stop shop for all of New York’s foodies every Saturday this Spring and Summer.

Le Comptoir: Bottomless Mimosas Within Stumbling Distance
Blog: Broke-Ass Stuart's Goddamn Website - 27 April 2011
The other weekend I attended the most drunken brunch I’ve possibly ever been to– or if not the drunkest, the most booze consumed at one brunch. There is one place responsible for this. Namely, Le Comptoir in Williamsburg, which is luckily within stumbling distance from pretty much anywhere in that neighborhood.

Happy Record Store Day
Blog: Broke-Ass Stuart's Goddamn Website - 16 April 2011
Today is the day where thousands of bespectacled music nerds (myself included) celebrate all things vinyl for National Record Store Day. More then just a music industry sales ploy, hundreds of artists have new special releases and re-releases just for the occasion.

Bask In the Past At Legion
Blog: Broke-Ass Stuart's Goddamn Website - 11 April 2011
If it ain’t broke, don’t fix it. It’s what mama always said, along with “hold doors open” and “always carry an extra sidearm.” Unfortunately, as we all strive for reinvention in this ever-swirling snafu known as life, sometimes we get a change we don’t need for the simple sake of changing.

Graham Ave. Meats and Deli: Best Sandwich Ever

There are few things easier to justify as the weather gets warmer than cozying up with a beer the size of your head and taking a little snoozer in the park. If you live in the Williamsburg area, you know what’s coming next.

Stuff Yourself With Italy at La Nonna
Blog: Broke-Ass Stuart's Goddamn Website - 4 March 2011
If you’re looking for a slightly nicer Italian restaurant, but not so nice you’ll get stabbed with a fork for using the wrong one, go to La Nonna. Their classic Italian dishes are the cheesiest, freshest and most tomato-ey you could hope to stuff your face with. Even a simple dish like homemade gnocci with buffalo mozzarella and [...] Related posts:B.A.D.

Mabel’s Smokehouse: Cheap BBQ for the North Side

NYC Apartment Staples
Blog: Broke-Ass Stuart's Goddamn Website - 15 February 2011
Not being a native New Yorker, or even East Coast-er, I’ve come to notice the things that don’t resemble strip malls and shirtless guys listening to Sublime/Red Hot Chili Peppers/the worst radio hits of 1995. Especially, though, when apartments are concerned, there are some especially funny and idiosyncratic things about New York apartments that still [...] Related posts:Shellfishin’
