Gowanus is best known for the canal that flows through its heart, which happens to be one of the most polluted waterways in the world. The neighborhood around it, however, is one of the most vital and up-and-coming neighborhoods in Brooklyn: a magnet for artists, delicious food, and creative businesses.
Comfort Noodles
With pressed tin ceilings, exposed brick walls and a bearded clientele, this by-the-slice place screams Brooklyn. Our favorite pie is the fig, speck and arugula with housemade mozzarella, but a lot of folks swear by the classic Margherita. Whatever the toppings, the crust is always thin, balanced perfectly between crisp and chewy, with a wonderful smokiness from the big old-school coal-fired ovens.
