Around Brooklyn: ‘Parm to go’ featured at old-time Italian restaurant
‘Parm to go’ featured at old-time Italian restaurant
An old-school southern Italian restaurant in Midwood, Michael’s of Brooklyn, has now launched a “parm-to-go” counter. Cheesy chicken, eggplant, meatball and veal sandwiches are offered. Delivery is a new thing for the 58-year-old establishment, but owner Michael Cacace has offered it since the state-mandated closure of restaurants for dine-in service on March 16. Michael’s of Brooklyn is located at 2929 Avenue R and Nostrand Avenue, according to New York Eater.
Drive-in movie theater coming to Greenpoint
Movie theaters may be closed because of the coronavirus epidemic, but the same factor has given rise to a rebirth of an old idea — the drive-in movie theater. Skyline Drive-in, will open in Greenpoint next to the Brooklyn Expo Center at 1 Oak Street near the East River. The drive-in will show movies on Friday and Saturday and will also function as a filming location, according to Brooklyn Vegan.
