So how did I get there? One day on my way from work I was feeling a bit down and under the weather and stumbled upon this GEM. So I decided to stop by and after exchanging a few pleasantries. I was given a sample ginger shot, and a mini tasting event to water my palette. Oh! Am sorry did I mention that I was a foodie? Any WHO! So the host recommended the Freedom 🍲soup.

There's paid parking and street parking depending on the day of the week that you choose to visit. By public transportation take the G train to Greenpoint Ave, get off the Manhattan Ave side it's just a 3 block radius. By bus you may take the B24 and get off at GREENPOINT/MCGUINESS BLVD 🛑. It's a 2...
Read moreThe most delicious food. Would recommend to anyone and everyone. Perfectly comforting momos and the SAUCE was everything. You’ll know what I mean when you try it. A gem of a restaurant and also a gem of a human running it! She offered me many taste samples. No doubt all the food on the menu (that I will be back to try) is as delicious and thoughtfully homemade. Homemade chocolate for the hot chocolate! Ginger tea with ginger from her mom’s farm! Couldn’t...
Read moreIt was my first time having Haitian food and I'm very glad I got it from Le Chalet du Terroir! I didn't know what to expect but was pleasantly surprised by how tasty and filling their Diri Djon djon was. The lady at the restaurant was also so sweet and vibrant, she even made sure my food wasn't spicy (because I'm unfortunately spice sensitive) and just overall made the atmosphere of the place very warm and welcoming. I was very satisfied and would definitely...
