Repost: The NYC Nomad in Greenpoint (on Meserole Ave and Leonard)

I somehow lost this post so I’ve recreated the first part of it and outlined the second part.  I’ll fill in the rest at a later date, but I’m falling behind and need to post about Long Beach.

Stayed

With Hillary, a former co-worker who I briefly overlapped with at Outside.in.  Hillary now runs the business side of things at Pies n’ Thighs which is a great place.  I get hungry just thinking about it.  Here’s a drawing (not by me) of Hillary and Phil, also a former coworker.

Jon is one of Hillary’s roommates.  Fun fact: Jon won an Emmy.  He also has one of the more impressive home theater systems I have ever seen.  When I stop my nomadicism, I will definitely consult him for my setup.

Putri is another one of Hillary’s roommates.  I met her boyfriend Rob and dog Max. They are great and didn’t let me leave Greenpoint without tasting Peter Pan Donuts.  Tina fey had this to say about Peter Pan:

The best doughnut? That’s Peter Pan doughnuts in Brooklyn. It’s a Polish bakery. We shot nearby once for 30 Rock. It’s a white-cream-filled powdered doughnut. And I really believe, when I first tried it, if I had a penis, I would put it in this doughnut. I finally understand what you guys are thinking about and what motivates you guys.

I had the red velvet donut, and while I can’t say I entertained those thoughts, it is an excellent donut :)
