Achilles Heel

"Not unlike a Frank Ocean song, this Greenpoint spot is sexy in a comfortable, journal-before-bed sort of way. There’s a wood-burning stove and a tiny kitchen in plain sight, plus great cocktails and food that has no business being this good (considering the place is technically a bar). You’ll find a rotating menu of vegetable-focused snacks and usually some oysters, too. The portions aren’t huge, and things can get pricey, so we’d recommend starting with a couple dishes and seeing how you feel after that." - hannah albertine
