    Stopped watching after he incorrectly identified the first restaurant in the LES as “4 Clinton.” That’s the address, but the restaurant is called “The Clinton Street Baking Company.”

    A little bit sloppy, don’t you think? Those pancakes deserve better!

    Lotsa “beyond.” For obvious reasons….

    FoodFan, you are absolutely correct. Very sloppy work. Considering the salary that Homer is paying me for producing this stuff, it deserves a much closer inspection before being released.

    Wait a second, I’m not getting paid a cent. Just goes to show you that you get what you pay for.

    I’ll try a little harder next time. You are entirely correct, the bakery responsible for producing such delicious pancakes deserves to be identified properly. Thanks to you, that has been taken care of.

    Karl

    Nice and informative, but please focus on B Heights as advertised!

    Well I liked this a lot – but there was no Brooklyn Heights restaurants…so I thought that was weird – I watched the whole thing and took notes but no Heights spots :( I’ll follow him now though and keep an eye out.

    I saw a couple of Heights places in the “to come” section: Teresa’s, and at least one of the places on lower Henry Street. But herky-jerky video shots ruined the images—wish he’d invest in a camera with a steadicam function—and the shots of the skateboarders on Columbia Heights give little sense of the steep hill there, make it seem like they’re zooming along on a level street.
