Hey lovelies! Hope your weekend is starting off well. I've been getting over laryngitis that really hit me hard last week. I could barely squeak out even a few words. But I'm happy to say that my voice is fully recovered now and I'm back on my game.
Today I wanted to share some photos from my trip to Prospect Heights a few weeks ago. It was my second time in Brooklyn, which I absolutely fell in love with a few months ago when I went to Williamsburg. There are so many cute little corners of Brooklyn that each have their own unique charm and flair. In fact, not gonna lie, I think it's slowly becoming my favorite NYC borough.
So I decided to get up early in the morning and venture out to Brooklyn about two Saturdays ago. Unfortunately all of my friends were busy or working that day, so I decided to just go on my own. I had to do some reading for my residency program, so I figured my first stop should be a coffee shop. Brooklyn is known for being hipster, so of course coffee shops are everywhere. After searching Yelp, I decided to try a shop called "Sit and Wonder" out in Prospect Heights. It seemed to have the best blend of hipster, urban, and looked like a spacious study spot with a cool scenery and free WiFi. I got a caffe latte and oh my goodness, it is the best latte I have ever had in my life. It helped that the cup it was poured in was extra cute. Strong, but not bitter, with just the right amount of milk. Oh and the croissant was delicious and buttery.
Prospect Heights is of course home to Prospect Park, which hosts a farmer's market each Saturday. Sadly I forgot to take pictures of the market :( but the park itself was quite beautiful and serene. The Farmers Market was quite large with a mix of cute little stands. Next to the park is the Brooklyn Public Library. It's a really beautiful, spacious library with (get this) free WiFi even for non-card holders! It's really well kept and I wish I lived closer so I could come here and study in my spare time...does that sound nerdy?!
After roaming around Prospect Heights, Prospect Park, and the Brooklyn Public Library I was exhausted and famished! I decided to try Kimchi Grill, a unique blend of Mexican and Korean. I got a chicken burrito and it was pretty good! I think they went a little overboard on the kimchee, but it went really well with the fajita flavoring of the burrito. It was a pretty huge burrito for only about $10. Definitely hit the spot and a great ending to my day in Brooklyn! Cannot wait for my next adventure there.
