Tonight is the Franklin St Raffle going on at The Diamond. Some of the best local shops participating just in time for Christmas gifting (though you’ll probably want to keep it all for yourself!).
A wicked awesome raffle going on with lots and lots of Franklin Street businesses participating. DJ services will be provided by Cowboy Mark and Mix Tape Mary of Kill Devil Hill. Get a free raffle ticket with every beverage purchased and win stuff from Alter, Dalaga, Dandelion Wine, Jan & Aya, Permanent Records, and more. Midnight drawing at midnight, late night drawing at 2:30am.
I received a comment from a reader this week on one of my posts from back in October on that new restaurant at the corner of Kent & Franklin.
The nice Korean man is the owner. The restaurant will be called “The River Barrel”. My husband, also a Greenpointer, is the new chef working hard at the New American menu that will hopefully be debuting in the next 2 weeks! Full Bar and late night menu to boot!
Very exciting stuff to hear that a local chef will be taking the reins on this new joint. I’m thrilled to see what’s in store. The work being done on the place seems top notch, the people nice and it will be great having another dining option in the neighborhood. Especially in the winter when one isn’t in the mood to troop over to BBurg but still needs to get out of the house.
The name thing is confusing since I was under the impression it was called River Barrel but their newly added signage indicates River Ballel. I guess we’ll find out soon enough! Thanks J.

I found a vintage vid of the tank implosion from YouTuber rutkowskir. It’s new one to me, I’ve never seen this angle. The implosion happens at around 1:50.

I am catching up on emails from some readers and this one has been in my inbox for a pretty long time. I wanted to have the time to actually view it – and it was worth the wait. Hysterical!
Hi Justine!
I’m a big fan of Greenpointers. I’m writing because I thought you guys might be interested in my sketch comedy group Rhoda’s new video, “Single & Cooking!”, a harrowing look at a Food Network production gone horribly awry, which takes place in a Greenpoint apartment. I hope you enjoy it! Thanks so much and have a great day!
Best, Leila Cohan
