Brunch at Bubby's in Brooklyn is good. It's in the DUMBO area, and just a block from a little park along the waterfront, which is great for a stroll with the kids. A great alternative to Bubby's brunch is going to the same area on a weekday, and grabbing coffee and pastries at Amandine bakery just up the street; then enjoy it at the picnic tables in the park. For dinner, we enjoyed Stanton Social - the two memorable dishes for us were the French onion soup dumplings and the beef wellington. Have fun!
