Greenpoint Restaurant Watch: Dough De Damas
On April 1, 2010 I wrote (in this post):
…The Greenpoint Law of (over)Abundance: we have a falafel/kebab cart on Noble Street, Mediterranean Shawarma and God Bless Deli on Manhattan Avenue both; Kestane Kebab on Nassau Avenue and Bagels On The Run, once again on Manhattan Avenue. The latter-most is renovating and will be serving Gyro goodness.
It is only natural that Donia Cafe will be a Middle Eastern restaurant…
I mention this because today I noticed the place formerly known as the Sweetpoint Cafe at one 230 Calyer Street has become, well…

New York Shitty Day Ender: Sweetpoint
To close on a more upbeat and food related note, today I spied a new bakery moving into 230 Calyer Street.
Yes, I too cringed a little when I noticed this establishment is to be called “Sweetpoint”. But you know what? It has grown on me. Enough so that moving forward when people ask me where I live I am going to proclaim— with my little 11222 heart glowing with pride:

P.S.: On a related note the long-awaited renovation of the Taco Bell/KFC across the street appears to be nearing completion. Liquid cheese, here I come!
