Hey guys I really appreciate all of the Brooklyn recommendations, I think I just may take the offer on this hotel as it seems really convenient to just about everything at a good rate and in a good neighborhood. Manhattan hotels have just become so unbelievably pricey since the last time I was out there two years ago, way too ridiculous and certainly doesn't leave any room whatsoever for my very first in-store Epaulet budget. In case any nights get a little too late in Manhattan and I need to get myself and the wife back in a safe manner I am assuming a taxi drive to Williamsburg is not that far fetched either?
Along with Drams and Post Office I was also advised to hit up The Shanty, Noorman's Kill and Henry Public for drinks... Brooklyn Fare, Isa, Roberta's, Luger for good dinner... and Egg, Rabbithole, and La Barricou for brunch, not sure if any of those sit well with you locals.
Also to get back on topic... I just received my Caramel's and these things are RIDICULOUS! The color and the material are unreal but my only very slight gripe which I hope my tailor won't have a problem with is the new-ish waist line... I have always been between sizes on rivet chinos (31 and 32) and these bad boys feel like a 30. I don't want to give up the perfect fit through the legs so I am taking them to my dude tomorrow to see what magic he can pull, he's an 85 year old man so hopefully the letting out of the waist will be self explanatory enough for him. Outside of that little issue these pants are ******* flawless. You clearly outdid yourself again Mike. Cheers on a wonderful product.
