Best New Restaurants in Brooklyn, July 2025: According to Eater Editors | Eater NY
"When news circulated that Ugly Baby was closing in Carroll Gardens last year, fans — including Eater — rushed for a final taste. But good news followed: the keys were passed on to former employees. They’ve since opened Hungry Thirsty, a new restaurant with an entirely distinct menu, save for a few homages to its predecessor, like the beef shank curry. While Ugly Baby was known for its extreme spice warnings on the menu, Hungry Thirsty is ever so slightly toned down. Dishes include items like a shrimp-and-mushroom curry or fried branzino with Thai tea slushies served in cartoon mugs." - Emma Orlow
