"Jeremy Salamon had a hit when he opened Agi’s Counter in Crown Heights, focused on modern Eastern European cooking, in a nod to his grandmothers. Now, he’s turning the attention back to his upbringing with a Southern-ish menu, in a much larger dining room in Red Hook that’s decorated like a country store replete with a goose-lamp and charming art throughout. There’s pimento with fried saltines, veal sweetbreads, cold meatloaf tea sandwiches, and for dessert, options like an already-popular pancake souffle. The front and back dining rooms provide two different distinct moods for experiencing Pitt’s." - Emma Orlow
