"If I were renting a houseboat on Jamaica Bay, I’d ride my bike at breakfast to Brothers on the boardwalk at Beach 106th Street for a scrambled egg tucked with pesto, Cheddar, and radish microgreens into an English muffin and a frothy Get Up and Catch It smoothie made with peach, coconut water, lavender, and banana ($3-$12); the spot feels purposeful and mindful, with the words “Be patient / with us / with each other / with yourselves” scrawled on Plexiglas and “BLACK TRANS LIVES MATTER” written on the wooden counter below." - Hannah Goldfield
