A Dream in Greene
Friday, June 20, 2008
I love going to Moe's in Fort Greene. It's hip but not holier-than-thou; cool, but not overly ironic. There's the 2-for-1 draft beer happy hour from 3 to 730; they're always spinning the best mix of music from old school funk to R&B and the crowd is evenly dispersed among gender and ethnic lines due to Fort Greene's ability to gentrify the graceful way. In some ways it can be considered the perfect NYC bar. The first time I came here seven years back they used to have Duff on tap and a velvet portrait of Moe the bartender from The Simpsons on the wall. That was also the time someone asked me while waiting in line for the bathroom "Do you want to go to Columbia?" to which I replied "Not really, but I've always wanted to go to Costa Rica."
