Cool Bar With a Cheesy Pedigree in Carroll Gardens; Terroir Set to Open

Astoria: Ovelia’s another stellar, cheap brunch option with a mix of Greek and American cooking: “Think French toast stuffed with Greek yogurt and honey or pancakes paired with homemade sausage — made from a family recipe.” [Foodista]
Brooklyn: Domino’s has started a marketing campaign that “offers speech lessons to Brooklynites who want to rid themselves of ‘annoying, fake’ accents” meant to appeal to “male college students across the country,” and the borough is pissed. [NYDN]
Carroll Gardens: The owners of Smith & Vine and Stinky Brooklyn are opening a bar-cum-café called the Jake Walk at 282 Smith Street this Friday. [NYS]
East Village: Terroir opens tonight. [NYT]
West Village: Mama’s Mudsliders’ beignets filled with chocolate cream “are light, ungreasy, deep-fried dough balls of delight.” [Bottomless Dish/Citysearch]
