Lomzynianka Restaurant
646 Manhattan Avenue, Greenpoint
This is place is made to make you feel like you are in your grandmother’s dining room. Lace curtains and table cloths. And the borscht is suitably comforting. Tastes as it should: sweet and delicious with yummy dumplings. Despite the fact that sometimes the dishware is not spotless, I go back often.

Neil Young album: “Everybody Knows This Is Nowhere” (1969)
It’s almost perfect. It’s loved by all who know it and it’s warm and comforting. The title track is about nostalgia for where you’re from.
