- In this video I walk along Bay Ridge Brooklyn's 5th avenue, where I showcase some local restaurants during what was relatively, a pretty cold Winter day in New York. Temperatures were around 40F but it was a windy night.

Grew up here, so much has changed. See a few places I remember are still around. Thanks for the walk down memory lane.
Glad you enjoyed it
Hey, what ever happened to the dive bar on 90-something street called The Studio. It later became Banana Fish Park. I also recall two other popular bars Horsefeathers and Skinflints along 5th Ave. Nice to see Skinflints still there. Man-o-Manischewitz does this take me back to 1960's/70's Bay Ridge. Really boss.
Skinflints used to be an ice cream shop. Yes, it's still there.
Excellent video on bay ridge Brooklyn.👍
As a temporarily displaced New Yorker, this both makes me a little homesick, and gives me an hr in NY...the World's Greatest City...
Glad you appreciated it. I hope you make it back someday.
@@Antonioonthego Me too. I'm pretty much of an alien, anywhere else...it SOUNDS like you're both speaking English... but they lack that grasp of internationalism, worldliness, that makes New Yorkers the people they are. I'm really tired of dumbing everything down...just to have a chat...OF SOME KIND.
Hello from Bag Ridge. Love my neighborhood
Yeah lots of memories there myself, I lived next door in Bensonhurst for 20 years , born and raised.
Thanks for this. Grew up next door, in Sunset Park. Always enjoyed Bay Ridge, though. Bay Ridge was predominantly Scandinavian, not Italian. Seeing Skinflints was great. Voted best burger in N.Y.C. recently. Gerard Bell is the owner, one of the nicest people on the planet!
I met him about 2 years ago, indeed a very nice and friendly guy. I need to try that burger.
Loved your walking and talking to us . Love New York ❤️🙏🏼✝️
A very nice video to wind down with at the end of the day. And now I've got two more pizza reviews to rewatch.
I did review most of those pizzas shown here. Glad you are also enjoying my other content. I enjoy making these films, because I enjoy watching them on other youtube channels. I find them very relaxing.
Home sweet home
I went to the Alpine Cinema in the 60s AND 70S
Wow.... the good ol days.
Fantastic walk. Marilyn Monroe loved Brooklyn and in a 1956 interview she stated that she wanted to retire there. There is a CZcams clip on it.
Probably Carrol Gardens or Brooklyn Heights. The most beautiful residential parts of the city IMO.
I used to go get some slices at Pizza Wagon when I lived there. It's a institution!
I definitely agree that it's an institution. I may go back for a re-score.
Born n 1950 in Brooklyn. Lived and worked in Brooklyn all my life. Retired in 2011. Lived in all different parts of Brooklyn including Bay Ridge. Flagg Court Apartments. Used to go to SkinFlints every night after my shift. Those were the best days and nights in the 70’s. Didn’t need to wear a diaper on your face and refused to wear it now. They don’t work anyway and it’s been proven many times.
Skinflints is awesome, old ice cream shop. I mainly grew up in Bensonhurst, and then I moved to Staten Island at age 22. I spent a lot of time in Bay Ridge growing up too. Especially after I got my driver's licence. We'd also take the trains there and hang out in the night clubs.
Good luck with your new channel....thoroughly enjoyed the walks!!
More to come. I'm a bit under the weather right now but hope to make more of these all around the city. Glad to hear you enjoyed it.
This was very nice. I really enjoyed this. Cheers, Antonio!
Glad you enjoyed it!
I’d love to try the schintzel haus
Yeah, it has some pretty good ratings on Yelp.
That was a good walk, nice to get out and get some night air.
Yes it was! I love nighttime.
Was born and raised in Bay Ridge. Wonder why you didn't start with the Mosque next to the Alpine!
Hmm...perhaps I will next time I walk through there! I was born and raised in Bensonhurst.
My neighborhood
there are also sightseeing places along the 95th street.
OH yeah, I know them well.
@5:30 all the Hookah sign lights in that apartment window.
Pizza Wagon, yummy.
Elegante Pizza opened in About 1961. The 1979 date must be the current owner..
This is like watching paint dry.
Hello there do more videos tour for nyc and can you do live videos in nyc
I will go live when I hit 1000 subs. Please share the videos with friends!
If it weren't for me, Pizza Wagon would have closed shortly after Phil opened it.
Oh wow...
Long story@@Antonioonthego
@@joepasquarello1273I'll tell you what, if that's true, I'm damn glad you did whatever you did to keep him from closing it. I'm from there originally and everything I go back. A pie comes back with us AFTER we've had some. Love that place.
@@haydargokcebay2285 Its very true. Phil is actually the second owner.
@@joepasquarello1273 well, as was said, we'd probably like to hear the story. After my mother, that place is the only reason I go back. If that place closes, after my mother has passed, I'll have no reason to go back. And I've told them so. My son lives in LA and came upon another Pizza Wagon that is apparently connected to the one in Bay Ridge.
I Noticed There were No Chinese Restaurants OR Social ♧ Clubs✌???
Most of the Chinese restaurants are in the nearby area of Bensonhurst. There are still some Italian social clubs left there too but many in Bay Ridge.
What Happened To All The Italian Americans????
They moved to Staten Island and to New Jersey. There's still a lot left in Middle Village Queens.
When I used to live in Pennsylvania I did notice many moved to the state. Not too far of a drive to NYC so still in the region
Not a Chinese neighborhood yet ?
Bensonhurst is.
Now it's gay ridge it used to be better back then
happy to do our work :) stay mad
El barrio de Tony Manero - Fiebre de Sábado por la noche.
Si, si, the film was mostly filmed in Bay Ridge and in Bensonhurst. I am from Bensonhurst.
