Description

The garlicky skirt steak with kimchi rice and a fried egg wobbling on top is only one of many reasons this restaurant has so many devoted fans. The Good Fork's wood-beamed, tight space feels like the inside of a ship (with better food), which is appropriate because it's tucked away in nautical Red Hook. The chef is Korean-American; she deploys Korean flavors with finesse, and also has a way with New American plates. There's hardly a misstep in the bunch- dumplings are thin-skinned and juicy, filled with pork and chives. The seared crab cake is fat and crabby, and the burger is a beefy wonder.

  • 2012 | Best Foodie Adventures: Red Hook, Brooklyn

    The Smith and 9th streets subway station is closed, but don't let that stop you from hopping the B61 or walking over to Red Hook from nearby Carroll Gardens for a full, food-packed day. The grimy, somewhat isolated Brooklyn neighborhood has a small-town feel and some great eats all within a few blocks: Work your way down Van Brunt Street, starting with a Korean-American brunch at the Good Fork and excellent, reasonably priced cocktails at Fort Defiance. For an afternoon sweet, head to the... More »
