BX IN THE HOUSE! SOBRO-BRUCKNER BAR & GRILL

First of all people-I gotta apologize for the quality of my recent pictures-I promise to get my camera fixed soon! I'm using my Razor for now-which gives me yucky pics-but hey at least u get a glimpse of what I see! Enough of that-off to the BX!

How many times can you say that you have been to the Bronx for dinner! (OK not if you live there)... Well now I can say at least once! So when my friend Hetu who claims to know the quaintest atypical spots in NY (ahem..u have competition!) mentioned the Bruckner Bar & Grill in the Bronx, I was intrigued-BX huh? I've never really been to the Bronx (asides from the Bronx Zoo) LOL I know lame!

Anyway tucked away under the 3rd Ave. bridge off Bruckner Blvd., this restaurant is a real find! So I've learnt from BX locals that SOBRO (South Bronx) is totally up and coming and Bruckner Bar & Grill is one of the more popular spots for the locals to hang out!
They were really busy last night; they had a live comedian performing...which you wouldn't even know off unless you went through the pool room-another room and then voila a back room with a stage and everything!! I love it! Totally SOBRO(lol I just like saying that!)...anyway the food looked really good but we didn't stay to eat, (check out the next posting and find out where we did end up eating!!) our waitress was a little pre-occupied. We grabbed a couple beers, and just enjoyed the warm brick walls, & the neighborhood vibe...Truly a diamond in the ruff!

OK how to get here-I'm going to be honest, its not easy. Thanks to Hetu, I had a ride back to BK, (Haaayyy)..LOL You have to take the 6 to 138th &3rd and then walk down to 134th and 3rd, and Bruckner is right on the corner. Now, If you walk the wrong way-like I did-you will end up in the projects-which is not cool-so TRUST-just go with someone or hook up a ride! Definitely worth a trip though-its so "hipster" but NOT u know what I mean peeps!

Hetu-thanks for a FAB time and the ride home... & No we are not stopping by Hunts Point the next time we go bad boy!!!(LOL) Wait-read my next posting about stop 2 in the BX!! To be continued.....
