If I could be reborn as a restaurant, I’d want to come back as Roberta’s. Through a nondescript yellow curtain on a nondescript street in the heart of Brooklyn’s Bushwick neighborhood, you discover the wonder that is Roberta’s: A fire engine red oven bakes pizza until toasty in just the right way. Prince plays loudly through booming speakers resting on the wooden walls.
Outside, a courtyard butts up against green shipping containers that contain Heritage Radio Network, where I just did an interview with The Art of Eating In’s Cathy Erway. On the roof of the shipping crates, seedlings are bursting through soil and will eventually end up on the diner’s plates.
