Saltie

We've talked about Saltie before, and we'll talk about it again. Caroline Fidanza's sandwiches, made along with her fellow Diner alums Elizabeth Schula and Rebecca Collerton, are just too damn good. And salty. Which makes them even better. The menu is short, but there are some great options for non meat-eaters on offer, and the décor is sparse but evokes the sea. Don't forget to stop by Momofuku Milk's bakery a couple doors down and pick up a dozen Compost cookies.

What to order: The Captain's Daughter (sardines, pickled egg, salsa verde) $10

Saltie, 378 Metropolitan Avenue (between Havemeyer Street and Marcy Avenue) Brooklyn; 718-387-4777.
