Kris is an exceptional host. He welcomes you with complete warmth and sincerity which is so rare to find anywhere, but especially in NYC. The block is like a slice out of times when kids could play outside and the neighbors would all look out for each other. The love poured into the plants lining the sidewalks and stoops is reflective of the pride and care taken in this beautiful community. Loved cooking in the kitchen and having coffee in the garden. Hope to be back soon!
