Why it earns the seal: Sixteen years of unchanged recipes that outlasted the developers.
The rundown
For sixteen years this beloved kitchen cooked out of a tiny triangular space near the Brooklyn Museum before condo development pushed owners Marilyn Reid and Shuon Letchford down the block to their current home. The menu never changed. Calypso shrimp, slow cooked curry goat and some of the most acclaimed jerk chicken in the borough still draw the faithful daily.
