Opened Sycamore Flower Shop & Bar, located in the leafy,
quiet corner of Ditmas Park. Sycamore creates hand-tied bouquets and artisanal
pottery during the day, and pours small-batch bourbons, microbrews, and barley
wine at night. It also hosts live performances by local musicians. “We liked
the idea of combining two businesses in one place, like Marlow and Sons in
Williamsburg where there’s a little grocery shop up front and a dining space in
the back… This is the perfect place for a boyfriend. If he’s not in a fight, he
can come in for flowers. If he’s in a fight, he can come, talk to the
bartender, realize he’s wrong and then get flowers.”
