Happy St. Patrick's Day!

Happy St. Patrick's Day! We won't list all of the Irish spots to which you might repair today in order to tie one one after trudging through the accumulated sleet, but if you click over to About Brooklyn, you'll find a nice list of places to go, like Farrell's on Prospect Park West and the Salty Dog on Third Avenue in Bay Ridge. When all is said and done, you will find enough Irish spots for a decade's worth of St. Patrick's Days in King's County. On a parade note, the annual Brooklyn St. Patrick's Parade hits the streets of Park Slope on Sunday (3/18), starting at 1 o'clock. The parade route runs from Prospect Park West and 15th Street, down 15th to Seventh Avenue. It runs along Seventh Avenue to Union Street, then turn up Union Street to Prospect Park West. It continues down Prospect Park back to 15th Street, at which point, Farrell's get very, very, very crowded.
