Spike Hill Announces Their Upcoming Calendar
By: Gabrielle Sierra May. 17, 2010
At this cozy new tavern with dark wood and good beer in Williamsburg, Brooklyn, the meal practically sells itself. If you explain that there's something British about the food, you've dug your own hole. The truth is that there is and there isn't. Fish and chips - especially when you call it fish and chips - is as emblematically British as it gets. And Spike Hill's version is perfectly executed. But the reading line "panko-crusted black sea bass with cumin coleslaw" and the condiments are much more new American than Old World. The Irish fry-up is a mountain of blood sausage, rashers and some Irish relative of the hot dog snowcapped with two fried eggs. The burger is the only serious misfire on the nine-item dinner. Luckily the steak is fatty and well seasoned, and a disarmingly good deal. Spike Hill is part of a heartening trend of restaurants in Williamsburg moving away from overstylized, underachieving fusion cuisine toward solid, well-priced food.- Ny Times
