some people get good advice from martha stewart. take, for example, martha stewart television alum abigail hitchcock.

she's put the advice to good use to open her eponymous resto, abigail. the brooklyn stop boasts espresso-colored plank floors, marble countertops and a chandelier lit dining room. vintage seating helps set the scene for abigail's seasonal menu. the chef sharpened her knives at vong in london (in addition to her MS television time), and also owns camaje bistro in greenwich village. there, she conducts wine tastings, and leads food tours of NYC 'hoods. but over at her new baby, abigail's bar will serve artisanal beverages and teas, along with a selection of homemade cordials. and this is brooklyn, after all, so expect her to host local music and poetry readings.

some advice from abigail? let go and let the good food flow.
