Miss Ada

A lovely backyard garden adds to the charm of Miss Ada, a welcoming Mediterranean restaurant in Fort Greene. Tomer Blechman, the Israeli-born chef-owner, learned to cook from his grandmother and stints at Gramercy Tavern, Maialino and Lupa. His hummus with warm chickpeas, chicken liver and caramelized onion; whipped ricotta with brown butter and honey; and za’atar-crusted salmon are out of this world.
