A re-imagining of the same-named '60s restaurant, Fonda's trotting out modern Latin (sea scallop ceviche, whole black bass, prime rib, etc) and suds, e.g., Alhambra Negra, Otro Mundo Red, and Estrella Damm. Seating's split between the airy, windows-on-the-street downstairs cafe (open now) and the soon-to-open dining room, brightly carpeted and lorded over by immense circular chrome ceiling fixtures -- like the rings that imprisoned General Zod in the Phantom Zone of...Midtown?

Run by an intensively tatted former Mr. America, this superbly appointed training facility's offering a no-strings-attached New Year's deal: one gratis health evaluation (strength/endurance tests, nutrition eval, goal setting, etc) plus a separate, also gratis 1hr workout session. Each session's by private appointment and led by the same "lifer" trainers who whup Steve Nash into shape for the season, and David Blaine into shape for being punched by Kimbo Slice.

The trainers also teach the Israeli martial art Krav Maga. Offer's good for the first 50 people who email the gym at Info@rbprivatetraining.com

Compiled by Earfarm, this wonkishly detailed rundown of lesser known Brooklyn bands (the minimalist duo Dinosaur Feathers, the possibly Punch Out!!-inspired Glass Ghost, more) synopsizes each act, proffers free mp3s, and lists deets on their next performances -- mostly in Manhattan, so you can continue to appreciate Brooklyn without actually going there.
