Checking in on Red Hook; Tiki Mondays at GoldBar

RED HOOK ? Curbed's Camera Obscura series visits Red Hook to check on the post-Sandy recovery there. Here's Steve's Key Lime Pie owner Steve Tarpin on the unscathed Brooklyn Crab: "Maybe the crab shack is the future. What if any new construction has to be elevated?" [Curbed NY]

WEST VILLAGE ? This Saturday, Betel?owned by a handful of Australians?will have a special all-you-can-eat-and-drink Australia Day brunch available from 11 a.m. to 2 p.m. It costs $40 a person. [EaterWire]

BOOK CLUB ? Eater National takes a first look at London chef José Pizarro's Spanish Flavors. Though Spanish cooking can be difficult to reproduce in the US because so much is based on specific ingredients, and some of the ingredients in the book's recipes can be hard to find, it still serves as a solid crash course in Spanish cuisine. [Eater National]

LITTLE ITALY ? Cocktail maestro Brian Miller is bringing his Tiki Monday parties (formerly of Lani Kai) to the revamped GoldBar. The first one is this coming Monday, with Miller and Death & Co.'s Brad Farran making the tropical drinks. Chef Ulrich Sterling is also doing a Polynesian pig roast, which he'll do every other Monday. [EaterWire]
