There's a new restaurant in Tokyo called Fort Greene, and yes, it is actually named after the neighborhood in Brooklyn. The chef, Makoto Asamoto, lived in the real Fort Greene for a year and says he wanted his restaurant to have the "same mood." Among other things, that means a single communal table, a collection of antique typewriters, and shelves full of artisanal pantry items. [BA]
