It’s time to check in with other local blogs and news sites to see what else is going on locally:

• One Greene Sushi not compensating its workers [The Local] (I have never liked their sushi, personally)
• $1 million price cut at 380 Clinton Ave [Brownstoner] (Imagine being able to make a million dollar price cut and still make a profit.)
• Brooklyn’s most eligible bachelor lives in Clinton Hill! [Courier Life] (I snagged Bed-Stuy’s most eligible bachelor – IMHO- in September- sorry, ladies!)
• Clinton Hill Duo competing in Olympic blogging [NBC]
• Three luxury cars stolen from DMK Garage on Waverly [The Local] (Damn, I used to park there!  And you think your car is safer being parked inside.  Though thankfully, my inherited 10-year-old car with manual crank windows and a cassette player is far from luxury)
• Clermont Greene cutting prices [Curbed] (I looked at some of these units with a friend a few months ago – some were very nice some were “meh.”  Nice building, though.)
• Time Out NY’s Reasons to Love Fulton Street [TONY]
• Choice Dumbo opens [Brownstoner] (look at all that seating!  JEALOUS.)

Brownstoner alerted us to a brand new cafe at 395 Classon, that seems to occasionally be hiding behind papered windows.

One of my favorite photobloggers, Brandon King, has been inside and took some awesome shots:

See them all on his blog, word BK.
