Food Network Star Opens Cobble Hill Restaurant

COBBLE HILL, BROOKLYN — Food Network star Anne Burrell just opened her new restaurant in Cobble Hill, a Mediterranean-Italian style joint opened with Phil Casaceli.

The spiky-haired television celebrity teamed up with Casaceli, who owns Daddy-O in the West Village, to create Phil & Anne’s Good Time Lounge.

Their new place, on Smith Street near Baltic Street, opened its doors Saturday.

The dishes "are the size of appetizers," Burrell told the New York Times. The menu splits dishes up into categories of "light" (a kale caesar salad, for example), "medium" ("Big Fat Chicken Soup") and "heavy" (a dry-rubbed ribeye).

The drink menu includes a couple of custom cocktails to go with draft beer and wine.

"As the name implies, this hip and funky neighborhood joint is simply about having a good time," the restaurant's website says.
