68: The trendier, more mature sister to Coco 66 next door, 68—named for its address on Greenpoint Avenue—has a similarly cool atmosphere with an added bonus: food. Unlike the blaring, drinking-friendly tunes next door, music at 68 tends towards classic jazz like the honeyed vocals of Billie Holiday. The Latin-inflected menu ranges from spicy crab soup with cilantro and lime to mushroom risotto with catalan sausage, and a steel bar set against dimly-lit exposed brick serves as the star of the bare-bones-but-warm décor. Pull up a stool between 5 and 8 p.m. for happy hour $1 oysters, and see where the aphrodisiac magic takes you. Open Sun.-Thu. 5:30pm-12am, Fri.-Sat. 5:30pm-1:30am, Sat.-Sun. 10am-4pm.
