Chance: Chances are you’ll fall for the intimate atmosphere of this Brooklyn find. Chance revels in the fusion of dissimilar influences—namely French and Chinese—and everything in the bar/restaurant’s sleek space reflects this aesthetic. Red Hong Kong-style lamps illuminate the bar’s bubbly steel surface, while long, modern light strips line the walls of the dining area. Complimentary wasabi peas hold you over at the bar while you sip your merlot. For dinner, try one of the dim sum boxes ($10-$12) for a light meal, or splurge on a first date in the swanky dining area—there’s a good chance you’ll get lucky. |
