My man, Moni, took me to this spot called Rime in Boerum Hill. The brunch experience at the Carroll Gardens’ Lobo wasn’t great. Heed this advice, if you like tex mex food and know about Lobo, go to the one off 5th Ave in Park Slope instead.
Anyway, back on topic. Rime is a fairly new streetwear boutique that opened early December 2007. The modular furnishing and white epoxy floors is a delight for those that appreciate minimalist design. Immediately when you walk in, you’ll see a selection of footwear by Creative Recreation, Alife, Reebok and even Doc Martens. Aside from sneakers, they also carry a small selection of Kidrobot toys, denim, shirts and hoodies. I think I may have even seen Skullcandy headphones and high end eye wear. The owner, Susan Boyle, also gave a heads up that Rime will be carrying Nike shortly. It looks like I won’t ever need to hit up Manhattan for my quickstrike sneaker shopping. Now if Susan takes special requests, I’d like to see Rime with a G-Star Raw account.
