Brooklyn Farmacy & Soda Fountain
Brooklyn Farmacy & Soda Fountain, a lavishly, lovingly refurbished apothecary in sleepy Carroll Gardens, wants to evoke the happy parts of the 1950s, when "jerk" was a compliment, poodles were skirts, and Elvis ruled. It specializes in floats, malteds, egg creams, sundaes, milkshakes and sodas made from seasonal ingredients, and other sweet, old-timey comfort food. What makes the place modern are the prices --- and the waitstaff's piercings and tattoos peaking out from short shorts and t-shirts.

I used to be a 'jerk' at a now defunct ice-cream parlor on the UES a long time ago. I still remember that vintage milkshake machine. The milkshake creation process was fun at first, but got exhaustive after the first week of work. That was my second job.
Wow, we just hope it didn't ruin you for shakes. Thanks for reading!
