The Farm on Adderley

Some restaurants are instantly embraced by their famished neighborhoods, and so it was when this casually rustic spot opened in 2006 in Ditmas Park, a corner of Brooklyn where the Victorian fixer-uppers attract the sort of Manhattan expats who aren’t surprised one bit to find whey jam on the cheese plate and egg noodles with roasted squash and pecorino on the kids’ menu. And so they do at the Farm, where seasonal ingredients are duly worshipped in preparations like rainbow trout with glazed turnips and pickled radicchio. There’s also a serene little garden, a nice long bar where the “local and organic” motto extends to some of the beer and wine, and a respectable English-muffin burger that’s overshadowed by its world-class fries.
