Traif (Yiddish for foods deemed unkosher) encourages eating more than just the standard cuts of meat you likely grew up on. The seasonal menu has featured pork belly, braised short ribs, chopped chicken livers, frog’s legs, and even bacon doughnuts. It’s a lively, affordable spot and especially enjoyable if you snag seats out in the garden. Traif has participated in the annual Taste Williamsburg Greenpoint event, a block party that showcases delectable northern Brooklyn restaurants like Roberta’s and Maison Premiere.
