May 6, 2026Bay Ridge Mother Honored With a Memoir/Cookbook – Gus Constantellis
Julia Constantellis, a Bay Ridge resident became popular on her son’s TikTok videos. In August 2023, she died unexpectedly in Greece.
Julia’s recipes will live on and be enjoyed by many people because her son, Gus wrote a memoir/cookbook called My Greek Mom’s Recipes in her memory.
Such a beautiful way to honor his mother’s memory. I was hoping Gus was going to have a book signing in Bay Ridge, but it’s not on his list.

The winner of the best Sicilian slice in Bay Ridge was Mancini’s Wood Fired Pizza at 8504 – 5th Avenue in Bay Ridge!
See Mancini’s entry into Pizza Wars – this pizza is interesting:
It had vodka sauce, hot honey, a cheese called stracciatella and Calabrian chili peppers. That’s a lot of different flavors!
Congratulations to Frank from Mancini’s – he received the golden pizza wheel cutter!
2nd Place: Elegante Pizzeria at 6922 – 5th Avenue. Congratulations Tony!

May 3, 2026Were Shots Fired in Bay Ridge Tonight?
Around 8:50 pm tonight, a person called 911 and reported that two gunshots were fired from a speeding car on Fort Hamilton Parkway and 86th Street in Bay Ridge.
Hopefully, the sound came from a modified car exhaust and not someone actually shooting a gun. Let’s see if the NYPD or politicians clear this up.

May 3, 2026The Kindness of Bay Ridge Neighbors
I love writing about kind neighbors in our community!
a) One Bay Ridge resident added a Trinket Trade Box next to the Little Library at Shore Road. This Ridgite wanted to bring some fun to Bay Ridge!
What’s in the box. You can follow them on Instagram at BayRidgetrinkets. They shared this photo: https://www.instagram.com/bayridgetrinkets

b) A young Ridgite is making cute beaded frogs and leaving them around Bay Ridge to find. Why? She just wants to make people happy!
Such kindness! May God bless these nice people, who care about making others happy!
