Anybody get the name of the restaurant? - required as part of the Board of Health notification for a fire in any food establishment.
 
Annette Restaurant.  Jamaican restaurant.  The jerk chicken must be very hot and extra smoked after the 2nd alarm
 
I hope its not me, but every time I take a look at a job in Brooklyn...Tower Ladder 157 is there. I must say they have to be the busiest truck in the borough, if not the whole entire city. A tremendous load of fire duty for those guys. WOW!
