We were updating our family blog with some older photos from our previous travels when we found this picture

The problem was – we didn’t remember neither the name of this place nor the date (only that it was somewhere in Brooklyn sometime in 2006). So our quest began.

Looking “out of the window” we can gather that the name of the store across the street is “Heart to Heart”.  A quick google search reveals the address of the place:

9006 3rd Ave
Brooklyn, NY 11209

Enter Google street view:

Great! We found the place outside. Now let’s just turn 180 and:

Bingo! We were at “Circles Grille”. And the date was even easier since we store all our photos at www.fotki.com, and the service keeps EXIF information of every picture stored, it was easy to extract that the picture was taken on February 18th, 2006 at 3:38:57pm. With presision to a second!
