Let's talk meatballs. The Meatball Shop is a New York treasure that serves up the tastiest balls in the city. Even though you can eat at three different Meatball Shops around Manhattan, the owner/couple call Brooklyn their home in this comfortable and bright apartment. Michael Chernow and Donna Hemmingsen may be one of the most attractive couples ever, but their apartment is just as attractive... along with their dog who is also cute-to-boot. The couple's apartment has classically bright and white walls that are filled with precious trinkets from years of collecting flea-market steals, all with dark wooden floors that bring the airiness down to a grounded feel. Michael and Donna are serious collectors of all things old and that probably no one else has; they spend their weekends at their home upstate, finding the best vintage items to scatter around their urban dwelling. The interior of this home is beautiful, but it is certainly complimented by the gorgeous city views seen from the rooftop that is big enough for entertaining... a lot of people! But as big as the roof is, the couple prefer to keep it intimate with only a few people at a time. I can't tell if I'm salivating over this apartment, or for a meatball sandwich.
