Fmr. Brooklyn Beep at Queens’ Service

By QNS Editorial Posted on August 28, 2014

Queens Borough President Melinda Katz was former Brooklyn Borough President Marty Markowitz’s first guest of the evening on Friday, Aug. 22, as he made a guest maître d’ appearance at Rego Park’s London Lennie’s. At the 55-year-old seafood restaurant, Markowitz greeted and seated diners-including City Council Member Karen Koslowitz-and brought attention to the neighborhood’s nearby attractions to encourage visitors to explore the area. Markowitz’s appearance is part of NYC & Company’s efforts to encourage tourism to Brooklyn, the Bronx, Queens and Staten Island. This was the second of four planned maître d’ appearances.
