Chris Perfetti, known for his role as Jacob Hill in the hit ABC comedy 'Abbott Elementary,' embraces his Sundays in Brooklyn with a mix of relaxation, culture, and community engagement.

The 34 - year - old actor starts his day around 8 AM with a ritual that grounds him in his Greenpoint neighborhood. 'I'm a creature of habit, ' Perfetti says, describing his morning walk to Variety Coffee Roasters, where he enjoys his first cup while catching up on reading.

Despite his rising fame from 'Abbott Elementary,' Perfetti maintains a low - key presence in his community.Sunday afternoons often find him at local theaters, supporting independent productions and staying connected to his theatrical roots. 'Theater is where I started, and it's still where I feel most at home, ' he explains.

Food plays a central role in Perfetti's Sunday routine. He frequents the McGolrick Park Farmers Market, selecting fresh ingredients for home-cooked meals. 'Cooking helps me decompress and prepare for the week ahead, ' he shares. His go-to Sunday dinner often includes fresh pasta from a local Italian deli.

The evening typically winds down with what Perfetti calls his 'mental prep' for the upcoming week.This might include reviewing scripts, catching up on industry news, or simply enjoying quiet time with a book. 'Sundays are sacred,' he says. 'They're my chance to reset and recharge.'

Before bed, Perfetti often takes one final walk through his neighborhood. 'Brooklyn at night has this incredible energy that's both calming and inspiring, ' he reflects. 'It's the perfect way to end the weekend and begin a new week.'
