Brooklyn date spot of the summer. Best playlist we've heard in recent months. Most beautiful presentation of a hamachi appetizer. All are among the fake awards we might award this place, if we were in the mood to give some fake awards. It's called Oxomoco, and it's a gorgeous new space for interesting tacos and flower-topped cocktails and consuming both
You're at dinner, seated across from someone you like sharing dinners with—the two of you savoring a couple of Saffron Vespers. Nice shirt, by the way. Your date rattles off a few things they'd like: oven-fried garlic knots smothered in everything bagel seasoning. Avocado bruschetta. Another round, this time of Macchina martinis, with herbs and olive
The next time you're in Meatpacking craving a spicy soppressata-topped pizza with only a few minutes to spare, make straight for SIMÒ Pizza.

Well, apparently it's the frozen dessert from which the ice creams we know today evolved, first developed in the Mediterranean some 500-plus years ago. It's also smoother, denser, creamier and more elastic than its modern counterparts... and it's available at this new Williamsburg scoop shop
Today, we've got for you the second outpost of Avant Garden, the prettiest new vegan spot in Williamsburg. It's now open for all your summer dating needs, which we're going to assume are plentiful. You may be familiar with its sister restaurant, should you have been with us for a few years now, or should you randomly be tuned into the best plant-based
There's a new Kings Co Imperial in town—it's the second outpost of the beloved Williamsburg (American-) Chinese spot, and it'll be ready for you to eat meals inside of it as soon as this very Monday. So, if you've been to the original location, you know the drill here: wok-seared dumplings, rum cocktails in tiki vessels and a space that feels properly
There's a brand new "Uni Fest" menu on offer at the minimalist Midtown East Japanese spot Mifune New York—and it's got some of the most outlandish uni-involving dishes we've seen.
