Garfield. Now there’s a guy who knew a thing or two about lasagna. And Mondays. He’d love this place. You two have that in common. It’s Gelso & Grand, a bi-level giant of Italian sustenance and the occasional group dinner. She opens this weekend in Little Italy, and she’s bringing free-form eggplant lasagna. This may look familiar to you. It was the
Today we bring tidings of great queso. At Javelina, a tucked-away Gramercy spot where the things you like about Texas and those you like about Mexico come together in post-work dinner form. It’s opening Wednesday. You don’t get much real Tex-Mex around these parts. Shame, that. Because who’s turning down brisket tacos, three kinds of queso and an avocado
Sorry to put you on the spot, but there’s a philosophical issue you need to resolve. How many grilled cheeses is enough? We say 10. Ten grilled cheeses is the sweet spot. Exhibit A: Amused, the Upper West Side’s number one destination for you getting Ramen Carbonara and cocktails that come in a cough syrup bottle. It opens Friday. There’s this big
Tomorrow. Tomorrow. You’ll love this. Tomorrow. It’s only a day away. And it includes a lot of beef. It’s Black Tap, the place with more burgers per square foot than any other in this godforsaken slushy hellscape (alt: great city). It’ll open the day after today in SoHo. They call it a luncheonette, and that’s how it appears. So prepare to come for
Imagine if Seamless were about, oh, 10 trillion times better than it is. And now your expectations are properly set for this. It’s called Munchery, and it’s a food delivery service where some of the planet’s better chefs make stuff for you directly. It just launched here online and via app. These guys launched in SF almost four years ago, took a
Stop not eating pizza. Look at you, you’re just not doing it right now. We can’t stand idly by while it happens. Just get to Rocky Slims, a breathtaking Italian spot for pizza and cocktails, now open in, wait for it, Kips Bay. Post-work dates, post-work drinks, post-work pizzas and the occasional group-dinner situation. All occasions for which you’ll be
“And then we sauntered over the purple carpet to the gold leather throne chair and summoned the man with the rolling martini vehicle.” Oh, sorry, we were just telling someone about Charlie Palmer at the Knick, a huge, segmented, all-day power-dining situation at a pretty legendary Midtown hotel. She’s open now. Let’s go through what you really need
This is the last Monday of the winter of 2015. Traditionally known as the unofficial beginning of French-leisure-sport season. Don’t look that up. Just pull up a chair at La Gauloise, one of those quintessential veal-wine-and-bar-games French spots, now open in Hudson Square. What you’ve got here is what you picture when someone says the word
Every once in a while, something really terrible happens in the world. This is one of those times that’s the opposite of that. For it is Sol, a pint-size refuge of Spanish seafood in the English basement beneath the Bourgeois Pig. And it’s open now. Basically what you’re looking at is a sushi bar and a wine bar and the coziest date spot you’re
Remember Duck Hunt? This is like that but a lot more delicious. There will be no blowing on the cartridge at Irvington, an immense monument to ducks and flatbreads and cocktails and you partaking of them. The doors fly open tomorrow at the W Union Square. The humans responsible for Kingside and the Roof did this. A few quick recommendations: you
