Today, in New York noodle news... (Honestly, we just wanted to say New York noodle news. You try it. New York noodle news.) And now that that’s out of our system, let’s discuss the arrival of E.A.K. Ramen: the first stateside outpost of a Japanese chain known for some damn tasty and unique broth, now open in Greenwich Village. The style you’re
In a dimly lit black-and-gold lounge, a couple bonds over rum-covered flaming chicken chops. A woman at the bar flips an ignited inside-out lime over to dump addional liquor into a goblet full of lemongrass and rhum (for narrative purposes, we’re using the “H” here). Nearby, a man gently plucks a corn cake from a bicycle basket and dunks it generously
At last, the pizza gods have heard your prayers. Oh, that wasn’t you? Got it. Well, the pizza gods have heard some other person who prays to pizza gods’ prayers. And they’ve thoughtfully bestowed upon us all a brand new location of the much-loved, much-hyped pizza spot Emily. It’s opening tomorrow in the West Village for dinner, with lunch
Some mornings you just want to grab a mediocre bacon, egg and cheese on a soft Kaiser roll and be on your way. This isn’t about those mornings. This is about the times you squeeze in a pre-work pit stop to Egg Shop—the new one though—now open in Williamsburg for breakfast tacos, midday ranchero burritos and later-in-the-day frozen margaritas. Let’s
Today, in places to sit beneath shimmering orange walls patterned with records and microphones with a heaping plate of glazed Korean shortribs... [pauses for breath] Phil & Anne’s Good Time Lounge: a friendly neighborhood spot that wants you to drink something summery, share some (maybe healthy, but probably not) plates and generally have a good time
Date spot of the summer. Highest potential for a killer sunset photo involving the skyline and numerous New York City bridges. Largest selection of interesting Spritzes. Most dapper waiters. (Okay, this one’s a tie with The Grill.) The amout of awards we’d award this spot is ridiculous. Indeed, it’s safe to say we’re half in love with Cecconi’s Dumbo:
It’s the newest place out east for open-air dates right on the marina. Said dates will involve consuming charred squid with passion fruit, lobster-scallop-black truffle pasta and cocktails mixed by a man who is low-key one of the best mixologists around. Said dates are going to be a success for all of the above reasons. So off you head to Flagship, a
Hark! Always wanted to yell-type that. Anyway, Hark! DeKalb Market Hall is open. It’s a sprawling underground Downtown Brooklyn space stacked with some 40-odd vendors—both enticing new spots and familiar names. The space is tucked under Fulton Mall, an escalator ride down into a land full of tacos, pierogis and heaping reuben sandwiches. It’s your classic
There is a place in Little Italy where your Negronis flow freely from silver spouts, tableside tiramisu service is standard, and all your wild boar parpardalle dreams come to fruition. It’s a place called Dante at Genuine: a collaboration in which the beloved and ancient Italian Greenwich Village café has taken over the California-inspired eatery-slash-bar,
Some five-ish years ago, you may recall, the bacon industry was flourishing.
