Craft Cocktails and Delicious Indian Food at UES Drunken Munkey
It’s not really news any longer that the Upper East Side is enjoying an emergence of fun, interesting, even downright hip nightlife options, with restaurants and cocktail programs that seem to have been shipped in from NYC’s trendier precincts.
