Momofuku Milk Bar: New on the Upper West Side
The West Side just got a whole lot sweeter. And pork bun-ier. Last week the James Beard Award-nominated rockstar pastry chef Christina Tosi brought her singular genius to Columbus Avenue with the opening of a terrific new Momofuku Milk Bar. We’re already long time huge fans of Tosi’s super-intense sweet treats, and are more than […]
NYC Bike Share demonstrations going on all of October!
A Bike Sharing Program for NYC Starting Next Summer The basics of Bike Share NYC are this: starting next summer hundreds of NYC Bikes will appear at dozens of self-service, solar-powered "docking stations" in hub-ish locations throughout Manhattan (below 79th Street) and in northwest Brooklyn, quickly expanding to other neighborhoods in all five boroughs if (when!) Bike Share NYC is deemed a success. New York's bike sharing program members members pay annual dues which, says the NYC Department of Transportation, will be "less that a monthly Metrocard", and can use any bike at any Bike Share NYC docking station for an unlimited number of 30- to 45-minute rides. Short term membership (daily, ride-based, etc.) will also be available. What Bike Share NYC is best at is giving you a pleasant, healthy, super-speedy alternative to using buses and subways and especially, providing convenient transportation to parts of town that are under-served by the MTA, such as the far west and east sides.
A Pair of East Village Restaurants: The Cardinal and Georgia’s Eastside BBQ
Say you’re hanging out in the East Village, or on the Lower East Side, or maybe seeing a movie at Sunshine Cinema on Houston, and a craving for BBQ hits. You know: ribs, chicken, and pulled pork; collards, baked beans, biscuits… the whole thing. For a few years now we’ve relied on the consistently good […]
The National 9/11 Memorial at the World Trade Center Site
You think you're prepared for the National 9/11 Memorial, which has been open to the public for a couple of weeks now at the World Trade Center site: you've seen the photographs and videos, you've read the descriptions and accounts, you've steeled yourself emotionally. But you're not prepared… not really. Or, at least, that how […]
de Kooning: A Retrospective at the MoMA
The MoMA unveils the first big NYC museum show of the season, and it's a doozy. de Kooning: A Retrospective, now at the Museum of Modern Art, is a huge exhibition, taking up the MoMA's entire sixth floor with almost 200 of de Kooning's paintings, as well as some prints, drawings and sculptures. As the […]
Daniel Boulud: Boulud Sud and Epicerie Boulud at Lincoln Center
When Daniel Boulud moved into the neighborhood, and over the past couple of years has transformed that key stretch of Broadway, right across from Lincoln Center's main plaza, into something like Boulud Boulevard, with three different restaurants wrapping around 64th Street: the charcuterie-centric Bar Boulud, the casual cafe Epicerie Boulud, and his newish Mediterranee delight, […]
Richard Serra Junction & Cycle at Gagosian Chelsea NYC Gallery
Two New Richard Serra Sculptures installed at Larry Gagosian Chelsea Gallery As usual, Larry Gagosian offers up the biggest show in Chelsea, NYC to start off the fall season. And we mean that literally: the biggest. Also: the heaviest, by about a gigaton or two. Yes, Richard Serra is working his usual massive-rusted-steel-plates magic here […]
Maison Ladurée New York: The Beloved Parisian Macaron Shop, Now On Madison Avenue
The normally placid climes of the Upper East Side were thrown into a frenzy a couple of weeks ago with the opening of the cultishly adored Parisian baker Maison Ladurée, right in the heart of Madison Avenue shopping territory. The lines were out the door and down the block; film crews and the paparazzi were […]
David Byrne: Tight Spot and Social Media, at Pace Gallery in Chelsea
The Chelsea gallery fall season is now in full swing, and last night we were lucky enough to attend one of the coolest openings in town, the panel discussion and party for music legend / author / conceptual artist / bicycle advocate David Byrne's dramatic sound and sculptural installation Tight Spot, as well the excellent […]
West Village Restaurant Red Farm: Tasty and Fun Dim Sum
It was about mid-August when former Chinatown Brasserie chef Joe Ng and “Chinese restaurant expert” Ed Schoenfeld finally opened Red Farm, their long-anticipated dim sum spot in the West Village on Hudson Street… and even during summer’s doggiest of days, the crowds have been turning the homey space into a party. Now that fall’s in […]
