Francois Payard’s Bakery New York, New on West Houston Street
Francois Payard's dreams of an eclair empire here in New York City may have been set back a bit two summers ago, when the renowned pastry chef closed his namesake patisserie on the Upper East Side after a rent fight with his landlord. But with the recent opening of Francois Payard's Bakery NYC on West […]
The International Center for Photography in NYC presents/..The Mexican Suitcase and Cuba in Revolution
It's kind of a small, sterile-feeling space–think institutional gallery rather than museum–but New York City's International Center of Photography almost always puts on a good show. And the two exhibitions running now are particularly noteworthy, both for photojournalists (and its fans, like us) as well as anyone easily engaged by 20th-century history (um…. also like […]
NYC Green Apartments: Green Power in Glenwood Buildings
New York City living is already relatively energy efficient and eco-friendly (think: mass transit, lots of walking, smaller living spaces to heat and power than similarly-priced houses in subrurban and rural areas), but Glenwood Management is committed to going even further to create NYC green apartments. As of right now, 25% off all the energy […]
Artichoke Basille’s Pizza Restaurant and Bar
We’re huge fans of the hole-in-the-wall Artichoke Pizza slice joint on East 14th Street: the Margarita (“regular”) slice is beautifully balanced and topped with fresh ingredients; the Sicilian, also, is excellent, the crust light and crunchy; and the signature Artichoke slice, slathered with an insanely rich and creamy spinach, cheese and artichoke sauce? Like eating […]
Abstract Expressionist New York at the MoMA
The MoMA digs deep (and wide) into their extraordinary permanent collection for the blockbuster show of the season, Abstract Expressionist New York, a celebration of the creative explosion that burst through this town in the 1940s and '50s. Taking up the Museum of Modern Art's entire fourth floor–the first time an exhibition has done so […]
Jeffrey’s Grocery, new in the West Village
If the eatery gods insist upon setting fire to your hugely popular restaurant, forcing you to close for weeks (or–yikes!–even longer), it definitely helps to have just opened up a new place right across the street. And so is the case with Gabe Stulman, and his damaged (but not too severely) Joseph Leonard, and his […]
Burger & Barrel NYC Winepub: Brand New in Soho
We stopped by the just-opened Burger & Barrel NYC yesterday evening, fingers crossed, hopes high, appetites eager for meat. Located on Houston Street diagonally across from the Angelika Theater, Burger & Barrel is the latest from the team behind the high(ish)-end Soho standbys Lure Fishbar and Mercer Kitchen, as well as, in one configuration or another, […]
Socrates Sculpture Park in Long Island City
One of New York City's great under-hyped little gems is Long Island City's Socrates Sculpture Park, set on a patch of Queens riverbank. The art here–large outdoor sculptures–is always fun and interesting, the setting unique, the atmosphere festive and communal, the views of the water and Manhattan's Upper East Side wide-open and fairly stunning. Recently […]
Reduce, Reuse, and Recycle Tips and Tricks for NYC Dwellers
Reduce Is it possible to reduce your carbon footprint to zero? Even if you live, not on some farm somewhere, but here in New York City? Well, yes, if you're Colin Beavan, aka No Impact Man, who in 2007 embarked on a year-long experiment to see if he and his family–wife Michelle Conlin, […]
Chef Michael White: New Rustic Italian at Osteria Morini
With Osteria Morini, a brand new rustic Italian restaurant on Lafayette Street in Soho, Chef Michael White pulls off the exceedingly difficult but enormously appealing trick of combining the best of all possible restaurant worlds. The food here–all rich and meaty, from Northern Italy's Emilia-Romagna region–is excellent, worthy of a true destination restaurant; while the rustic decor […]
