Otto Dix at the Neue Galerie New York, Last Chance: Closes August 30!
Otto Dix was a major part of the excellent Glitter and Doom show a few years back at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, and his work also figured prominently in the MoMA's recent Dada exhibition. But this summer, the Neue Galerie in New York on the Upper East Side has been hosting the country's first-ever […]
Xiao Ye NYC: Taiwanese Street Food on the Lower East Side
We couldn't help but think of David Chang and his now-mighty Momofuku empire when we grabbed a few quick bites at Xiao Ye in NYC the other night. Located on Orchard Street just below Houston, Xiao Ye is the new Taiwanese street food joint from the young, opinionated, and undeniably talented Eddie Huang, whose tiny […]
A Met Fashion Exhibition: American Woman Closes After this Weekend
It’s definitely a little old-school Disneyworld, the Costume Institute’s summer-long crowd-pleaser of a fashion exhibition at the Metropolitan Museum of Art, American Woman: Fashioning a National Identity, with its borderline cheesy lighting, background murals, and piped-in scene-setting sounds. But that in no way suggests that the clothing on display isn’t fascinating, and often eye-opening […]
Community Food & Juice NYC
For a little while there, Community Food & Juice was our go-to spot whenever we were up in the Morningside Heights / Columbia University area. With its comfortable, convivial room and a menu filled with simple dishes, made with fresh ingredients, consistently prepared with care, this uptown outpost of the great Clinton Street Baking Co. […]
Summer Streets NYC starts on Saturday, this year with dumpster pools!
If we weren’t going swimming in the deep, crystalline waters of Lake Winnipesaukee this weekend (wooooo-hooooo!) we would definitely be dipping in the NYC dumpster pools set up near Grand Central Terminal this Saturday. That’s right: last summer’s exclusive, hipster, wet-n-wild action is this summer’s populist, family fun! Of course, these dumpster pools were […]
The Imagination Playground, near the South Street Seaport
Just opened downtown, right next door to the South Street Seaport, The Imagination Playground lives up to superstar designer David Rockwell's promise to create a space for New York City kids that would "break all the normal rules." We stopped by last Saturday, and never have we seen so many little kids so happily and […]
Vapiano Restaurant: Brand New “Fast-Casual” Italian Near Union Square
They are all over Europe, these almost-tacky “fast-casual” Italian spots (we like the tree and the seating and the shape of the bowls; the red chandelier and the signage, not so much), and Vapiano, Inc., has made inroads in America, popping up here and there on the East Coast over the past couple of years. […]
The New Museum NYC Presents Rivane Neuenschwander: A Day Like Any Other
We've discussed our frustration with the New Museum in Manhattan before: how we love the design of the building (and its signage), both inside and out; and its location at the eastern end of Prince Street, near so much great shopping and eating and gallery-going; and its Sky Room terrace, with those sweeping views of […]
Fatty ‘Cue in Brooklyn: the best barbecue in NYC?
We've been huge Chef Zakary Pelaccio fans for a while now, ever since his first-rate Fatty Crab brought the full Malaysian funk to the West Village/Meatpacking District in 2006. Last year the excellent Fatty Crab UWS proved that Pelaccio could transport his intense flavors and energy to the usually-play-it-safe, family-friendly West 70s, with no loss […]
Summer Place at Bonni Benrubi Gallery in New York
It's been like 400 million degrees in New York City all month, so a visit to Bonni Benrubi Gallery in NYC on 57th Street seemed like an even better idea than usual this past weekend. From now through summer's end in late September, the renowned gallery hosts a terrific group show of wonderfully evocative, […]
