Kenny Scharf Art, Donuts, and Merchandise at Paul Kasmin Gallery in NYC
Even if the name isn’t ringing a bell, you probably recognize Kenny Scharf’s distinctive, cartoony style. After all, Scharf’s an SVA grad who has been showing in galleries and museums all over town–and all over the world–since the early 1980s.

Nish Nush in Tribeca; Home to the Best Falafel in Downtown NYC
Ok, we admit it: we're no experts in the falafel field. Sure, we could reel off a list for you in a heartbeat of NYC's best cookies, best doughnuts, best pizza, best burgers, cupcakes, fish tacos, bagels, barbecue, ramen… but for whatever reason–perhaps too many bad experiences?–that other great NYC staple, the falafel, has never […]
Dulce Vida Cafe; Authentic Colombian Restaurant in New York City
Dulce Vida Cafe and Bakery, Lexington Avenue restaurant, is the type of place that you'd probably hurry past a hundred times without much more than a glance or two in the window. Inside, the mishmash of table-clothed dining to your right, huge food photos plastered to your left (are those coffee beans?), combined with the […]
NYC Museum Opens New Exhibit; Tenement Museum Unveils Shop Life
It had been a few years since we last checked in with the terrific Tenement Museum in NYC; we'd gone twice in the late-aughts to what they now call the Sweatshop Workers tour. We took the trip with our kids and some out-of-town guests, and highly recommend it. But with the opening last month of […]
Bill Brandt Photography at MoMa; Shadow and Light exhibition
England's Bill Brandt is certainly one of the most influential photographers of the 20th century, a journalist and artist whose brilliant compositions, combined with his love of everyday subject matter, helped redefine the medium and spark the modernist movement. Which is laudable and important and all that, but more to the point, Brandt's photographs–of London […]
New York Tea Shops; Teavana Tea vs. Le Palais des Thes Tea
As recently as a few months ago you'd be hard pressed to find more than a couple decent tea shops anywhere in town. You know, the kind of place you could discover all sorts of exotic loose leaves, guided by a knowledgeable staff, where you can smell and/or sample lots of different varieties of anything […]
El Mitote; Mexican Restaurant on Upper West Side
Casual Mexican restaurant El Mitote sits smack in the heart of our regular Upper West Side stomping grounds, a few blocks up from Glenwood's Grand Tier and, thus, also right near the neighborhood's three movie theaters, as well as everything Lincoln Center-y. And the El Mitote menu is totally appealing for a quick bite, specializing […]
Madison Square Park Art; Topsy-Turvy Camera Obscura Installation
Want to see the beautiful, historic Flatiron building in a new/old light? Just last week the Madison Square Park Conservancy’s excellent public art group Mad. Sq. Art opened the latest large-scale installation to grace its grounds, a giant Camera Obscura which visitors can enter and marvel at the old-timey magic this simple device delivers.
Harold Dieterle’s Marrow; Elegant NYC Restaurant in West Village
Harold Dieterle nails it again. When Chef Dieterle won the first season of Top Chef back in the mid-aughts, he parlayed his prize money into the pretty Cornelia Street spot Perilla, which has enjoyed a steady stream of contented guests ever since.
