FP Patisserie; Francois Payard’s French Bakery Returns to the Upper East Side
It takes a lot of chutzpah to open up a high-end French bakery in NYC, complete with refined, old-school "tea salon" right across the street from a superb French bakery, Maison Kayser, which also boasts an always-packed casual eatery. But French pastry chef Francois Payard has never been accused of lacking confidence and so, after […]

Ann Hamilton Installation at the Park Avenue Armory
Who knew getting giddy on the swings at Ann Hamilton’s enormous installation at the Park Avenue Armory could possibly the most fun you’ll ever have ‘viewing’ art.

Now Dig This! African-American Artists at MoMA PS1
Los Angeles didn’t have an easy go of it during the 1960s and 70s.

New York City Ice Skating at the Standard Hotel
The Standard Hotel Ice Rink, located below New York’s popular High Line Park in the Meatpacking District, is by no means the largest ice skating rink in town. Measuring just 3,000 square feet, this is not the surface on which to fine tune your Olympic skating skills. However, the Standard Hotel ice rink is […]

Chelsea Art Galleries Exhibit Chuck Close and The Ozymandias Parade
Hurricane Sandy’s terrible storm surge hit the West Chelsea art gallery district hard. It completely flooded the half-mile of West 20th to 29th streets between 10th and 11th Avenues.
