Osteria Cotta on the UWS; Outdoor Dining with a Cool NYC Vibe
Glenwood residents on the Upper West Side, put Osteria Cotta Restaurant and Wine Bar in your pocket for the next time you're up in the 80s, after a day on the Great Lawn, say, or a visit to the Museum of Natural History.
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 […]
Jean Michel Basquiat Street Art at Gagosian Chelsea Art Gallery
We love pretty much everything about Jean-Michael Basquiat, his art and his story. The teenage runaway turned NYC street artist, in the bad-old late-'70s days. Putting his Samo tag everywhere downtown turned him into a stratospheric art star in the 1980s. His extraordinarily prolific career ending in an instant one night in '88, dead from a […]
Simit and Smith: Turkish Bagels Come to the Upper West Side
Ok, let's just get this part out of the way first: if you're like 94.5% of the people in this town and have strong opinions about bagels and their varying degrees of goodness and New York-ness, don't go into Simit and Smith thinking these guys are trying to reinvent our city's beloved breakfast bread.
David Shrigley’s Signs at Anton Kern Gallery in Chelsea NYC
Three months ago the Chelsea gallery district was slammed by Sandy, with catastrophic flooding causing millions of dollars in damage, wrecking the area's infrastructure, and effectively shutting down the entire half-mile length of the cultural institution which, with its more than 400 separate art galleries, houses one of the largest and most important concentrations of […]
Get in on Levy’s Unique New York Freeze Tag Fun on Wall St NYC
If you grew up in the suburbs, you know how awesome it was to play all sorts of crazy games with a big pack of neighborhood kids, often in someone's backyard or even better, right out there on the street. Spud. Kickball. Stickball. Ding Dong Ditch (aka Ring and Run). Flashlight tag. Freeze tag. Blob […]
Giovanni Rana Opens in the Chelsea Market; Best Pasta in NYC
Because there's always room for more first-rate plates of pasta in this town, please join us in issuing a hearty "benvenuto!" to the Italian import Giovanni Rana Pastificio & Cucino, recently opened in the Chelsea Market. Giovanni Rana has been making pasta in Italy for more than half a century, so it's safe to say […]
Cocina Economica: Mexican Home Cooking on the Upper West Side
We were a little miffed when David and Vanida Bank closed their small but always-welcoming Amsterdam Avenue restaurant Recipe last year. With its comfortable, even slightly stylish room (for the Upper West Side anyway), and consistently good ingredient-driven food, Recipe had become one of our go-to neighborhood dinner spots.
Hudson Lodge; Ski-lodge Inspired Bar at the Hudson Hotel NYC
There is never a dull moment in the architecture at the Hudson Hotel in New York City. Between the flaming torch that marks the entrance accompanied by the stunning chandelier over the front desk to the gigantic watering-can on the terrace and the futuristic lighted floor at the bar, this NYC hotel demands your attention. […]
