The Warrior shoes keep it simple. Canvas upper. Substantial rubber sole. (Basically, all you want on your feet during summer.) And for the first time, they’ve designed a green pair—exclusively for Perks members. (No socks till fall.) Plus, we’re getting you 25% off a selection of handsome Swiss dive watches.
Schwa. Next. Aviary. The Office. All checked off your to-do list. Your new challenge: El, an eight-seat kitchen/dining room hybrid with Phillip Foss (ex-Lockwood) and Andrew Brochu (ex-Kith & Kin) performing elaborate 11-course feats of gastronomic excess. Reservations are made via lottery. So plan on getting lucky.
TRUCKED IN
Food Trucks and Doggy Dining
Damn crazy food trucks. You’re done chasing them like a dog... in fact, so is your dog. So Ethyl’s patio hosts seven of them—including the Gaztro-Wagon, Tamalli Space Charros, More Cupcakes and the new Fido to Go, a van catering to hipster pooches. Yes, you read that right.
You have a hazy memory of something people once did in this town. It involved a DJ... and a floor... and swinging body parts in syncopation. Oh, yeah: dancing. It makes a comeback with a late-night throwdown hosted by some NYC mega-party operators... so you got some representin’ to do.
Ah, summer at the beach. The sun. The sand. The crunk. All will be available in heaping doses at this volleyball tourney and afternoon beach bash. Lil Jon will perform a set, plus you’ll find games, food and lots of beverages—never crunk without proper hydration.
It’s too late for your team of world-class kickballers to register for Chicago Bear Greg Olsen’s charity tournament. Instead, support the charity as a spectator, where you’ll meet the tight end, indulge in a complimentary beer tent and join the after-party at Joe’s. So you’re going to be pretty busy regardless.
