Weekend is as weekend does.
Thanks to Perks, you’re receiving 25% off the world’s tiniest earphones—previously only available to FBI agents (seriously). Also, take 30% off a three-pack of cocktailing essentials (shaker, flask, handkerchiefs). Plus, we’re giving you $100 toward new gear from A.P.C., Gitman Vintage and more. Go on, take it.
If you can’t beat ’em, join ’em. And if you can’t join ’em... throw a party instead. So, enter Rosebud. They’re staging an outdoor screening of the Olympic opening ceremony. Complete with British-inspired fare (think fish and chips) and a Beatles cover band. Fake Ringo: always your favorite Beatle.
The Spotted Trotter is starting a monthly series of BYOB charcuterie nights on their porch. Today, you’ll reserve the plate you want (go for the one with cayenne chicharrones). And tomorrow, you’ll show up with two bottles of wine. It’s always good to bring backup.
Here’s the story of No. 246. One year ago, it opened. Three days from now, it’s throwing a birthday party. A ping-pong-and-Moretti-keg-filled birthday party. You’ll go to this. You’ll stay till the kegs are dry. The end. Good story.
It’s nice to be appreciated. Especially when it results in things like gratis hors d’oeuvres at happy hour, scotch tastings and cigar rollings. Café Circa, that seductive lounge on Edgewood, is using all six days next week to shower you with affection. And yes, finger foods, scotches and cigars.
It’s hot. Hundred-degrees hot. Perfect downward-facing-dog weather. Which is why the spa at Loews is taking a bunch of yogis out onto its terrace on Wednesday. Stop by. Sweat a lot. And for your troubles, a gratis post-workout smoothie and chair massage. Inner peace: achieved.
