Live from Atlanta... it’s the weekend.
For your neck: $60 gets you $100 worth of ties, scarves and pocket squares from NYC-based handsomeness experts The Hill-side. For your wrist: 29% off fully functional, leather-bound lighter cufflinks. For your... everything else: access to a lifetime of private jetting... for just 300 bucks.
Compared to last week, it’s been a really long week. So we figured right about now you could really use some sort of relief. Cue Cucina Asellina and STK. They’re teaming up for a little after-work special of gratis apps, dry martinis and short rib in the form of sliders. Love thy neighbors.
Here’s something new: a pop-up within a pop-up. Hudson North is commissioning Eli Kirshtein to take over the menu this weekend. Up his sleeve: pork skewers, sashimi and Ginger-Yuzu Floats (ginger ice cream, ginger ale, sake). Also up his sleeve: arms.
Mimosas. They’re not just for Sundays anymore. Seriously, you should try one on a Monday. Like this Monday, at Aria, with a bunch of fresh pastries and Thomas Keller (yes, the French Laundry/Per Se guy). He’ll be there doing a meet and greet for his new cookbook. No, you don’t have to read it.
So, Reservoir Dogs just turned 20. And to celebrate, you’re going to grab a date and head to the recently-renovated-with-reclining-seats Phipps Plaza for a special screening. Hey, it was this or cut a man’s ear off...
Food 101 is having a five-course charity dinner next Wednesday. Also on Wednesday, the official opening of their new bourbon bar, Barrel Bar. The place has a new look (think butcher paper instead of white linens) and a whole bunch of bourbon. Because, you know, there’s a bourbon bar.
