The weekend is nigh.
Your final Perks of 2013: 1) Supremely elegant, old-timey maps of the world’s most iconic cities. For 50% off. 2) Up to 25% off pocket-size power grids—so you never have to deal with dead-phone anxiety again. 3) A four-pack of Tuscany’s best wines. This is what feasts are made for.
Should you be in the market for an over-the-top, dance-all-night kind of party with DJs named Deadmau5 and Kaskade... that can be arranged. Just get to the convention center on Friday (and/or Saturday) for flashing lights, gyrating crowds and, probably, energy drinks mixed with champagne. Okay, definitely.
If you’re going to survive New Year’s Eve, you’ll need some food in your system. Pakpao has some food. Good food. Like blue crabs and noodles. So eat that and then stick around for a live Thai rock band. They’ll be playing all your favorite Thai rock songs.
Tuesday at midnight. It’s going to be great. But if you’re feeling impatient, there’s this around-the-world party at Windmill Lounge. Each hour you’ll toast to a different city as their respective clocks strike midnight. Hey, it’s only fair...
The Granada’s provided you with many good times this year. And for their encore: a New Year’s Eve concert with Jonathan Tyler & the Northern Lights, plus the Quaker City Night Hawks. They’ll be the ones making all that noise.
It’s best to start the new year off right, with a resolution beginning immediately on January 1. Preferably one that’s easy to keep. Like brunching on steak and eggs at Fearing’s to absolve all your partied-too-hard-the-night-before sins. That sounds doable.
