BOWLED OVER

Brooklyn Bowl's Full Menu

You've may have heard of the fried chicken extravaganza going down at Williamsburg's newest bowling alley/bar/music hall, but what we're most excited about is pairing a bottle of Veuve with things like Egg Shooters, pulled-pork French bread pizzas, spiked bourbon milk shakes and all manner of other fresh Blue Ribbon goods for the sampling. They'll even carry it out to you on the lanes—because a little bourbon can do wonders for your spin.

The 3rd International Yo-Yo Open

The finest (yo-yo) athletes in the world descend on South Street Seaport this Saturday for an afternoon of fearsome tricks, live rock and a gold-plated yo-yo for whoever's foolish enough to drop $350 for it. The glory, of course, will last forever.

Sunday
Le Souk Lives
RE-SOUKING

Le Souk Lives

It's tasted the wrath of torch-wielding East Villagers and the State Liquor Authority, but the infamous late-night hookah lounge with the more infamous Sunday night simply refuses to die. This Sunday, it reopens in its old stomping grounds with a new set of kumquat-infused cocktails and the same Mediterranean madcap scene that got you in trouble back in April. Hopefully the bouncer still remembers you.

Aug 9, Le Souk, 47 Ave B (S. of E. 4th), 212-777-5454
