HOT HAPPENINGS AROUND TOWN by Francis Lewis

Fresh from its 75th birthday last year, American Ballet Theatre is on its toes at the Metropolitan Opera House. Shimmering works, such as choreographer Alexei Ratmansky’s “The Golden Cockerel” (below), which receives its American premiere, add luster to the eight-week repertoire of crowd-pleasing classics (“Sylvia,” “La Fille mal gardée,” “Le Corsaire,” “Swan Lake,” “Romeo and Juliet” and “The Sleeping Beauty,” among them). | abt.org, thru July 2

THEATER NEWS by Francis Lewis

Dressing the Part

“Tuck Everlasting,” the new Broadway musical, isn’t the largest show that Gregg Barnes has designed costumes for—there are 98 costumes compared to 400 in “Aladdin”—but it feels big because Barnes packs 200 years of American fashion into those 98 costumes. For example, Victorian-era “boudoir dolls” inspired the look of the carnival gal (below, left), while the ensemble member’s dress (below, right) is pure 1930s. However, when describing the costume for the show’s villain, known only as The Man in the Yellow Suit (below, center), Barnes resorts to food terms. The suit’s color is “Grey Poupon mustard,” he says, “but more acidic than that. His shirt is a lemon meringue. His coat conjures up a bad taste in your mouth.” For an accessory, Barnes found a hand-painted tie of a naked lady. “I thought, ‘Wouldn’t it be funny if the old boy’s not dead yet, but still has a sexual side.’” | “Tuck Everlasting,” Broadhurst Theatre, 235 W. 44th St., 212.239.6200

Waitressing on Broadway

In the second act of the new Broadway musical “Waitress,” Keala Settle (left) stops the show when she launches into composer/lyricist Sara Bareilles’ “I Didn’t Plan It.” It’s a powerful anthem sung by a woman who has taken risks and survived. And Settle sells it. “The light turned red and I ran it,” she rocks out, “and I’m still standing.” In a show set in a diner known for its homemade pies, Settle has definitely sunk her teeth into the part of Becky, one of three waitresses who form a strong bond. “Becky is basically the flavor of the trio,” Settle says. “She has a boss, but she walks and talks to the beat of her own drum. She’s the nurturer, the mother of the trio.” To prepare for her onstage physical life, Settle, who has never waitressed, took a crash course with the other actresses in how to write out a check; how to wrap knives, forks and spoons in a paper napkin; how to prep coffee; and how to hold plates. And because a waitress stands a lot on the job, she’s learned that the most important part of her uniform is comfortable shoes. | “Waitress,” Brooks Atkinson Theatre, 256 W. 47th St., 877.250.2929

Second Time Around

Jeff Daniels (above) doesn’t shy away from calling “Blackbird,” the play in which he and Michelle Williams co-star, “ugly, ugly stuff.” Ray, Daniels’ character, had a sexual relationship with a 12-year-old girl when he was 40; now, after not seeing each other for 15 years, Una confronts him in his workplace. The wounds have never healed; the emotions are still raw. In 2007, Daniels was in an acclaimed Off-Broadway production of David Harrower’s harrowing (pun intended) play. Why put himself through it again, this time on Broadway? “It would be easier not to,” he admits. “I feel like I was good [the first time] but that I didn’t go all the way. I want to live Ray, not just play him. I’m certainly throwing everything I have at it in the hope that that will be the result.” | “Blackbird,” Belasco Theatre, 111 W. 44th St., 212.239.6200

THE RETAIL SCENE by Joni Sweet

Modern Menswear

Brookfield Place is rapidly turning into the go-to destination for men’s fashion. Guys are spoiled for choice at Ermenegildo Zegna, Gucci, Kamakura Shirts and now Hickey Freeman, which recently opened at the downtown shopping center. The store offers suits, sport coats, trousers and overcoats in 180 luxurious, innovative fabrics, designed and manufactured in Rochester, New York. The store also creates made-to-measure shirts and suits—a first for the 117-year-old brand. Once shoppers have found the perfect look, they can customize it with tasteful, versatile ties (right) and accessories. | Hickey Freeman,

Coming Up Roses Everything’s coming up roses at Lord & Taylor this spring, as the department store revives its brand symbol, the rose. Company president Dorothy Shaver introduced the American Beauty rose in 1946 to symbolize the store’s “refined taste.” The store shifts its motif to the Free Spirit varietal this season, part of the brand’s push toward younger, contemporary styles. Find the rose on headband crowns (above), notebooks (below), sunglasses, cameras, purses and other feminine products. | Lord & Taylor, 424

You can never have too much of a good thing. NARS Cosmetics takes that to heart with a new version of its “Orgasm” blush. This cultfollowed, illuminating color gets a limited-edition makeover in a luxe, oversize compact, complete with a flirty, protective transparency, special logo and mirror etched with “#WhatMakesYouBlush.” | NARS, 413 Bleecker St., 646.459.2323

Silver Platter Bleecker Street recently got a touch of silver with the opening of a Christofle boutique, the Parisian brand’s second NYC location. The well-designed shop, with back-lit honeycomb display cases hinting at Christofle’s bee logo, boasts a selection of fine silver gifts and accessories, like scented candles, bracelets, rings, key chains and cuff links. Shoppers will also discover sophisticated items for homes and offices, like intricately etched flatware, crystal vases, silver-plated ashtrays and minimalist paperweights. When it comes to silver, Christofle is clearly the gold standard. | Christofle, 396 Bleecker St., 646.878.1066

THE AFTER-DARK SCENE by Joni Sweet

French Secret Look behind the bookshelf in Chez Moi restaurant, and you’ll discover a secret entrance, which leads to Le Boudoir speakeasy. The Marie Antoinette-themed den drips with French opulence—red-velvet banquettes, gilded mirrors, neoclassical paintings, and floors and bathrooms that replicate those of the queen herself. Naturally, drinks are served in silver-plated goblets. | Le Boudoir, 135 Atlantic Ave., Brooklyn, 347.227.8337

Gin & Jam

It’s not unheard of for great bartenders to spend their off-hours painstakingly creating infusions and cocktail bitters. The bartenders at Madam Geneva, a gin bar on the Bowery, take things a step further by making their own elaborate jams (strawberry, rhubarb, vanilla, clove and star anise, for example) for the Jam Drink (a tasty blend of Aviation gin, lemon, sugar and a dollop of jam). This is the place to go to experience gin in all its complexity—the staff has carefully selected the right option from its vast collection of aged and rare boutique gins to highlight the uniquely floral and fruity notes in each cocktail. | Madam Geneva, 4 Bleecker St., 212.254.0350

Up All Night

If you’re the type who kicks off the night with an energy drink, I have the place for you. Kobrick Coffee Co. marries two essential vices—coffee and booze—into its cocktails. Skip the Red Bull and sip on a Mexican Jumping Bean (reposado tequila, ristretto shot, China-China amer liqueur and agave nectar) or the Bottled on Broadway (cold-brew coffee, aged rum, vodka, simple syrup and aromatic bitters). Or, keep it simple with the “Family Discount”—a shot of both espresso and liquor. | Kobrick Coffee Co., 24 Ninth Ave., 212.255.5588

Dance Fever

How many times have you gone into a dance club, only to find a crowd too arrogant to shake a leg? The unabashed audience at Howl at the Moon, a dueling piano bar in Midtown, is of a totally different ilk, shamelessly twirling and bopping to everything from Justin Bieber to the Beatles. Got a favorite jam? The band takes song requests and seriously impresses showgoers with high-energy covers of Top 40 hits, classic rock, rap and 1990s favorites. Once I heard the band’s cover of Queen’s “Bohemian Rhapsody,” I was convinced of its ability to play any song. If you need a drink to get you in the mood, Howl at the Moon’s (literal) buckets of booze will do the trick. | Howl at the Moon, 240 W. 52nd St., 212.399.4695

FASCINATING ART DISPLAYS by Terry Trucco

Painted Poetry

Cover-ups

As African artists know, masks are transformative: By changing the wearer’s identity, they define relationships between individuals and communities. Pairing masks by contemporary artists with works like “Helmet Mask for Sande Society (Ndoli Jowei)” by the Nguabu Master (Mende) (above, late19th/early-20th century), “Disguise: Masks and Global African Art” shows the power of art through obscuring. | Brooklyn Museum, 200 Eastern Parkway, Prospect Heights, Brooklyn, 718.638.5000, thru Sept. 18

After experimenting with figurative art, Spanish-born artist Esteban Vicente (1903-2001) immigrated to the U.S. in 1936, embraced abstraction and teamed up with Abstract Expressionists like Mark Rothko, Jackson Pollock and Willem de Kooning, whose New York studio was on the same floor as Vincente’s. An artist of poetic eloquence— his work fills a museum in Segovia—Vicente painted almost until his death at age 97 in Bridgehampton, New York, creating lyrical abstractions like “Color Luz” (below left, 1999) and “Untitled” (below right, 1999). | Ameringer/McEnery/Yohe, 525 W. 22nd St., 212.445.0051, thru May 21

Not So Pure

In her perceptive, razor-sharp work, Adriana Varejão confronts the tensions between race and ethnicity in her native Brazil. Informed by her studies of anthropology, colonial trade and demography, “Kindred Spirits,” her new self-portrait series (detail, above, 2015), questions the idea of racial-purity paintings and reminds us that cultures are evolving constantly. | Lehmann Maupin, 201 Chrystie St., 212.254.0054, thru June 19

Biting Elegance Renowned for influential, idiosyncratic conceptual work addressing race and power in America, Illinois-born David Hammons is art’s Greta Garbo, forgoing interviews and exhibiting rarely. That makes “Five Decades” an event. In this biting but elegant 33-piece retrospective set to Japanese court music, Hammons’ gimlet eye transforms the gallery’s white-walled East Side town house, pairing, among other things, a paint-splashed fur coat with a boardedover mirror and redefining the meaning of art. | Mnuchin Gallery, 45 E. 78th St., 212.861.0020, thru May 27

LL Cool J, one of the most respected hip-hop artists, a consistent Grammy Awards host and star of CBS television’s “NCIS: Los Angeles,” had firsthand advice for Justin Bieber in 2013, the year that Bieber was—shall we say—living dangerously. LL, who also got an early start in the music business, offered simply this: Don’t try so hard to be cool, stay away from drugs and, most important of all, remember why you got into the music business in the first place. Over the past year, it seems as though Bieber has taken much of that advice to heart, or has simply grown into his own skin more: He is back on the road with a vengeance on his worldwide “Purpose” tour, appearing at Barclays Center in Brooklyn May 4 and 5. If you’ve been hit with Bieber fever (or even if you haven‘t), you may remember a towheaded 16-year-old who was first seen and heard singing the hit “Baby” across the world. Even earlier than that, he was becoming known to a new generation of social-media mongers: His mother, Pattie Mallette, started posting Bieber’s earliest home performances on YouTube around 2007. When he was 12, his high-pitched voice and soulful rendition of Ne-Yo’s song “So Sick” got the attention of record executive Scott “Scooter” Braun, who signed Bieber to the Raymond Braun Media Group, a joint venture between Braun and pop star Usher. Although Bieber has emulated Usher with strong record sales, popularity and worldwide recognition, fame came with a price attached.

Straying from his young and inocent pop image, Bieber began acting out, becoming a media target for his reckless behavior. Starting as early as 2011, when the singer was just 17, he began displaying signs of teen angst and attitude. Flipping the bird to the paparazzi, reckless driving, vandalism and shouting obscenities about former President Bill Clinton just skim the surface of Bieber’s troubles. His bad-boy image has been captured on camera phones, leaked to TMZ and broadcasted across the Internet, causing many people to wonder, “What happened to this innocent boy?” But that behavior seems to be behind him. In 2015, he posed for a Calvin Klein ad, followed by two top 10 hits, “Where Are Ü Now” and “What Do You Mean?” Both songs were co-written by R&B songwriter Jason “Poo Bear” Boyd, with “Where Are Ü Now,” winning a Grammy this year in the Best Dance Recording category. Bieber’s “Purpose” tour comes after a more-than-a-year hiatus, during which time he expanded his musical base. After touring for his album “Believe” in 2012, Bieber diverged from his traditionally pop sound to work on a musical collection titled “Journals,” only released digitally, in which he collaborated with respected R&B producers, such as Andre Harris and The Audibles. “Journals,” showing musical growth and honesty, allowed Bieber to break away from his teen pop musical roots and become an artist that more serious musicians wanted to work with. The Los Angeles Times enthused that “Journals” took up Bieber’s “evolving reputation with surprising candor,” while the New York Daily News noted that the album “[found] an energy in Bieber’s deepening personality.” The new maturity of Bieber’s voice is what is lending an added depth to his songs. His musical talents—playing drums, guitar and piano—also aid in Bieber’s new musical ventures. On a well-known hip-hop and indie music blog, one critic recently noted that Bieber is modulating his voice more and, in general, taking more risks, making music for an audience “old enough to legally drink.” Dining recently at New York City’s newest hot spot Carbone, the young artist confided that half the battle is not being afraid to get hurt, a theme that runs through his new album “Purpose,” which was released this past November. Bieber documents his personal life through the 50-plus tattoos that cover much of his body and display the all-too-common effects of heartbreak and pain that come with young success. His first tattoo, on his hip bone, is a seagull that is also found on many of the men in his family. The Jesus tattoo, inked on the singer at the tender age of 17, shows his devotion to God; and, of course, the tattoo of the face of ex-girlfriend and fellow teen sensation Selena Gomez is a nod to the couple’s much-publicized romance. The couple, who started dating in 2010, were victims of bad timing, the pop star has said. Subsequently, he tried to cover her face with shading, but people still know that it’s a tattoo of her, something that documents the lessons he has learned along his journey into fame. While clearly Bieber has hit some road bumps, he seems ready to keep evolving as a musical star. And his fans, both old and new, seem more than happy to be “Beliebers.”

BYE–BYE BORING BRUNCH. LEAVE IT TO NYC CHEFS TO RECREATE THE MOST LEISURELY OF MEALS. BY WALECIA KONRAD THESE DAYS, BRUNCH IN NEW YORK is a culinary bright spot, including everything from reinvented Benedicts and hashes to unique cocktails foamy with egg whites and seasonal garnishes. Thanks to creative chefs committed to fresh, local and multicultural ingredients, this midday, often-on-a-weekend meal runs the gamut of farm-to-table, seasonal, small plates, Italian and more. Whatever your tastes, these seven restaurants—all with brunch-dedicated chefs and owners—have tweaked the meal that for many is their favorite of the week. What’s more, all these spots take reservations for brunch—a nice way to keep your trip on schedule.

Scrapple and More

Chef Adriana Maldonado has infused her Austin, Texas, roots in the brunch menu at Playa Betty’s (320 Amsterdam Ave, 212.712.0777). The spacious and popular Upper West Side spot offers breakfast Dharma bowls with a mix of fresh grains, eggs, protein, beans and vegetables of your choosing. Another bright spot: brandade (a salt-cod dish) baked in a crispy bacon-lined cup topped with baked egg and buttermilk sauce. Homemade scrapple and a variety of giant egg sandwiches are other great choices. Cocktails are decidedly Tex-Mex. Micheladas and mescal Bloody Marys flow freely here.

on juice, try the frozen Paloma, a grapefruit tequila slushy with sea salt and pink peppercorn on the glass rim. Says Wilson, “Brunch used to be a way to revive after a hard night out. Now chefs are working with lighter ingredients for guests to enjoy. But the Bloody Mary, thankfully, has endured.”

Italian Pancakes & Great Bellinis

Step into the special atrium dining room in the historic Rockefeller town houses, home to Il Gattopardo (13-15 W. 54th St., 212.246.0412) and you’ll find yourself in one of the most elegant yet inviting spots Gotham has to offer. It’s the perfect setting to relax and fortify before embracing some Midtown sightseeing. Salerno, Italy-born Executive Chef Vito Gnazzo offers an Italian take on classic brunch items, including the frittatina del giorno and ricotta pancakes. Or try the spaghetti alla carbonara, with egg yolk, pecorino cheese guanciale and black pepper, and a wine from Il Gattopardo’s extensive list. Particularly popular at brunch is the sparkling Billecart-Salmon Brut Réserve NV served by the glass or bottle. Bloody Marys, Mimosas and what some call New York’s best Bellinis are also on hand.

A Classic Hotel Experience

Downmarket hotel brunches, with their all-you-can-eat steam tables are most assuredly a thing of the past. Case in point: The Carlyle Restaurant (35 E. 76th St.,

212.744.1600) in the famed Carlyle Hotel. The sophisticated country house dining room, impeccable service and a creative menu make it a treat for both travelers and locals. The menu is prix fix, including appetizer, entrée and dessert. Known for its seafood, don’t miss the Carlyle lobster bisque to start, or perhaps the chef-selected oyster platter. Entrées include braised short ribs hash with poached eggs, steak frites and wild striped bass. Desserts are varied, from gluten-free to totally indulgent. All goes nicely with the included glass of prosecco.

Cozy Pub

Nothing is more convivial for brunch (or any meal) than an intimate pub setting, and The East Pole (133 E. 65th St., 212.249.2222) takes that premise and runs with it. The cozy, two-story, map-and-nautical-themed restaurant, tucked away in an historic brownstone on Manhattan’s Upper East Side, is bright and welcoming inside. The pub-inspired menus are a cut above the usual pub fare:

Start with the Scotch egg, a British favorite. You’ll soon know why East Pole is known for it when you dig into this hard-boiled egg nestled in a round of lightly breaded and flash-fried ground pork. (Great with a pale ale or cider from East Pole’s list of small-batch artisanal offerings.) Along with plenty of egg dishes, entrées include the Maine lobster sandwich and cheeseburger with duck-fat fries. Sangria, spicy Bloody Marys, blood-orange Mimosas and Bellinis round out the alcoholic drink choices. Fresh juice concoctions, such as kale, cucumber, apple, celery and cayenne, and the coconut water and berry smoothie are delicious alternatives.

Mediterranean Feast

Housed in the former Knitting Factory music venue, Estella (47 E. Houston St., 212.219.7693) is the creation of award-winning Uruguayan chef Ignacio Mattos and restaurateur Thomas Carter. Mattos takes his Mediterranean-inspired small plates into the brunch realm with

creations such as lamb ribs with charmoula and honey, or eggs with beans, harissa and mojama. On a recent Sunday visit, the Serrano ham and ricotta dumplings with mushrooms and pecorino sardo were dominating the tables. The hip downtown crowd also loves the cocktails. One example: the Pompelmo Sour made with gin, Amaro Montenegro, grapefruit syrup, lemon and egg whites. Reservations are a must in this one-room, brick-walled cozy spot.

Country Kitchen in SoHo

“The New York City brunch tradition is becoming healthier as well as environmentally and socially responsible,” says restaurateur Matt Levine, owner of Chalk Point Kitchen (527 Broome St., 212.390.0327). This SoHo favorite has a constantly changing menu, but some recent favorites include avocado hash, gluten-free quinoa waffles and spicy kimchi eggs Benedict. Bloody Marys adorned with bacon are a house favorite. An even longer

list of special cocktails, including lots of fizz, froth and juice, are available downstairs at The Handy Liquor Bar (same owners as Chalk Point Kitchen). This can be a plus, as Chalk Point is so popular, you may have to wait a bit for your table even with a reservation.

Brooklyn’s Best Brunch

This popular Brooklyn spot takes brunch to a new level with items such as pecan-pie French toast and fried pork chop and cheddar waffle. Living up to its name, the menu at Buttermilk Channel (524 Court St., Carroll Gardens, 718.852.8490), of course, includes buttermilk pancakes and biscuits. But the restaurant is actually named after the nearby mile-long tidal strait between Brooklyn and Governors Island. Less brunchy but also comforting are the ABC grilled cheese (apples, bacon and cheddar) and the Rancho Gordo bean stew. Unusual cocktails, such as the celery-and peppercorn-infused vodka garnished with a freshly shucked oyster, are sure to be eye–openers. IN NEW YORK | MAY 2016 | INNEWYORK.COM

YES, THIS CITY HAS ENOUGH museums, attractions and shops to fill every moment of your trip, but you’ll also want to leave yourself with enough energy for our spectacular nightlife: a Pulitzer Prize-winning Broadway drama, a symphony performance, a rock or jazz concert. And, if you prefer dining after the evening’s event as opposed to before, then you are in luck: The following NYC eateries are designed with you in mind, offering menus up to midnight or sometimes even later. A word of note: It’s always good to make a reservation, as some places may close earlier than noted, depending on how crowded the house gets.

Upper West Side

Clockwise from bottom left: A tempting charcuterie plate at Bar Boulud; the sleek, white look of Cafeteria, and the restaurant’s mac ‘n’ cheese; a happy bartender at The Library at the Public; diners at Bar Boulud.

There are plenty of world-class venues under the Lincoln Center umbrella—the Metropolitan Opera House, the Vivian Beaumont Theater and David Geffen Hall to name a few—so postshow, there’s no shortage of hungry patrons in search of a good meal. Thankfully, Bar Boulud (1900 Broadway, 212.595.0303), from überchef/restaurateur Daniel Boulud, is right across the street. At this long, cavernlike space with an arched ceiling, you can sit at the counter or at a table (the row of booths is much coveted). The menu features artisanal housemade charcuterie, including traditional pâtés and terrines (a nod to Lyon-born Boulud’s rustic culinary roots), but you’ll also find brasserie classics like steak frites and coq au vin. The well-stocked wine cellar has a large selection of bottles from the Rhône and Burgundy regions. Serves until midnight on weekends. Another right-across-from-Lincoln-Center restaurant that is a magnet for late-night diners is the Upper West Side branch of P.J. Clarke’s (44 W. 63rd St., 212.957.9700). The original saloon on Third Avenue and E. 55th Street, where Sinatra and Jackie O once tippled, dates back to 1884. Like its East Side sibling, this location, too, has dark wood paneling, red-andwhite checkered tablecloths and black-and-white historical photos lining the walls. The menu includes oysters, shepherd’s pie, steaks and, of course, burgers (the “Cadillac” with smoked bacon and American cheese was given its name by Nat “King” Cole). The large bar area can get quite lively, so that person you strike up a conversation with just might work at Lincoln Center— P.J.’s is a known hangout for performers, musicians and stagehands. Serves until 2 am on weekends. The Beacon Theatre, a 1929 landmarked Art Deco vaudeville-turned-music venue, is a New York City, and more specifically, an Upper West Side treasure. Everyone from Willie Nelson to One Direction has performed here (Jerry Seinfeld and Cyndi Lauper are on the May schedule). A great spot to grab a postconcert bite is French Roast (2340 Broadway, 212.799.1533), a nearby bistro, complete with a pressed-tin ceiling and tiled floors, that’s long been feeding famished folks until the wee hours (there’s another branch down in the Village). IN NEW YORK | MAY 2016 | INNEWYORK.COM

0516_IN_F_Late Show.indd 23

4/6/16 1:31:44 PM

Order a flight of beer (or wine or whiskey) along with comfort foods like French onion soup, Gruyère-topped burgers and a melt-in-your-mouth croque monsieur. Or go with the breakfast-y brioche French toast topped with mixed fruit. Serves until 4 am on weekends.

THE THEATER DISTRICT

Dining on Restaurant Row (W. 46th Street between Eighth and Ninth avenues) is a pre- and post-Broadway show ritual. You never know who might make an appearance. (Was that Nathan Lane? Hugh Jackman? Audra McDonald? Yes!) And while the famed culinary strip is fun for celebrity-spotting, it’s also refreshing to know that you can actually eat quite well here, especially at places like Becco (355 W. 46th St., 212.397.7597), a Restaurant Row mainstay from cookbook author and TV personality Lidia Bastianich and her restaurateur son, Joe. Amid beamed ceilings, brick accents and hanging copper pots, evoking a farmhousestyle vibe, diners can indulge in homemade pastas, like mushroom ravioli and penne alla vodka, and its signature dish of osso buco, served with farro and butternut squash. Serves until midnight on weekends. Elsewhere in the area, be prepared for a good meal and a good time (especially once the margaritas start to kick in) at Toloache (251 W. 50th St., 212.581.1818), an upscale Mexican restaurant, very close to the Gershwin Theatre (“Wicked”) and the Circle in the Square Theatre (“Fun Home”). The warm interiors in the twostory spot feature hand-painted ceramic wall tiles, brick accents and hanging silver lanterns. Start out with some guac (naturally), then move on to tacos (perhaps spicy lobster or beef short ribs), followed by miso-tequilaglazed black cod with truffle butter or a dry-aged rib eye steak with a chimichurri salsa. Serves until midnight on weekends.

DOWNTOWN

If you catch a show at The Public Theater at Astor Place—the Broadway smash “Hamilton” got its start here and, beginning May 10, the musical “The Total Bent” premieres—you’ll be pleased to know that you don’t even need to leave the premises to eat. On the mezzanine level of the theater, you will find The Library at The Public (425 Lafayette St., 212.539.8777), which features leather chairs and book-lined shelves (in homage to the building’s original incarnation as the Astor Library). Nosh on calamari with a chipotle aioli, shrimp cocktail and braised short ribs and try one of the handcrafted cocktails, such as the whiskey-based Final Derby. Serves until 1 am on weekends. If you’re looking for something a bit more exotic, the timeless French-Vietnamese fusion restaurant Indochine (430 Lafayette St., 212.505.5111), directly across from The Public Theater, has been a downtown fixture from the moment it opened its doors back in 1984

(Andy Warhol, Madonna and Calvin Klein were regulars). Even today, it still has some of the city’s best people-watching. The interiors are reminiscent of a French colonial mansion: ceiling fans, (faux) palm trees, wicker furniture, leather banquettes. Start out with a cocktail like the Lychee Saketini, followed by perhaps an appetizer of crispy shrimp with a pimento-plum sauce and an entrée of sole with coconut milk steamed in a banana leaf. Save room for dessert—the Asian pear wontons are served in a delightful little bamboo basket. Serves until midnight on weekends. Buddakan (75 Ninth Ave., 212.989.6699) is just a 10-minute walk from the Joyce Theater, a 472-seat showcase for contemporary dance housed in a former 1941 movie house—the retro marquee is still out front. The sprawling clublike Asian restaurant from Philly restaurant mogul Stephen Starr has a Christian Liaigredesigned space, featuring a soaring central dining hall outfitted with four enormous chandeliers, as well as dimly lit dining nooks dubbed the Buddha Room and the Golden Library. The large menu offers dim sum (lobster egg rolls, pork pot stickers), appetizers like pork buns and tea-smoked spareribs, rice (how can you go wrong with Peking duck fried rice?) and entrées of glazed Alaskan black cod and wok-tossed black pepper beef. Serves until 1 am on weekends. Another nearby spot is Cafeteria (119 Seventh Ave., 212.414.1717), a casual-cool restaurant with modish black-and-white interiors in Chelsea. The overnight menu has everything to make 2:30 am special: mac ’n’ cheese spring rolls, cornmeal calamari, meatballs with rustic bread (and those are just the appetizers). Follow up with meat loaf and garlic mashed potatoes or a buttermilk biscuit egg sandwich—or better yet, go for a mix of both dinner and breakfast with Cafeteria’s famous fried chicken and waffles, and you’ll be well on your way to a very happy food coma. Open 24/7.

Kate Hooker is a lawyer and writer who fled the East Village for Brooklyn a few years ago in search of outdoor space and fewer Starbucks.

The working-class neighborhood of Corona, Queens, is jam-packed with tasty eats and attractions. Corona borders Flushing Meadows Park, the site of both the 1939 and 1964 World’s Fairs, and is still home to the New York State Pavilion and Unisphere that you might recognize from the movie “Men in Black.” The park also houses the Queens Museum, the Queens Zoo, the New York Hall of Science, Citi Field and the USTA Billie Jean King National Tennis Center: It’s a great place to kick off your Corona adventure.

EAT Corona is a patchwork of ethnicity, reflected through its first-class eateries. For one of the best Cubano sandwiches you can find north of Miami, check out Rincon Criollo (40-09 Junction Blvd., rincon-criollo.com). Nearby Colombian joint Empanadas Café (56-27 Van Doren St., empanadascafe.com) serves delicious empanadas in about 30 flavor varieties. Tortilleria Nixta-

sure you check the Mets home schedule, because a ball game at Citi Field (123-01 Roosevelt Ave., newyork.mets .mlb.com) is an experience you won’t want to miss. Mets fans, myself included, are used to playing second fiddle in this town, but the tide has turned lately (e.g., last season’s World Series run), and nowadays we can even claim the superior baseball stadium, which has its very own Shake Shack. Not into sports? No problem. Head to the New York Hall of Science (47-01 111th St., nysci.org) to take part in its hundreds of interactive exhibits to delight kids and adults alike. Finally, don’t leave without a visit to the Queens Museum (New York City Building, Flushing Meadows Corona Park, queensmuseum.org). On display, you will find a collection of Tiffany lamps (the Tiffany glass studios were located in Corona until they shuttered in the 1930s), as well as the Panorama, a scale model of New York City featuring

all 895,000 buildings constructed before 1992, that took more than 100 people three years to build. Loads of famous musicians called Corona home at some point, from Dizzy Gillespie to Madonna. The great Louis Armstrong lived here until his death in 1971. Fans of Satchmo can pay homage to the man and also learn a great deal about jazz at his former residence, the Louis Armstrong House Museum (3456 107th St., louisarmstronghouse.org).

Mexican fare at Tortilleria Nixtamal

mal (104-05 47th Ave., tortillera nixtamal.com) is a great Mexican spot that makes its own corn tortillas daily in-house, and Leo’s Latticini (46-02 104th St.), which the locals refer to as “Mama’s,” is the place to go for Italian subs. A stop at the family-run Lemon Ice King of Corona (52-02 108th St., thelemonicekingofcorona.com) is a must—they’ve been making some three dozen flavors of Italian ice for over 60 years. The adjacent William F. Moore Park (“Spaghetti Park,“ to the locals) is the perfect place to enjoy your icy treat while taking in a lateafternoon boccie game.
