4 ABOUT TWO YEARS AGO, a good friend of mine, who lives on the Upper West Side, moaned to me, “Why is this area such a restaurant wasteland?“ Well, wasteland no more. Atlas Kitchen (258 W. 109th St., 646.928.0522), a Chinese restaurant helmed by Kaiyuan Li, a First Tier National Chef in China, is creating innovative Hunan dishes like sautéed luffa (Chinese okra) with short-neck clams and beef flank in dry wok. A mural of mountains in the main dining room, and soothing colors of blue and green create a peaceful ambience for the fine Asian fare.

But, when nothing but a simple steak will do, head to Greenwich Village for Greenwich Steakhouse (62 Greenwich Ave., 212.553.5000), where, on a recent winter night, a superb, dry-aged porterhouse with creamed spinach was just the ticket before a Broadway show. Speaking of Broadway, Russian Samovar (256 W. 52nd St., 212.757.0168) has all the trappings of a Theater District hideaway. Dim lighting, a classically trained pianist playing piano, 26 flavored vodkas to choose from and, of course, hearty Russian staples like beef stroganoff and chicken Kiev. Don’t skip the samovar tea, served with pitted cherries and lemon, a real treat and perfect meal finisher.

Winter’s in full blast, but the temperature’s on the rise at “Pretty Woman: The Musical,” where the onstage chemistry between co-stars Andy Karl and Samantha Barks (left) is red-hot. Theirs is no mere Valentine’s Day fling, but an eightperformance-a-week lovefest. Karl plays a hard-nosed businessman who hires Barks’ character, a Hollywood streetwalker with a heart of gold, as an escort. One thing leads to another, and, in time-honored fairytale tradition, they fall head over heels, finding redemption in each other. But do they live happily ever after? The title of the show’s final song says it all: “Together Forever.” Speaking of enduring relationships, Karl has been married since January 2001 to singer/actress Orfeh, who just happens to be in ”Pretty Woman: The Musical,” too.

For 5-foot-10-inch Barber, wearing 6-inch heels in the musical “Kinky Boots” (above), thru March 3, is empowering. “You know me, I’m short,” he recently told his former teammate Michael Strahan on ABC News’ “Good Morning America.” “In the locker room, I was always the shortest guy.

Showtime for Kids
Kids’ Night on Broadway (kidsnighton broadway.com)—when children 18 and under can see a Broadway show for free when accompanied by an adult paying full price for his/her ticket—is Feb. 26. It’s a steal of a deal, but that doesn’t mean junior theatergoers aren’t welcome to the Great White Way at other times. Not when there are so many shows with kidappeal currently on the boards, like Disney’s “The Lion King,” “Aladdin” and “Frozen.” Potterheads can apparate at “Harry Potter and the Cursed Child.” “King Kong” has visual spectacle to spare. “Wicked,” too. And check out the boys to the right: They’re ready for Instagram after a night at the opera— “The Phantom of the Opera,” that is.

S W E N G BREAKIN
CRANSTON ON BROADWAY “Breaking Bad” star Bryan Cranston gets Broadway audiences on their feet and shouting. By David Cote “I like playing big, troubled, dysfunctional men,” Bryan Cranston says, summarizing, as well as anyone could, the secret of his success. With his everyman looks and allAmerican aura of decency, Cranston can swerve, without warning, into dark and perilous territory. He makes you believe that a mild-mannered high-school chemistry teacher could become a homicidal meth cooker (as he did as Walter White on the hit AMC TV show, “Breaking Bad”) or that a bombastic, mercurial Texan can, with cunning and charisma, pass the nation’s major Civil Rights laws (as LBJ in the television drama and Broadway play, “All the Way”). Complex men who do great or terrible deeds: Not just any actor can work that magic. Cranston’s latest transformation is now on Broadway, where “Network” is running thru April 28. A dazzling, multimedia stage version of the 1976 Paddy Cheyefsky-scripted movie, “Network” tells the story of news anchor Howard Beale (Cranston), who gets fired, cracks up on air and unexpectedly becomes a ratings magnet for raving against the status quo. He exhorts his viewers to stick their heads out the window and scream, “I’m mad as hell, and I’m not going to take it anymore!” Recently, over lunch, the actor talked about Howard Beale and keeping anonymous on the streets of New York. The movie “Network“ came out in 1976. What were you doing at the time?
Traveling across the country with my brother on motorcycle. I saw it and thought, “Oh my God, can you imagine:

Terror Hour?” Vigilantes and terrorists negotiating their own TV show! How is the satire still relevant?
When Paddy Chayefsky was asked why he wrote it, he said that what we really should be afraid of is absolute beliefs. Once you say, “I dogmatically believe in this,” it’ll shake your world, because the world isn’t like that. Being dogmatic doesn’t make you languid or facile.
ing to be wrong, but the only way to find out if you’re right is if you’re willing to be wrong. So he said, “Come in and take it slowly, slowly, slowly,” and I did. We tried it several times that way, and then almost like a Howard epiphany I went, “Oh, oh, I got it.” Howard gets this epiphany, then it’s fading from his mind as he rushes to the TV studio to tell everyone. The big message from God, or wherever, has just evaporated from his mind.
I heard you got your first tattoo because of the show?
Yeah, the show logo. [Shows the inside of his right-hand ring finger] “Br Ba.” I got it almost six years ago. When we finished the last day of production in April. What about classic drama?
Well, Lear is probably what I would have my eye on at some point. I’m old enough, and yet, I like to try and create something

What is Howard Beale’s belief system?
You do animated work: “Isle of Dogs,”
It’s such a beautifully sad, compelling journey for Howard. It starts where he’s depressed. He’s past his prime. Probably drinks too much. So you see in the beginning where he delivers the news dispassionately. The man is calloused over and the only thing that would hit him is an epiphany. So I have to play that he has an enlightenment. It’s up to the audience to decide whether or not he’s gone mad, or maybe something has occurred to him.

I have fun doing that. It’s a different technique, but I don’t feel as comfortable doing the voice work as I imagined in my head. That’s why I continue to do it, because I don’t think I’m very good at it.

quel? Is he even truly dead?
Ivo is an insightful, sensory director. He’s not willing to pull a performance out of anyone. So the actor has to come in prepared. Ivo demands that every actor memorize their lines for the first day of rehearsal. For the “mad as hell” scene, he said, “Take your time.” He’s always will-
He’s dead as far as I know. But because it’s a prequel, if [“Breaking Bad” creator] Vince Gilligan said, “Bryan, I’d like you to be on ‘Better Call Saul,” I’d say, ‘Of course.’” Because I know Vince is proud and diligent in protecting his characters. It wouldn’t be something for stunt effect.
Also so you won’t be mobbed by fans.
I don’t look for attention. I always wear a hat. I can walk in Manhattan with my friend and security guy at the theater, Mikey, and not be noticed because he’ll say, “OK, start looking for nickels,” and I’ll keep my head down. It’s an interesting thing, that attention. It’s not something you anticipate: It would be foolish for any school to teach how to deal with fame. How to deal with being famous. Sounds like a comedy sketch.

Adventures in Retail Where to ‘experience’ shopping in New York City. By Georgia Kral SHOPPING IS EVOLVING: Amazon sells everything, Instagram has morphed into a shopping platform, and brick-and-mortar retail stores are responding to the competition by offering their customers more. A standard retail experience just doesn’t cut it. Today’s stores need more than just products. Customers now demand an experience with a brand, something visceral that makes them feel connected to whatever they are shopping for. And in New York City, brands are meeting the demand. And while this trend certainly creates a more pleasurable experience for shoppers, it’s also in the best interest of the retailer. More to do in the store means more time spent in the store, which translates to more sales.
Here are our picks for a heightened shopping experiences in the Big Apple.
GLOSSIER 123 Lafayette St., glossier.com This direct-to-consumer makeup and skincare brand has been called a “disrupter” in the industry because it markets itself using social media and sells just a handful of highly curated products. Created for the millennial set, the brand was online—only save for a few pop-up shops—but that’s no longer the case. This past November, the cult brand opened its first permanent location called the Flagship. IN NEW YORK | FEBRUARY 2019 | INNEWYORK.COM

Here, you won’t find the sensory-assaulting elements often found at Sephora or too-bright beauty counters in department stores. In their place: associates (called “offline editors”) in baby pink jumpsuits, soft lighting and soothing background music. Referred to as a “community space,” Glossier offers different (and clearly Instagram-friendly) rooms to “experience” products: a “wet bar” to try facials, serums and the popular “boy brow” mascara for brows, along with a space with floor-to-ceiling mirrors and life-size versions of boy brow bottles.
GUCCI WOOSTER STREET 63 Wooster St., gucci.com The high-end couture brand is, of course, all about creating an experience for the customer, and the SoHo location does not disappoint. It’s bright, colorful and comfortable. There’s a large screening area in the back of the store, with comfortable seating that resembles an old theater. Wireless headphones are available, so that customers can watch documentaries on art and style. The Gucci Wooster Bookstore, located in the Wooster store but with an entrance on W. Broadway, offers book and cultural events and gives Gucci customers a crossdisciplinary experience. The collection, which is curated by David Strettell, founder of nearby Dashwood Books, focuses on photography. New, used and rare books are for sale and rotate, based on Gucci projects.

134 Prince St., previewny.com A home base for digital-only brands, Preview is devoted to men’s lifestyle and wellness, and sells products to help them achieve those goals. To that end there are high-tech workout clothes and tech-enabled products like water bottles that glow when you haven’t met your daily required H20 input levels. Preview also has a fresh approach to developing a customer base. “We have a workout events series that’s a real workout,” explained co-founder Geoff Harris. “We post it on Instagram. It’s about bringing the community in.” Workouts are hosted in the spacious SoHo store, which also offers Bulletproof coffee bar. A pop-up from the wellness company Be Well provides cryo facials, health coaching and fitness experiences for Preview customers.
10 CORSO COMO 1 Fulton St., 10corsocomo.nyc This chic, modern store is the first from the Milan-based brand in the United States, bringing its stylish approach to fashion, art and food to New York City. Experiential shopping has always been part of the DNA of 10 Corso Como, says Averyl Oates, managing director of the NYC location. “You have to bring something that customers feel was created for them,” Oates says. “For us, it’s about connection and community.

reaching out to tie it all together.” The store sells highend apparel, fragrances and jewelry for men and women, and has an art gallery and a popular café.
ABC CARPET & HOME 888 Broadway, abchome.com ABC Carpet & Home has been serving New Yorkers since 1897. What began with rugs sold out of a pushcart has grown into one of the most well-regarded home furnishing brands in New York City. Today, the brand prides itself on selling products in its massive multifloor space in the Flatiron District that are sustainable and environmentally friendly—and also on offering customers a dining experience in addition to a retail one. Three different dining options are available to shoppers (and nonshoppers): ABC Kitchen, ABC Cocina and ABCV. The first of Jean-Georges Vongerichten’s trio to open was ABC Kitchen in 2010; the restaurant was at the forefront of the local, organic and farm-to-table movement. Next, in 2013, came the chef’s follow-up, ABC Cocina, which has a Mexican and Latin American bent. In 2017, Vongerichten opened the all-vegetarian ABCV, which the New York Times observed is a restaurant with “a missionary message combined with cooking that has a large measure of creativity and surprise.”
DOMENICO VACCA 15 W. 55th St., domenicovacca.com This high-end Italian brand’s two-story location in New York City is located on a quiet block in Midtown that’s just a stone’s throw away from Trump Tower and Tiffany

& Co., and Domenico Vacca fits the neighorhood like a custom glove. High-end stores have always catered to the wealthy customer, offering luxury environs, but Domenico Vacca takes it one step further. There’s a café on the first floor: As soon as you walk inside, you’re met with tables and leather-backed chairs where you find stylish people sipping espresso and munching on baby cakes and panini, while others consider leather loafers in a rainbow of colors. And, after shopping and eating, how about a shave and a haircut? On the second floor, guests find a salon and a barbershop.
ROMAN AND WILLIAMS GUILD 53 Howard St., rwguild.com This boutique design and home-furnishings shop in SoHo is located in a stunning, sun-filled loftlike space. The twostory retail operation opened in 2017 as an extension of the Roman and Williams interior-design practice. Following in the footsteps of ABC, Roman and Williams Guild is also home to the widely hailed, all-day classic French restaurant, La Mercerie. Guests can marvel at expensive couches and chairs, tableware, accessories and more, and then dine at La Mercerie using teacups and plates sold by the store. There is also a flower shop at the Guild. The whole experience is synergistic—and it works. From the store’s design, which includes objets d’art that were carefully selected from shopping expeditions from around the world, to the magnificent buckwheat crepes at La Mercerie, the experience projects beauty and ease—the possibility of perfection. And, in 2019, shouldn’t shopping be aspirational?

SUMPTUOUS TIMEPIECES forged by the world’s leading watchmakers debuted last fall under the lofty dome of Manhattan’s Gotham Hall, where annual luxury watch show WatchTime New York introduced a new season of exquisite designs. Whether you are dazzled by diamonds or sleek simplicity is more your beat, these horological masterpieces epitomize timeless aesthetics powered by cutting-edge technology.
Astounding Artistry
Fiona Krüger launched in 2013 with an arresting line of skull-shaped watches, harking back to medieval memento mori, traditional Mexican iconography and the ancient fundamentals of life and death. As part of her new Chaos Collection, the independent designer presents Entropy I: Purple Pow, a limited-edition skeleton watch with a blast of purple iridescent silicium on a jet-black dial. “I thought [entropy] was a beautiful way of thinking about time itself,” Krüger explains, “always moving towards chaos in a complete contrast with watchmaking, which is all about order and precision.” The unisex timepiece calls upon the creative irreverence of the early-20th-century Dada movement in European art and literature, modern graphic design and a like-minded installation in the Tate collection entitled “Cold Dark Matter: An Exploded View,” 1991, by the esteemed English contemporary artist Cornelia Parker. Swiss watchmaker Jaquet Droz found inspiration in an art form from the Byzantine Empire. The Petite Heure Minute Smalta Clara Tiger watch features the brand’s first foray into plique-à-jour enamel, or smalta clara, as it was referred to in Latin. This delightfully delicate medium dates back 1,500 years, and the technique requires four days of meticulous dexterity to yield a single dial; one false move and the enamel will crack from the kiln’s heat. But the result is a luminous composition akin to a stainedglass window. Comprised of enamel cells in gradients of amber or blue, separated by gold wire cloisons and nestled in a bezel set with 100 diamonds, this limited-edition timepiece conjures a ferocious yet feminine air in honor of the label’s 280th anniversary.
Lasting Luxury
When you want to live a little, Breguet’s Be Crazy wristwatch—with an 18-karat white gold case and over 1,000 diamonds—is an explosive statement piece that takes high jewelry to the next level. An exclusive setting technique allows layered rows of baguette-cut diamonds to sway with the movement of your wrist, and an egg-shaped dial sparkles with the brilliance of 133 more baguette-cut diamonds. Blued steel hour and minute hands add a pop of color to the watch’s epicenter, while a platinum rotor emerges from a sapphire crystal backing. In total, more than 70 carats of diamonds populate this three-dimensional work of art, impeccably constructed to uphold Breguet’s legacy of outstanding horological grandeur.

The Reverso One Duetto Jewelry watch in pink gold similarly recalls the bygone days of Art Deco opulence, when art met craft with remarkable finesse. Simple, refined elegance is at the forefront of this Jaeger–LeCoultre timepiece, complete with a lozenge pattern bejeweled with brilliant-cut diamonds and a reversible dial that fluidly transforms this wristwatch into a decorative, lightweight bracelet. Echoing the clean, geometric design elements that were prominent in the 1920s and 1930s, the Reverso One Duetto Jewelry watch is a classic accessory adapted for the 21st-century woman.
Horological Harmony
Above: Fiona Krüger, Entropy I: Purple Pow Below: Raymond Weil, Freelancer AC/DC Limited Edition
“Let there be rock,” declared AC/DC, and Swiss watchmaker Raymond Weil responded with a timepiece that encapsulates the energy of this powerhouse rock band. The Freelancer AC/DC Limited Edition watch pays tribute to the Australian Rock & Roll Hall of Famers with a robust design boasting studded indexes on each hour, a textured dial that evokes the lightning bolt graphic in the band’s name, and the AC/DC logo at 12 o’clock. The watch is thoughtfully crafted to reveal Raymond Weil’s signature Calibre RW1212 movement, by which an “Alternating Current/Direct Current” balance is visible. The Freelancer AC/DC joins Raymond Weil’s ongoing Music Icons series, which includes tributes to and collaborations with legendary musicians, including David Bowie, Bob Marley, Frank Sinatra and The Beatles. Across the universe, De Bethune’s celestial DB25 Starry Varius references 17th-century master luthier Stradivarius, who likewise handcrafted instruments of the most exceptional quality. A gold pin constellation—enhanced by laser-beam micro milling and personalized according to the precise geographic location and date of your choosing—nods to the stars as the oldest form of timekeeping. This ultra-luxe feature is matched by a titanium case, rose gold hands and a sapphire crystal back to create a handsome timepiece for the most discerning modern gent.
Magnificent Mythology
The Tree of Life by Kerbedanz offers a divine take on an earthly symbol found in folklore around the world. An 18-karat gold tree bears diamond fruits set against an enamel backdrop, enveloped by a thick 18-karat rose gold case packed with your choice of alluring black diamonds or verdant emeralds. The Swiss watchmaker specializes in luxurious designs inspired by mythological figures and cultural customs, and the Tree of Life timepiece aptly honors a sacred universal symbol of immortality and rebirth with virtuosic workmanship. The march of time is relentless, but keeping track of its passage need not be. Deluxe, ingenious and beautiful watches like these pay tribute to venerable traditions, are sound investments in the present and treasurable heirlooms to be handed down to future generations.
