THEATER NEWS by Francis Lewis

Bway Bits

• Many Broadway shows have canceled Election Night (Nov. 8) performances, so audiences can vote and watch as results come in. Talk about live theater.

Family Matters

“There’s a kind of one-dimensionality to some of the writing for women today,” says actress Zoe Kazan, “so I feel like it’s an aberration to find a part [like this] that is so well-rounded and challenging and requires so much of me.” Kazan is talking about the part of Rose, the Gen X daughter of two self-centered baby boomers in Mike Bartlett’s funny, perceptive and moving “Love, Love, Love,” which travels from the late 1960s to the 2010s. The role is a gift to the actress, who first appears in the second act as a serious-minded, violin-playing 16-year-old English schoolgirl (above, right, with Ben Rosenfield, who plays her brother, Jamie); in the third and final act, set in 2011, Rose (above, left, Kazan again with Ben Rosenfield) is in her late 30s: unmarried, disaffected with her life choices and neglected by her successful but always self-absorbed parents. Kazan sums up the play as “about intergenerational conflict and change, and what the boomer generation did to Gen Xers. Bartlett’s writing is so good.” | “Love, Love, Love,” Laura Pels Theatre, 111 W. 46th St., 212.719.1300

Sound Effects

There is nothing on Broadway quite like “The Encounter,” conceived, written, directed and performed by Simon McBurney (left). Alone onstage, McBurney enacts National Geographic photographer Loren McIntyre’s harrowing journey into the Amazon rain forest. Central to the experience are the wired headphones that every audience member wears throughout the intermissionless show. Using prerecorded and live binaural technology (3-D audio), sound designer Gareth Fry has created an immersive mix of loops, voice-overs and music. For authenticity’s sake, he traveled with McBurney to Brazil, where he recorded indigenous sounds. | “The Encounter,” John Golden Theatre, 252 W. 45th St., 212.239.6200

• “Broadway Under the Stars”— free Monday concerts and performances Nov. 14-Dec. 12 at 5 pm—features several of the Great White Way’s best, including “Paramour” (Nov. 14) and “Kinky Boots” (Nov. 21). | The Shops at Columbus Circle, 10 Columbus Circle, the shops atcolumbuscircle.com • Standing ovations, please, for these long-running hits: “Chicago” (opened Nov. 14, 1996), “The Lion King” (opened Nov. 13, 1997) and “Jersey Boys” (opened Nov. 6, 2005).

THE AFTER-DARK SCENE by Joni Sweet

Fall for These Views

New Yorkers trade in summer nights on rooftop bars for cozy fireplace pubs come chilly weather—except when it comes to Upstairs at the Kimberly. The penthouse lounge 30 stories atop the Kimberly Hotel is one of a mere handful of rooftops that stay open all year long. With a bronze and black granite bar, ivy-covered walls and intimate tables, Upstairs at the Kimberly is an elegant spot to enjoy cocktails and small plates (yellowfin tuna tartare, Kobe beef sliders and sinfully delicious truffled mac ‘n’ cheese). In the mood for romance? Order a couple glasses of The Chrysler cocktail (champagne with cognac, fresh citrus and a drizzle of honey) and gaze at the iconic building the drink is named after from the lounge. | Upstairs at the Kimberly, 145 E. 50th St., 212.888.1220

Midnight Snack

Boilermaker’s apple pie pancakes

Boilermaker treats night owls to a special breakfast menu starting at midnight daily. The East Village bar churns out half a dozen pancake options, like s’mores, red velvet and buttermilk, along with egg sandwiches, a bacon-infused Old Fashioned and mimosas until 2 am Sunday-Wednesday, 4 am Thursday-Saturday. | Boilermaker, 13 First Ave., 212.995.5400 Spice up your night at The Drunken Munkey on the Upper East Side. The Colonial India-inspired bar and restaurant offers flavorful cuisine, such as chicken curry, pork vindaloo and paneer tikka masala, until 2 am Sunday-Thursday, 3 am Friday-Saturday. Don’t forget to try the India-made spirits, as well! | The Drunken Munkey, 338 E. 92nd St., 646.998.4600

Local Pride

Finding a spot to recharge is essential after a day of shopping at Chelsea Market. Fortunately, you only need to cross the street to find great grub and creative drinks at the recently opened Sons & Daughters. The bustling bar has devoted some serious attention to its cocktail menu, crafting innovative options like the Girl Scout (above, left), a drinkable version of the beloved Thin Mint cookie, and the Highline Park Sour (above, right), with bourbon, sherry, lemon, Grand Marnier, ginger and Campari. Founded by two New York natives, it’s an ideal spot to experience local hospitality. | Sons & Daughters, 85 10th Ave., 646.490.6013

Come for the frozen Dark & Stormy slushies, stay for the jerk chicken at Miss Lily’s 7A. The trendy Jamaican diner offers its late-night menu, complete with sweet plantains, fish tacos and jerk fries, 11 pm-2 am Thursday-Saturday. | Miss Lily’s 7A, 109 Ave. A, 212.812.1482 Employees Only, a West Village cocktail bar that is expanding worldwide, treats insomniacs to tempting offerings like elk loin, rainbow trout, tagliatelle with veggies and roasted half chicken every night from midnight to 3:30 am. | Employees Only, 510 Hudson St., 212.242.3021

FASCINATING ART DISPLAYS by Terry Trucco

Beyond Selfies Photography once meant printed pictures in frames. But in a world of digital images, real-time data streams and video, pictures are just the start. These exhibitions offer hints at what photography now encompasses. 3 (1) As a young photographer in the South, Marilyn Minter (b. 1948) was captivated by what she calls “the pathology of glamour.” “Marilyn Minter: Pretty/Dirty” reveals the results: four decades of gleefully subversive photos, videos and paintings that plumb the complicated emotions swirling around beauty and the female body. From student photographs of her drug-addled mother, admired by the esteemed Diane Arbus, to works that examine fashion’s commercialization of sex and the body, Minter delights in complex ways of seeing. Consider her towering “Black Orchid” (2012). Brooklyn Museum, 200 Eastern Parkway, Brooklyn, 718.638.5000, Nov. 4 thru April 2, 2017 (2) Decades before today’s mania for documentation, Memphis-born photographer William Eggleston (b. 1939) captured daily life as he saw it, enraging photography purists with his pioneering use of color and fascination with subjects like gas stations, highways and diners. While “The Democratic Forest,” his ground-shifting 1989 book of such work, enjoyed

16

a cult following, the world has caught up with Eggleston’s aesthetic of the everyday. In “William Eggleston: Selected Works from The Democratic Forest,” images like “Untitled from The Democratic Forest,’’ (c. 1983-86) show why. David Zwirner, 537 W. 20th St., 212.517.8677, thru Dec. 17 (3, details) Commissioned to create a piece that explored how she viewed her birth land in terms of geography and territory, Chinese artist Kan Xuan (b. 1972) spent five months traveling to 110 ancient Chinese cities, snapping photos on her mobile phone. The outcome: “Ku- Lüè Er” features her color-manipulated images looping rhythmically on 11 flatscreen monitors along with sound and sculpture. In “Tales of Our Time,” it joins art probing the same themes by other contemporary artists born in China, Hong Kong and Taiwan. Guggenheim Museum, 1071 Fifth Ave., 212.423.3500, Nov. 4 thru March 10, 2017

MARCEL PROUST famously dipped a little pastry in an aromatic cup of hot tea and felt a rush of memory. That super-sensory moment, when you remember childhood places and loved ones, powered his famous novel, “In Search of Lost Time.” These eight chefs—all with different stories to tell—tap into family lore, honoring the sources of their inspiration and ambition.

“Nashville hot chicken” (a type of fried chicken that is a specialty of the city) stars at Carla Hall’s Southern Kitchen (115 Columbia St., Red Hook, Brooklyn, 718.855.4668), where the vivacious host of ABC-TV’s Emmy-winning “The Chew” pays homage to Tennessee soul food. Accountant-turned-runway-modelturned-chef, Hall remembers begging for her grandmother Freddie Mae’s cornbread at Sunday suppers. Ironically, though, Nashville native Hall had her fried chicken epiphany in New York City. As a 10-yearold, she tasted an “amazing, juicy, tender bird” at the Upper East Side home of her uncle, then a cast member of Broadway’s “Bubbling Brown Sugar.” And now that bird, the only meat protein she serves at her restaurant, rules. With fruit powders tempering the cayenne, it comes by the piece, at six levels from “hoot & honey” to “boomshakalaka.” Recipes of grandmothers from both her mother’s and father’s side inspire comfort sides like collards and candied yams, biscuits and sweet potato rolls. Cool-off desserts include Nana pudding, whoopee pie and musthave buttermilk soft serve. Expect family photos on the wall and a soundtrack of rhythm and blues, blues or country, a short “fast” menu and seating for only 21 at tables and 16 by the perch rails. Though Hall may lean at times from soul food tradition (thanks to French culinary training and her ban on animal fats), she still calls this venture “a love letter to my roots.”

Floyd Cardoz

The “Top Chef Master,” who departed New York (and the famed Tabla that had been owned by Danny Meyer) for Mumbai, returns with Paowalla (195 Spring St., 212.235.1098), a casual 70-seater that features a woodfired oven, two tandoors, a bar and no tablecloths. Set on a SoHo corner, Paowalla (say pah-ow-wall-ah) honors Cardoz’s Goan heritage (the state in southwest India where he can trace his ancestry) and his mixed identity—“Pao” is Portuguese for basic bread and “walla” is Hindi for street vendor. Cardoz has “rewritten the rules,” allowing Portugal, France and England to influence his reinvented small plates. But family factors in with a variety of dishes: mother Boodie’s pilaf and wada pao (potato dumpling), a mother-in-law’s updated mango chutney and a fourgeneration recipe for bibinca, Goa layer cake with portinfused plums.

24

He gladly identifies other dishes he remembers from childhood: calamari stuffed with chilies; pork ribs vindaloo with chili, garlic and vinegar; and North Atlantic sea bream, served head on and lined with spicy tomatochili sauce. Cardoz’s new book, “Floyd Cardoz: Flavorwalla: Big Flavor. Bold Spices. A New Way to Cook the Foods You Love,” offers over 100 recipes that show, among other things, how a simple shift in spicing can bring the taste of a dish to a whole new level.

Jose Garces

Jose Garces honors his Ecuadoran heritage with his dining empire motto—“Latin inspired hospitality”—and a cookbook titled “The Latin Road Home: Savoring the Foods of Ecuador, Spain, Cuba, Mexico, and Peru,” published in 2012. Winner of a James Beard award and the coveted title of the Food Network’s “Iron Chef,” Garces’ Amada (250 Vesey St., 212.542.8947) is his first New York venture, naming it for his “mamita,”

the grandmother who welcomed him as a child into her kitchen. At 96, she still makes the empanadas of green plantain dough that he duplicates here. Beside the Hudson River in the glam Brookfield Place complex in Lower Manhattan, diners opt for a meal of tapas (some from recipes, says Garces, that are centuries old), entrées to share or four-course tastings. Favorites include charcuterie, flash-fried peppers and the order-ahead suckling pig that’s carved at the table. New World touches mark the lobster and seafood paella with fava beans and the beef short ribs with horseradish. An open kitchen, run by Executive Chef Justin Bogle, is the focal point for a sociable scene amid woven hangings, gleaming wood tables and dramatic downlights. Expect an array of sherries and wines from an all-Spanish list. Also here: a café/wine bar attached to the dining room called (grandmother, again) Amadita.

Joseph Johnson

“JJ” grew up in the Poconos, but as the James Beardnominated chef of Harlem’s popular The Cecil (210 W. 118th St., 212.866.1262), he’s come to symbolize the African-Latin diaspora. He “apprenticed,” after all, in his Puerto Rican grandmother’s kitchen, the air filled with salsa music and exotic spices of the Caribbean. Now, with Culinary Institute of America-cred and world travel (Asia, West Africa), he runs a brasserie with a wok bar and fusion menu. Johnson and his mentor-partner, opera singer Alexander Smalls, both African-Americans, recently revamped dishes on the menu to “expand the conversation beyond soul.” The result: roti pizza with oxtails from Guyana, shrimp over yam flapjacks from Barbados, smoked fish stew from Brazil and plantain kelewele with guava from Ghana. Still, evidence resurfaces of JJ’s family’s Southern cooking—a collard green salad with candied cashews and the rabbit sausage with spicy black-eyed peas that one eats with one’s hands (warm towel provided).

Laurent Tourondel

The French-born chef famed for putting Gallic touches to American food now pays homage to an Italian grandmother. She won his heart long ago with Sunday suppers, and now those “taste memories” resurface at L’Amico (849 Sixth Ave., 212.201.4065). The airy space, overseen by Executive Chef Amy Eubanks, offers charcuterie, housemade pastas and pizza fired in copper-clad, wood-burning ovens. Family recipes factor in authentic dishes like burrata with mintbasil pesto, vongole pizza with clams and garlic ramp butter, branzino with capers and white wine or his grandmother’s veal and pork meatballs “al forno.” Note: Cocktails with housemade infusions and Tourondel’s all-day, light-fare menu happen only steps away at The Vine, a stylish lounge with a ceiling of festooned ropes and a fireplace in a cozy parlor.

Scott Conant

From the top of a glass and chrome staircase, guests descend into even more dazzle at Impero Caffè (132 W. 27th St., 917.409.5171). A soaring pearlescent column and a huge mural of figures made out of moss are part of this dramatic space owned by Conant, chef and judge on the Food Network’s TV show, “Chopped.” The loftlike space with sleek banquettes and wildflowers reflects Conant’s self-defined m.o.— achieving elegance without apparent effort. That notion translates into rustic pasta with artful platings and pairings, like mushrooms and polenta with truffle sugo; pasta al pomodoro, its signature ragu perfumed by basil; cavatelli with braised duck or scallops with chanterelles. Conant, a child of farm families (paternal in Maine, maternal in Benevento, Italy), recalls the pleasure of “eating directly off the land.” He credits the rich sauce that laces some pastas and other dishes to his mother’s soffritto, a flavor base from a “holy trinity” of ingredients (onions, carrots and celery). Her sausage, which Conant would “want for my last meal,” can be found in the torchio with porcini and sausage ragu.

Masahura Morimoto

Attention must be paid when an “Iron Chef” star (in Japan and America) turns the spotlight on ramen, especially the shoyu style (made with soy sauce) of his Hiroshima childhood. At Momosan Ramen & Sake (342 Lexington Ave., 646.201.5529), Morimoto’s Midtown izakaya (a Japanese term for a casual, after-work spot), he brings invention and global influences (like Malaysian coconut curry) to artful bowls of noodles like his signature aged and light “temomi” noodles. Diners opt for the counter or communal tables in this airy space with white brick walls and shelves of sakes, six of them the chef’s own brand.

As chef-owner of the misleadingly named Delicatessen (54 Prince St., 212.226.0211), Culinary Institute of America grad Ferraro serves food that reflects his Southern Italian parentage and cosmopolitan travels. For all his media attention (cooking shows, a Discovery channel documentary) and kitchen experience, the chef touts specific family dishes like Giorgio’s meatballs, his father’s 50-year-old recipe that the retired restaurateur still stops by on occasion to check for consistency. Yet Delicatessan’s motto— “international comfort food at the crossroads of SoHo and NoLIta”—means that one can also expect Korean chicken wings, tuna tartare with wasabi tobiko, Thai mussels or linguine and clams, a nod to those Mediterranean ancestors.

KEYS to the CITY Local piano bars offer a glimpse into an intimate part of New York’s musical culture—along with plenty of opportunities to hum, dance and (of course) sing along. By Joni Sweet

THERE’S A DEFINITE LINE between a bar that happens to contain a piano and a bona fide piano bar. The former treats the instrument as more of a decorative novelty, occasionally played, but often overlooked. A true piano bar forms its entire identity around the black and white keys, behind which talented musicians play covers of show tunes, jazz favorites, pop music, classic rock and just about every other genre imaginable. The environment is friendly enough for audience members to hum and even sing along, no matter how off-key. But don’t write off these musical joints as a step above karaoke—famous crooners Jimmy Durante, Andrea Bocelli and (of course) Billy Joel kicked off their careers tickling the ivories in piano bars. From West Village mainstays with cult followings to glamorous traditional venues to recently opened nightclubs that have modernized the piano bar concept, New York has a piano bar for every music lover. Piano bar culture in New York is anchored by Marie’s Crisis, a well-loved basement bar, where regulars have gathered ’round a piano

under kitschy Christmas lights since 1972. Show tunes comprise the entirety of the repertoire, and customers are expected to sing along, so brush up on your Gershwin, Rodgers & Hammerstein and Sondheim before heading to this musical underworld in the Village. 59 Grove St., no phone. Bemelmans Bar at The Carlyle hotel on the Upper East Side proves that piano bars can also go upscale. Surrounded by the whimsical murals of Ludwig Bemelmans (creator of the “Madeline” children’s book series), a trio plays jazz as customers sip martinis on leather banquettes. Rather than a rousing sing-along experience, a visit to Bemelmans is more like slipping into the silk of Old New York grandeur with a tone set by sophisticated, piano-driven tunes. 35 E. 76th St., 212.744.1600 Howl at the Moon is the Spotify of piano bars.

pianist-vocalists have seemingly endless musical knowledge, belting out everything from Top 40 tracks and hiphop to oldies and television theme songs—all taken by request and jotted down on slips of paper from the audience. By 11 pm, the Theater District nightclub is packed with adults of all ages reveling in the impressive performances and dancing with abandon when their song request is finally head of the queue. Tip: Tuck a couple of small bills into your request note to bump it up in line. 240 W. 52nd St., 212.399.4695 Looking for a sultry place with soul to take a date? Chez Josephine exudes romance with a Parisian-inspired dining room, featuring royal red curtains, blue tin ceilings and white tablecloths, and a tempting French menu. Fitting for a spot named after the famous jazz and pop singer Josephine Baker, the popular Theater District restaurant and piano bar features live music nightly and at Sunday brunch, sometimes accompanied by vocals and

trumpets. It’s the perfect spot to continue your foray into French entertainment after seeing “Les Liaisons Dangereuses.” 414 W. 42nd St., 212.594.1925 There’s a special responsibility bestowed on venues that house a celebrated musician’s instrument, and it’s one that The Waldorf Astoria takes seriously. Its luxury bar, Peacock Alley, displays the Steinway piano owned by Cole Porter, the songwriter and composer behind “Kiss Me, Kate,” who took up residence at the luxury Midtown hotel. The notes of the piano still float through the hotel as musicians perform soothing jazz and pop music nightly while stylish guests nurse innovative cocktails (like the signature drink The Peacock: house-infused cranberry vodka, apricot brandy and house-made lemon sour). 301 Park Ave., 212.872.1275 Brandy’s Piano Bar brings a boisterous voice to an otherwise quiet Upper East Side street. The sing-alongstyle cabaret sessions at the no-frills lounge invite every-

one—including the waitstaff—to join into roaring renditions of Journey’s “Don’t Stop Believin’,” Bonnie Raitt’s “I Can’t Make You Love Me,” Radiohead’s “Creep,” Cyndi Lauper’s “Time After Time” and everything in between. If you don’t know the lyrics, an enthusiastic yelp after the talented singer hits a high note will do just as well. 235 E. 84th St., 212.744.4949 When you visit the Manhattan Inn, you could settle onto one of the cozy stools flanking the wooden bar. But take my advice: It’s worth venturing a little bit farther to the inviting back room of the Greenpoint, Brooklyn, bar and restaurant, where musicians play jazz and ragtime on a stark white baby grand piano most nights of the week. While this isn’t typically a sing-along spot, the Manhattan Inn hosts piano karaoke on Tuesday nights, where you can play the role of piano man, at least for a song or two. 632 Manhattan Ave., Greenpoint, Brooklyn, 718.383.0885 IN NEW YORK | NOVEMBER 2016 | INNEWYORK.COM

At a recent event, celeb chef Todd English (Todd English Food Hall, p. 51) talked to IN New York about three of his favorite restaurants, along with two parts of town that, he says, must be strolled through. English says, “Well, there are the Katz’s [Delicatessen’s] (p. 51) of the world that have to be experienced. In New York, trying a genuine Jewish deli like Katz’s is a must. It is also important to see what New York represents in the world of elegance, like Daniel (p. 57) or Per Se (p. 59). In terms of neighborhoods that you must check out, don’t miss Little Italy and Chinatown.”
