By accident, on my way to a Midtown lunch, I walked into Alfredo 100 (7 E. 54th St., 212.688.1999) and was almost disappointed I was in the wrong place.

The handsome main dining room is decorated with Roman-themed murals by artist Al Hirschfeld. To entice even further, the restaurant recently added a weekend jazz brunch and a $29 prix fixe lunch. One of the hottest kitchens to open this summer was Seamore’s (390 Broome St., 212.730.6005), a beachy seafood spot known for its “reel deel” deal: $21 for a fish, three sides and choice of sauce. Lower Manhattan’s new shopping/dining/ business mecca, Brookfield Place, boasts the city’s newest upscale food hall and marketplace, Le District (225 Liberty St., 212.981.8588), which has a full-service restaurant, Beaubourg.

There’s a new executive chef helming the kitchen at The Regency Bar & Grill (Loews Regency Hotel, 540 Park Ave., 212.339.4050). Brian Kevorkian, who has worked at Eleven Madison Park, has created a more seasonally focused menu at the elegant restaurant.

With a sleek, industrial look and generously portioned offerings of everything from risotto to fried mozzarella with organic vegetables, Obicà (928 Broadway, 212.777.2754) has become one of my new go-tos in the Flatiron District: equally fun for lunch and dinner.

THEATER NEWS by Francis Lewis

“Come and Meet Those Dancing Feet”

How did Randy Skinner, director/choreographer of Dames at Sea, know that Eloise Kropp (below, center, with Lesli Margherita, left, and Mara Davi, right) was the right actress/singer/ dancer to play Ruby in the first Broadway production of the 1968 musical? “My inspiration is Eleanor Powell,” she told him when they met. That’s all old-school Skinner, who reveres MGM, RKO and Warner Brothers movie musicals from the 1930s, had to hear. “The minute Eloise walked into the room and started dancing, I saw a quality about her. She gets it. She really understands this kind of dancing, the period, the style, and she has the technical ability to do what I’m asking.” And what Skinner is asking the six-member cast of Dames, which is set in 1933, to do is dance the gamut from ballroom to jazz to tap. Lots of tap. For more about the fascinating rhythm Randy Skinner brings to Dames at Sea, go to innewyork.com/ editorsblog. | Dames at Sea, Helen Hayes Theatre, 240 W. 44th St., 212.239.6200

The Sheen Shines

You don’t have to be a Catholic to attend an event at The Sheen Center, the Archdiocese of New York’s new arts complex (above, The Sheen’s proscenium theater).

You just have to have catholic taste. For example, Broadway buffs who worship at Stephen Sondheim’s altar won’t want to miss pianist Anthony de Mare’s concert there on Oct. 22. De Mare asked 36 contemporary classical, jazz, pop, film and theater composers to interpret a Sondheim song of their choice for solo piano. The CD, Liaisons: Re-Imagining Sondheim From the Piano, has just been released, while the live performance features select re-imaginings by Wynton Marsalis, Nico Muhly, Steve Reich and others. | The Sheen Center, 18

A Dog’s Life No resting on her laurels for Annaleigh Ashford (left), 2015 Tony Award winner. Her new gig is the lead role in A.R. Gurney’s comedy Sylvia. It’s a part she can definitely sink her canine—pun intended—teeth into because Sylvia is a dog. (Pictured, right, is Alfie, a Maltipoo and the model for the dog played by Ashford.) “As an actress, I am both excited and terrified to explore the physicality of creating a dog in a human’s body,” Ashford admits.

“Sometimes [Sylvia] can’t help it, and she just has to pee on the floor no matter how much she loves her owner.

I get that! Sometimes I really have to pee, too.” For more about Ashford and her own adorable pooch, Gracie—”my child with a fur coat on”—go to innewyork.com/editorsblog. | Sylvia, Cort Theatre, 138 W. 48th St., 212.239.6200

FASCINATING ART DISPLAYS by Terry Trucco

Moving Pieces A favorite of medieval potters, the coarse, malleable clay of Shigaraki, Japan, inspires artists to this day.

Consider Tokyo artist Fujikasa Satoko. Fused from slender coils of clay, Satoko’s swirling ceramic sculptures defy gravity, creating a perfect marriage of motion and stillness in works like “Flowing I” (above, 2014). Painstakingly fashioned with ultrathin walls, the 13 ethereal pieces on view in Form in Motion took more than two years to make. | Joan B Mirviss Ltd, 39 E. 78th St., 212.799.4021, thru Oct. 9

Turning Inside Out

London artist Rachel Whiteread probes the spaces inside and around everyday elements like mattresses, doors and buildings, making lifelike sculptures from resin, rubber and concrete castings that confound our perceptions. Viewed inside out, absence morphs into presence, interior becomes exterior and the familiar is oddly askew as in “Detached III” (below, 2012). Looking Out examines Whiteread’s off-kilter sensibility through early drawings and recent sculptures. | Luhring Augustine Bushwick, 25 Knickerbocker Ave., Brooklyn, 718.386.2746, thru Dec. 20

Towering Hues

Artist Enoc Perez explores the charged significance of what had been called the Freedom Tower, New York’s newest architectural icon, in One World Trade Center.

Applying paint to paper and pressing it onto silver canvases, Perez handcrafts luminous paintings like “One World Trade Center” (above, 2015) in layers. The results distort and collapse, reflecting the Puerto Rico-born artist’s efforts to analyze and confront a building fraught with meaning. | Peter Blum Gallery, 20 W. 57th St., 212.244.6055, thru Nov. 14

Probing Pixar

Ever wonder how the wizards at Pixar cook up iconic animated characters like Woody, Wall-E and Joy? Pixar: The Design of Story, at the Cooper Hewitt museum, offers answers. Besides color scripts, storyboards and a gigantic touch-screen table serving up over 450 Pixar artworks, look for rare hand-drawn sketches, sculptures and paintings like Robert Kondo’s whimsical digital painting, “Remy in the Kitchen” from the film Ratatouille (below, 2007). | Cooper Hewitt, 2 E. 91st St., 212.849.8400, Oct. 8 thru Aug. 7, 2016

THE AFTER-DARK SCENE by Joni Sweet

Sophisticated Circus With three-ring crystal chandeliers, a 300bulb antique circus marquee and vintage memorabilia, Bar Cyrk (a play on “berserk”) draws on dark, sexy cirque, rather than kitschy big top, for its circus-themed cocktail café. Start with fancy concoctions like The Zeppo (spiced bourbon, lemon juice, matcha-infused simple syrup, mint, bitters) before sampling the signature pizza.

If there’s ever a place to indulge in dessert, it’s here—you’ll feel like a kid digging into serious sundaes, platters of mini cheesecake and Bar Cyrk’s creative spin on black and white cookies. With a closing hour past midnight, Bar Cyrk invites guests to linger late and savor their food-and-drink version of “The Greatest Show on Earth.” | Bar Cyrk, 88 Thomas St., 212.321.2975

Drunk on Duck

Broadway Underground Famous disco Studio 54 turned out the lights more than 20 years ago, but its spirit lives on in the basement, where stars of the Great White Way croon at Feinstein’s/ 54 Below. Billing itself as “Broadway’s Supper Club,” the dramatic space, with red walls and purple lighting, offers American cuisine, cocktails and performances nearly every night of the week. Highlights this month include Jason Danieley (Oct. 2-5, 7 p.m.), Lisa Howard (Oct. 8-10, 7 p.m.) and Barb Jungr & John McDaniel Sing The Beatles (Oct. 27-31, 7 p.m.). This venue offers a chance to get cozy with Broadway’s best—stars often stick around for informal meet and greets at the bar after the show. | Feinstein’s/54 Below, 254 W. 54th St., 646.476.3551

Peking duck is the main event at a restaurant disguised as a laundromat on Hudson St., but Decoy also features an upscale cocktail bar. Drinks get creative here, taking inspiration from ducks in both the ingredients and presentation, as seen in Sitting Down for Dinner (duck fat-washed George Dickel whiskey, lemon, egg white, red wine), crafted in a way that a silhouetted duck appears on top. Drinks like Smoke ‘n’ Spice (below; Thai chili-infused Fidencio mezcal, pineapple, Aperol, sriracha bitters, lime) pair with bites like dumplings, pickles and stuffed shishito peppers. | Decoy, 529½ Hudson St., 212.691.9700

THE (HIGH-TECH) ECH) RETAIL SCENE by Joni Sweet

Sounds Like Style Wanted: sleek, solid headphones that offer respite and isolation from this hectic world, especially NYC’s boister boisterous subways and chaotic international airport terminals. Looking for advanced, dynamic sound quality that accentuates every last note of my favorite song.

(Earbuds need not apply.) Bonus points for sophisticated design and durability.

MH40 headphones not only meet the criteria of my wish list, they exceed it. The lambskin ear pads offer insulated, leak-free sound.The heavyduty woven cable prevents knots.

Lightweight neodymium drivers make for pristine audio quality.

MH40 proves there’s something quite literal about the name of the brand behind these beauties, Master & Dynamic. | Apple Store, 401 W.. 14th St., 212.444.3400

3-D Doodles

Digital-Print Duo Moleskine proves that paper is still relevant in the digital age. The brand’s special notebooks connect with the high-tech Livescribe pen, which allows hand-drawn notes to appear on smartphones and tablets.

Bluetooth technology uploads what you scribble on the dotted pages to the Livescribe+ or Evernote apps in real time, creating digital versions.

The system also links notes to audio recorded by the pen. Stop by Moleskine to learn about extra features and capabilities. | Moleskine, 436 W. Broadway, 646.964.4146

If you can dream it, you can doodle it, according to the designers behind the 3Doodler 2.0. The easy-to-use, 3-D printing pen melts colored filaments into a stream of pliable plastic that stays suspended as it cools, allowing amateur designers to create sculptures, like masks and mini motorcycles. The 2.0 version builds upon the original model, adding upgrades such as a slimmer body for more control, two speeds and continuous flow options, a new nozzle for crisper discharge and more efficient power usage. I’m also excited about the new accessories, which include a stand (above) that holds the pen and filaments, portable battery, nozzle set with five shapes and tons of new plastic hues.

From one-of-a-kind tools to baskets and glasses, the options are endless.

OWEN’S TIME

TO BE HANDSOME, talSept. 17 and runs through Nov. ented and possess a British 29, about a married couple who accent is perhaps today’s triare visited by the wife’s friend, is fecta for superstardom. Think hardly easy fare.

BY BRIAN SCOTT LIPTON Benedict Cumberbatch, Dan“I’ve been thinking for years iel Craig or 2015 Oscar winabout doing a play again, and I rener Eddie Redmayne. As for ally feel this is one of Pinter’s best Clive Owen, let’s just say he was ahead of the curve. While works,” says Owen. “Playing the character of the husband, not to the so-called “manner” born—he was actually abanDeeley, is a challenge, but that’s part of the appeal. And I doned by his father when he was 3 years old and had what love Pinter’s use of language; he’s very English, and the has been termed a rough childhood in a working-class emotions are very reserved, and that’s something I know. town—the ruggedly good-looking, 51-year-old actor can I’m also excited about working with director Doug Hodge, play sophisticated characters as well as any London-born who really understands Pinter, and thrilled about starring toff. So, it should come as no surprise that Owen has been alongside Eve Best and Kelly Reilly.”

a sensation on screens big and small—not to mention on the red carpet—for some 15 years.

Audiences and critics alike have taken sharp notice of his work in films such as Closer, Gosford Park and Children of Men; the acclaimed TV movie Hemingway & Gelhorn (which earned him an Emmy Award nomination); and most recently, Cinemax’s medical drama The Knick, in which he received rave reviews for his portrayal of an unconventional turn-of-the-last-century surgeon.

And yet, all these high-profile projects have taken Owen away from his first love: the stage. As he readily admits, even though he played the Artful Dodger in a school production of the musical Oliver at age 13, no one in his hometown of Coventry was really prepared when the teenage Clive made a drastic decision. “I chose to become a professional actor and applied to the Royal Academy of Dramatic Art,” he says. “My parents [he was raised by his mother and stepfather] were even more surprised than I was that I got admitted. And although I do ask myself from time to time what I would have done if I didn’t get in, I didn’t really have a plan B.” Luckily, he didn’t need one. Since graduating, Owen has commanded the London stage in works by everyone from William Shakespeare to Patrick Marber. Yet he has never performed live in America until now. So, why did he decide to make his stateside (and Broadway) debut in the Roundabout Theatre Company’s revival of Harold Pinter’s Old Times at the American Airlines Theatre? The award-winning playwright’s 1971 drama, which started previews

Owen admits he wouldn’t be spending his fall in New York without the support of his wife of 20 years, actress Sarah-Jane Fenton, and his teenage daughters, Hannah and Eve. “When you’re doing a play, unlike a film, you can’t just pop back home. Sarah and the family will come when they can throughout the play’s run. Hannah is actually following in my footsteps, and studying at RADA for a couple of terms. She is very talented, and this will give her the chance to see if acting is what she wants to do.”

For his part, Owen has no regrets about his career choices. “I love when I am inspired by a part,” he notes. “For example, I really had a good time working on The Knick and immersing myself in the world of Dr. John Thackery.

Steven Soderbergh is an unbelievably talented director and writer. It was a full year of preparation, reading and learning all I could, and I loved it.”

Soderbergh was just the latest in a long line of great directors who have hired Owen, including Robert Altman, John Frankenheimer, Mike Nichols and Alfonso Cuarón.

“I used to think that good writing was the most important component of a project, but in film and television especially, directors dictate the decisions, and are the real reason things work out or they don’t.”

Finally, the fact that he’ll be in New York during the run of Old Times is a plus. “I’ve spent a lot of time in New York, and I find it a hugely exciting city. I like staying in different neighborhoods depending on the project. But at heart, I’m a Downtown guy. I have my favorite cafés and restaurants there: When I’m in them, I feel like a local.”

Lyndhurst, Tarrytown, N.Y.

Sprawled on a rugged knoll overlooking the Hudson River, Lyndhurst, (635 S. Broadway, 914.631.4481) is one of the nation’s finest examples of Gothic Revival architecture, with its high vaulted roofs and steep gables. Lyndhurst is also a time capsule. Not only do rooms contain original furnishings and objets d’art but rooms or groups of rooms reveal the tastes and lives of three different owners: former New York City Mayor William Paulding, who first commissioned architect A.J. Davis in 1838; New York businessman George Merritt, who died in 1873, seven years after doubling the building’s size to trumpet his wealth and showcase his linden trees; and the very private railroad magnate Jay Gould,

20

whose family occupied the estate from 1880 until 1961.

In October, daytime tours feel like Martha Stewart meets the Addams Family, befitting a place where two Dark Shadows movies were filmed in the 1970s. Even as eerie tableaux transform each room and guides emphasize Victorian mourning traditions, decorative arts buffs still thrill to details of faux painting throughout the home or A.J. Davis’ singular wheel-back chairs. The upstairs vaulted art gallery, adjoining a guest bedroom, is the most swoon-worthy space, with original works by Jean-Baptiste-Camille Corot and Jean-Léon Gérôme. Oh, to wake to the stunning view of the Hudson River and grounds from the gallery’s huge, arched window! You can marvel at Ferdinand Mangold’s pioneer-

CAFFÈ STORICO Housed in the renovated New-York Historical Society (which may pique your interest, after a visit to these historic estates), Caffè Storico (170 Central Park West, 212.873.3400) is yellow, white and airy; 15-foot-high, floor-to-ceiling shelves display 19th-century China plates while your plates feature hearty Italian fare from Chef Edward Crochet. “Braised lamb and gnocchi are perfect when the weather begins to cool,” he says, singling out dishes like lamb shoulder, harissa and cranberry beans or gnocchi, guinea hen and black truffle.

DELMONICO’S When in town, Jay Gould, John D. Rockefeller and Washington Irving frequented the elegant mahogany-and-cream-colored rooms of Delmonico’s (56 Beaver St., 212.509.1154), America’s first fine-dining restaurant. Order items from the original menu, as popular today as they were in 1837: lobster Newburg, with juicy lumps of lobster swaddled in brandy cream sauce and sprinkled with caviar, or the Delmonico steak, a perfectly charred bloody cut of rib eye topped with a single thick-cut onion ring.

ing landscape design, in which sweeping lawns are accented with specimen trees, such as a massive copper beech, and the curved entrance drive reveals “surprise” views, such as the United States’ first steel-framed conservatory and, in this month, 400 soft-sculpture scarecrows crafted by local artists, schoolchildren and businesses. Nighttime “Jay Gould House of Curiosity Tours” feature a theatrical presentation and a spooky interior visit led by live (or undead) actors.

Kykuit, Sleepy Hollow, N.Y.

Dutch for “lookout,” Kykuit (tours start at Kykuit Visitor Center at Philipsburg Manor, 914.366.6900), pronounced “kigh-cut,” presides 500 feet above sea level on 250 lush

green acres. The six-story Georgian Revival mansion housed four generations of Rockefellers—from Standard Oil magnate and philanthropist John D. to his son Junior to fourtime New York Governor Nelson. Built in 1908 of local limestone and draped in wisteria vines, Kykuit’s non-ostentatious rooms seem modest compared to other Gilded Age estates; it’s the artwork, the gardens and the sight lines that take your breath away. Inside the entrance hallway, your eye immediately alights on a Tang dynasty bodhisattva figure transecting the magnificent view of the Hudson and Palisades cliffs beyond.

Original artwork spans 2000 years—from 100 B.C. Han dynasty pieces to Auguste Rodin sculptures in the garden to IN NEW YORK | OCTOBER 2015 | INNEWYORK.COM

Andy Warhol silk screens of Nelson’s wife, Happy. Nelson amassed a spectacular 20th-century art collection, most of which is on view in the basement gallery, which seems like a secret wing of the Museum of Modern Art. Touchingly, works by Alexander Calder and Pablo Picasso share space with a glass display of old bottles the Rockefeller children dug up on the grounds. Outside, admire the Beaux Arts formal gardens, in which each garden is its own formal room replete with terraces, pools, fountains or an allée of linden trees. Sculptures by modern giants like Louise Nevelson and Isamu Noguchi harmonize surprisingly in the classical spaces. Rumor has it that Nelson would helicopter over the landscape to decide where to position a particular piece. Prefer historic autos to art? The cavernous coach barn holds pristine vehicles—from a 1907 Ford Model S to Nelson’s 1959 Chrysler limo.

The Union Church Of Pocantico Hills, Tarrytown, N.Y. The Rockefellers’ reverence for art finds expression in an unassuming Baptist church. From outside, you’d never know The Union Church of Pocantico Hills (555 Bedford Rd., 914.631.2069) contains stained-glass windows designed by modern masters. Henri Matisse designed the rose window— with forms echoing his cutouts. The window was his last artwork, before he died in 1954. Marc Chagall’s nine windows illlustrate Bible stories with his characteristic floating figures, and super-saturated colors. Extremely knowledgeable docents tell the story behind each window, dedicated to departed Rockefellers and friends—such as the moving ultramarine crucifixion, which honors Nelson’s son Michael, who died, tragically, on an anthropological mission.

ROCK CENTER CAFÉ Before heading to Rockefeller country, breakfast at Rock Center Café (20 W. 50th St., 212.332.7620), nestled in the Art Deco cultural center that “Junior” commissioned. There’s a stunning view of Rockefeller Center Plaza, with its 200 United Nations flags flapping in the breeze. Inside, original Andy Warhol prints foreshadow Nelson Rockefeller’s Kykuit collection. Fuel up before your trip to the Hudson Valley with E.A.T., a popular sandwich of poached organic eggs, avocado and tomato on olive-oilgrilled peasant bread.

DEAR IRVING Continue time traveling at cocktail oasis Dear Irving (55 Irving Pl., no phone), which boasts four period rooms pegged to specific dates. Sip a classic Gibson on a brocade wingback chair in the 1857 room where Washington Irving would be comfy spinning stories. For a fun touch, diners use call buttons to summon waiters to deliver their Whiskey Business cocktail (rye, ancho chile liqueur, cinnamon, lemon, angostura bitters) or inventive bar bites like New York State rabbit rillettes or Bloody Mary jumbo lump crab.

Guided tours of Boscobel conclude in the reconstructed kitchen, where visitors are treated to cookies and cider or lemonade. Using a fireplace like this, the staff cooked food over piles of coals on the stone hearth, which jutted out into the (originally earthen) floor.

Sunnyside, Irvington, N.Y.

“If ever I wish for a retreat, whither I might steal from the world and its distractions … I know of none more prominent than this little valley,” so Washington Irving wrote of the lower Hudson Valley in The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, the story of Ichabod Crane’s encounter with the Headless Horseman that draws thousands to this area around Halloween.

Irving was the first American to make his living with his pen.

After years abroad, he returned in 1835 to the beloved state where he was born, and created Sunnyside (3 W. Sunnyside Lane, 914.591.8763). With stepped gables, Dutch roofs, Tudor chimneys and Moorish tiles, Sunnyside reflects Irving’s romantic vision and extensive travels. Guides in 19th- century garb lead you through simply furnished rooms occupied by Irving and his extended family—including Irving’s office with a daybed behind velvet curtains, an oak desk and his walking stick. On weekends in October, visitors experience “The Legend Behind the Legend,” which features objects related to The Legend of Sleepy Hollow, a shadow puppet performance and a spooky walk through the surroundings.

Philipsburg Manor, Sleepy Hollow, N.Y.

In 1750, Philipsburg Manor (Tours start here at Kykuit Visitor Center, 914.366.6900) was a bustling milling and trading complex and home to 23 enslaved Africans. The manor house dates back some 300 years, and guides in Colonial garb reenvision the life of those who worked the grist mill and con-

BLUE HILL Housed in a landmark “speakeasy,” Blue Hill (75 Washington Pl., 212.539.1776) is farm-to-table sister to Blue Hill at Stone Barns in Pocantico Hills, the Center for Food and Agriculture established by David A. Rockefeller. Executive Chef Dan Barber wrings intense flavors from ingredients—from the raw hakurei turnip to caramelized meat from a Stone Barns goat. The six-course “Farmer’s Feast” in October offers the last of the summer vegetables, first of the fall.

TAVERN ON THE GREEN Reminiscent of many Hudson Valley estates, iconic Tavern on the Green (67 Central Park West, 212.877.8684) has been restored to its original 1871 Victorian Gothic glory, with dark wooden beams and plentiful views of horse-drawn carriages at the entrance. With a spacious courtyard and new beer garden, the Tavern melds with Central Park, a romantic landscaping ideal. Offerings here include shrimp scampi atop classic cacio e pepe spaghetti; service is cheerily attentive.

cocted medicinal tinctures. Any other month it is the only living history museum dedicated to telling the story of slavery in the Colonial north. But this month, Philipsburg Manor becomes “Horseman’s Hollow,” a popular interactive environment that includes Irving’s Headless Horseman. If you dare to be scared, stop reading now and order tickets.

Boscobel, Garrison, N.Y.

Regarded as a prime example of clean, classic Federal-style architecture in the United States, Boscobel (1601 Rte. 9D, 845.265.3638) is the farthest north of these Hudson Valley estates, but well worth the scenic, hourlong train ride. Born in New York, but a British loyalist in London during the Revolution, States Morris Dyckman planned to return to New York in style, but he died in 1806 before his country estate was completed. Boscobel owes its existence to his wife, Elizabeth, who finished her husband’s dream house, and to Lila Acheson Wallace, who funded a restoration and

relocation of the home in 1956. While only a few pieces in the house are original to the Dyckmans—including a small exhibit in the Carriage House gallery—all are authentic and in the New York Federal style—from the white decorative wooden swags on the balcony to the furniture by cabinetmaker Duncan Phyfe. Every room and hallway abounds with craftsmanship, elegance and period artwork.

Outdoors, every vista delights. Situated at the narrowest part of the Hudson River, across from West Point, Boscobel’s 60-acre property features an herb garden, an alley of apple trees and relaxing chairs. There are a one-plus-mile woodland trail and rustic gazebos. Leave time to linger in the 19th-century village of Cold Spring in the Hudson Highlands, chock-a-block with antiques shops and restaurants.

Getting there: Metro-North’s Hudson Line trains out of Grand Central Terminal stop at these towns (followed by a short cab ride), or ask your concierge about car services.

BEAUTY FROM

Beauty has come to mean a lot more than just a pretty face; it’s also a state of mind. Here’s how to get it all.

THE INSIDE OUT

THE SUMMER IS LONG GONE, and fall is under way: It’s time to break out those cardigans—and polish those pores. Toss your old beauty products, rituals, diet plans and fitness routines, and make room for the new. There’s a beauty revolution going on, and it’s come for more than just your body.

Enter: a new state of mind. Holistic health is taking the beauty and wellness world by storm, and it’s waking us up to the many components necessary to create a stronger, healthier, fuller version of ourselves. Now, experts are pairing glowing skin with a calm mind for beauty that, they promise, will radiate from the depths of the soul with poise and grace. Here’s how they are making that happen.

Taryn Toomey doesn’t mess around—she knows where true beauty starts: in a deep, 75-minute mind-body workout called simply the class. (291 Broadway, 4th fl., 212.227.3039; schedule and location subject to change; verify online at theclass withtt.com). At just $30 for a single class (therefore visitor-friendly), you’ll be too busy sweating to think about anything. I walked in, and, in less than five minutes, my worries melted away and my heart rate skyrocketed. Toomey pumped the music, dimmed the lights and guided the group through rigorous interval training that used cardio and strength training to delve into our souls. She pushed us onward by shouting out phrases about leaving the “garbage” in our heads behind and moving forward in life—lifting up more than just our bodies with her words and propelling us to empty our minds. By the halfway mark, I felt like I could own the world.

Anyone who scores an appointment for a facial with the exclusive Georgia Louise (39 W. 68th St., 347.703.2726) is in for a treat. Louise starts off her signature facial with a deep tissue massage and aromatherapy aimed at inviting relaxation as she delves into the magical mix of techniques that has made her a celebrity must, such as working with chakras in the body as a part of the facial therapy. Her success shows that the beauty world is responding well to a multifaceted approach, accessing beauty from internal energies and then using them in topical treatments.

68th St., 646.775.6145), a custom-made workout that keeps off emotional weight as well as physical weight. Mehta focuses first on supporting each individual within the group class, shouting out their names and edging them forward. Throughout the workout, which combines Pilates, yoga, strength-training and stretching, she talks about balance, self-awareness and stresses that life isn’t a competition. A workout like the Nalini Method provides an opportunity to use your vacation to its greatest capacity for a total transformation upon your return home.

At the Y7 Studio (25 W. 23rd St., 4th fl., 646.820.0781), the elements of true beauty and well-being are also at work. A yoga class here uses heat and hip-hop while practicing in darkness—save for a few mock candles—to help unlock the connection between mind and body. At the end of each instructor-led flow, the music goes up, and practitioners flow at their own pace, allowing each person’s inner rhythm to shine through.

Engaging the mind gives us a deeper beauty experience, bringing intention into the transformation of our bodies and allowing our mind to open up and free itself. The salt room at Breathe Easy (1 Park Ave., 212.725.1138) opens the door Taryn Toomey, creator of “The Class” to that transformation. Tiny salt crystals sweep through the room and detoxify the lungs and airways. Think of all the benefits of a weekend on the beach channeled into 30 minutes in one room chiseled out “The skin, as the outer manifestation of our bodies, is of pink Himalayan salt.

signed to fit each individual with the help of specialists in traditional Chinese medicine and expert aromatherapists. Mandarin Oriental restores a sense of balance and harmony between body and spirit through Eastern ritual and aroma. Best of all, the spa isn’t limited to guests of the hotel—so you can book a treatment regardless of where you are staying.

A host of “Energetic Therapies” like Reiki, an ancient ritual that uses touch to restore mental and physical health, and Vibrational Therapy, using tuning forks to “relieve pain, increase mental focus and create a general sense of overall well-being” compose one part of the menu at Exhale Spa (150 Central Park So., 212.561.7400). The spa’s Om Body Therapy ‘Tui Na,’ a massage that channels the flow of Qi, the Chinese word for “life force,” is a mind-body relaxation experience.

With individual barre and yoga classes available with no membership necessary, Exhale promises to shape your muscles, spirit and skin.

Great Jones Spa (29 Great Jones St., 212.505.3185) also integrates the holistic approach into every aspect of its luxurious day spa to achieve a sense of wholeness.

Great Jones offers an impressive range of treatments, from a chakra-light steam room to Reiki energy work, that initiate wellness and beauty from within.

Food powers up the skin and soul from the inside: What could be better than having healthy meals brought straight to your hotel room? If you are staying for a week or more in the city, or on a business trip with a heavy meeting schedule, you might even want to skip dining out in restaurants for a day and order online from Sakara Life (sakaralife.com), a meal service favored by celebrities and models alike. Minimum order is a one-day meal package: Sakara will deliver breakfast, lunch and dinner right to your room. The vegan website offers delectable dishes. For example, “The 1966 Burger,” with purple potatoes and mango, is free of dairy, gluten, pesticides, chemicals, additives, preservatives and fake meats. Sakara’s website also features a host of holistic beauty solutions available to order along with your meal, from “beauty waters”—water fused with rose oil and trace minerals—to “skin food” from Bee Yummy, a moisturizer and healing salve made primarily from materials collected from bees.

Last but not least, if you are heading over to Brooklyn, you can find treatments for inside-outside beautifying there as well. Brooklyn’s restaurants, shops and spas have been competing with Manhattan for some time now. Area Emporium & Spa (281 Smith St., Carroll Gardens, 718.624.3157) accompanies each treatment with a free yoga class given by premium instructors. Try an aromatherapy massage and scalp treatment, followed by a restorative yoga class. Then cap off the day with a fine dinner at a spot like the highly rated Battersby in this foodie-centric neighborhood. You will feel happily satiated, from spirit to stomach.

borough beat

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.

Ridgewood, Queens, has suddenly found itself at the center of a veritable PR blitz. The area has recently seen a rapid influx of new bars, restaurants and hipster types who have been priced out of the trendy parts of Brooklyn, bringing the inevitable comparisons to that borough, with The New York Times even going so far as to coin the term “Quooklyn.” But make no mistake: This his community has a distinct character all its own.

For a treasure-filled vintage shopping experience that won’t break the bank, you’d do well to explore the secondhand furniture, street signage, vinyl and jewelry at Gotham Thrift Shop (60-21 Myrtle Ave., 347.796.0358). Just a few blocks away, you can pick up a locally made messenger bag from Vaya Bags (vayabags.com), which uses recycled canvas to create its unique, colorful and highly durable totes.

Houdini Kitchen Laboratory (houdinikitchenlaboratoryridgewood.com) is a pizzeria/beer garden that serves up killer pies, like its spicy habanero pizza, and is one of the coolest restaurant spaces in town: a former brewery from the 1880s, located just a mile from the gravesite of the real Houdini. Bún-ker (bunkervietnamese.com) is a casual spot for inexpensive and delicious Vietnamese street food garnering raves from critics. Finally, no roundup of Ridgewood food would be complete without mentioning Rudy’s Bakery & Café (rudysbakeryandcafe.com), a coffee shop/German bakery that has been a neighborhood institution since it opened its doors in 1934.

A slice of its Black Forest cake alone is worth the trip from Manhattan. Meanwhile, when it comes to drink, it seems like a new bar is opening in Ridgewood every week.

Newcomer Onderdonk & Sons (566 Onderdonk Ave., no phone) is popular for its chill vibe and its amazing happy hour special, which includes a burger, fries and a beer for just $10. Nowadays (nowadays.nyc) boasts Ping-Pong tables and DJ dance parties. And swing by Milo’s Yard (564 Seneca Ave., 347.987.4535) for craft beer, an array of pinball machines and snacks like Jamaican beef patties and samosas.

Ridgewood’s European roots are evident at its most famous historical landmark: The Onderdonk House (onderdonkhouse .org). This well-preserved property is the oldest Dutch colonial stone house in New York City, and it serves as a striking presence in the modern urban landscape as well as a museum honoring the area’s rich Dutch history, so it’s definitely worth a stop. If you’re in the mood for a slightly more avant-garde cultural excursion, check out Lorimoto Gallery (lorimoto.com), an exhibition space featuring local and international artists that is housed in a former knitting factory on Hancock Street.
