Jared Grimes was 3 years old when his mother, a dance teacher, gave him his first pair of tap shoes. And he’s been brush stepping, cramp rolling, falling off the log and stag leaping ever since. Now 29, Grimes showcases his beautiful, athletically awesome moves in Cotton Club Parade, a song-and-dance revue that celebrates the legendary Harlem nightclub in the 1920s and 1930s. Think: big band swing, hot jazz, sophisticated ladies, satin dolls and Grimes stopping the show with his self-choreographed routine “Goin’ Nuts” (left).

Think what you will about 18-year-old Justin Bieber (right), the phenomenally successful singer, recording artist and teen idol, one thing’s for certain: The lad’s a trouper in the best show-must-goon tradition. On Sept. 29 in Glendale, Arizona, during the kickoff concert of his national tour (he stops in NYC this month for three shows), after twice becoming sick onstage and twice going offstage to recover, he finished the gig, even mustering the strength for an encore.

behind the curtain news » by Francis Lewis

All for Love It takes a romantic to know a romantic, which is why actor Douglas Hodge (left, with Clémence Poésy) and Cyrano de Bergerac, the character he embodies in Edmond Rostand’s play of the same name, are a match made in Broadway heaven. “I’m hopelessly romantic,” Hodge confesses. “I’m keen on unplanned acts of affection, looking to the moon for guidance and generally being superstitious about almost everything.

Cyrano believes that he’s essentially unlovable, but he’s also a dreamer, a visionary and a man who plans a trip to the moon. I admire all those qualities about him.” While Cyrano woos with verse, Hodge has been known to write songs for his lovers “and sing them to them late at night.” He once received an elaborate surprise and token of love: a giftwrapped piano. But, like Cyrano, he suspects “the way to someone’s heart in the end is laughter and kindness.” » Cyrano de Bergerac, Roundabout Theatre Company, American Airlines Theatre, 227 W. 42nd St., 212.719.1300

Less Is More “Trust me, there’s more to designing skimpy costumes than one might think,” says Jessica Wegener-Shay, costume designer for The Performers, the Broadway comedy about the porn industry. “Adult entertainment is a serious art form.” For Mandrew, the studly up-and-comer, played by Cheyenne Jackson (below), she’s created a body-revealing outfit, made of “only the best pleather, of course, that’s Planet of the Apes meets Gladiator meets Emmanuelle Through Time.” To emphasize Mandrew’s virility, she also puts him in a tiger print jacket. “The wearing of animal skins has always been a symbol of physical prowess,” she contends. “Mandrew’s jacket is the outward manifestation of a man at the top of his game.” But sometimes it’s what’s underneath that counts. To avoid a wardrobe malfunction onstage, “a good understructure” is a must for even the skimpiest costume. » The Performers, Longacre

A Matter of Faith Ed Asner has a way with words. Returning to Broadway in Grace (far right, with Paul Rudd), after an absence of 23 years, is “like cashing a long overdue check,” he says. Other 82-year-olds might be content to retire, but not Asner.

He’s decided to play Karl, an exterminator and professed atheist in a play about faith and religion, “to shake up the bottle, be different, keep myself from growing old.” There’s no denying the hold Karl has on him: “I was raised in faith, but I’ve had an alienation from belief for a long time.

Particularly when I see the fervency or,

let me say, the decibels of believers. That drives me away even further. So I tend to quite identify with Karl. At the same time, being a near-child of World War II—the Korean War was my theater of action— the comment at the time was, ‘There are no atheists in foxholes.’ Well, until I find myself in a foxhole, I won’t be able to tell you how I really feel.” » Grace, Cort Theatre, 138 W. 48th St., 212.239.6200

Late Bloomer The American artist Martin Johnson Heade (1819-1904) went through several phases during his long career. With minimal training, he began as an itinerant portraitist. In the 1850s, he settled in New York, mingling with members of the Hudson River School and adopting their penchant for powerful landscapes. And then, in the last 20 years of his life, Heade painted what many critics consider his Sculptural Seating finest work—still lifes, such as There are those who would erect a wall “Cherokee Roses in a Glass Vase” between the fine and the decorative arts. (left, ca. 1883-1888), that comWhat, then, do they make of the work of bine a luminous use of light with Wendell Castle, whose furniture—while the straightforward simplicity of functional—can only be described as his folk art roots. Was this latesculpture? Mounted in celebration of the artist’s 80th year, Volumes and Voids life flowering due to his marriage displays new, limited-edition pieces rich in at age 64? To his move to tropical the characteristic Castle style: glistening Florida? To his finding a patron organic forms, decorated only by exotic (oil magnate Henry Flagler) and materials, such as silver-leaf fiberglass or financial security?

Crafty Creatures

According to Mayan legend, the current world will cease to exist at the end of the 13th B’ak’tun, around Dec. 23. RH Gallery’s 13.0.0.0 offers 21 artists’ interpretations on the themes of time and ritualistic belief, including “Allegoria Sacra.

Still #1-22” (below, 2011) by the Russian group AES+F. Not all the works are apocalyptic in nature. After all, observes gallery director Rebecca Heidenberg, the Mayans believed the end of one life cycle heralded the birth of a new one. » RH Gallery, 137 Duane St., 646.490.6355, Nov. 6-Jan. 17, 2013

For 25 years, Karen Nicol carved out a career embroidering and embellishing fabrics for fashion labels such as Clements Ribeiro and Chloé. “I love collaborating,” the London-based designer says, “but I wanted to make things that were not necessarily practical.” The fruits of her fanciful labors comprise an Imaginary Menagerie of mixed-media animals.

Created on a 70-year-old, foot-pedal-operated embroidery machine (“You can virtually draw with it”), the critters include “Marquetry Fox” (above, 2012), with a taffeta coat, raffia tail and sweet face (a cutout photo of wood grains). » Rebecca Hossack Gallery NYC, 262 Mott St., 212.925.3500, Nov. 7-30

INSIDE FINE ART GALLERY HASTED KRAEUTLER SARAH HASTED & JOSEPH KRAEUTLER

Owners of Hasted Kraeutler, a contemporary art gallery that is located in the heart of New York’s Chelsea art district. Sarah and Joseph share their favorite art works from the gallery’s current exhibition with photographer, Albert Watson & from this year’s previous exhibitions with photographer, Nick Brandt and painter, Kim Dong Yoo.

Kim Dong Yoo Installation view

ALBERT WATSON Artist Albert Watson, with Sarah Hasted and Joseph Kraeutler

Albert Watson is a world famous photographer. The photographs in this solo exhibition celebrate the 20th anniversary of Cyclops (Callaway Editions, 1994), which was the artist’s first major monograph. Cyclops will display unique vintage platinum and silver prints by the artist, spanning 40 years of the photographer’s career, including iconic celebrity portraits, such as Mick Jagger, Los Angeles, 1992, Kate Moss, Marrakech, Morocco, 1993 (below) and Alfred Hitchcock, Los Angeles, 1973.

NICK BRANDT Nick Brandt’s photographs feature stunning images of endangered African animals, which he photographs “in the same way I would a human being, watching for the right ‘pose’ that hopefully will best capture his or her spirit,” he says. Always “moving in close” he never uses a telephoto lens, because it is too impersonal.

Prices of the photographs from the exhibition start at $4,500.

Hasted Kraeutler is open to the public Tuesday - Saturday, 11 am - 6 pm.

And now you crave lobster.

Empathy for the seven to 10 million blind and visually impaired people in America is the primary lesson learned at Dialog in the Dark (below), an hourlong, total-immersion experience. Visitors lock away all light-emitting devices—watches, cellphones, cameras, sneakers— before they’re shown the proper way to walk with a cane. Then, total darkness descends and a blind guide leads the way through a series of simulated NYC scenes, such as Central Park and Times Square.

The bonus prize: a deep appreciation of sight. » Dialog in the Dark, South Street Seaport Exhibition Center, 11 Fulton St., 646.747.5663

To Your Health

Warhol Warehouse Throughout the 1960s, 1970s and 1980s, Andy Warhol anchored his pop art enterprise in a series of groundbreaking NYC studios known as The Factory. They became sanctuaries for artists, socialites, drag queens and the hippest of free thinkers. Today, W.i.P (short for Work in Progress) seeks to emulate the eccentric aura of Warhol’s lairs in the form of a nightclub lounge. The space (below)—a converted warehouse illuminated by colorful lights—is decked out in pop art and features a 60-sided polyhedron projection screen. Contortionists and fire jugglers can be spotted amid an eclectic crowd dancing to a mix of radio hits and house/techno beats. There may be a line for entry, but, as Warhol himself said, “The idea of waiting for something makes it more exciting.” » W.i.P., 34 Vandam St., 212.524.9600

If you’re wondering what awaits you at Lucky Cheng’s, just ask Aerosmith: “Dude looks like a lady!”

Gender lines are blurred and inhibitions shed at this renowned den of drag, recently relocated to the Theater District. Inside, men don feminine finery (above) and stage racy, interactive cabaret shows while guests indulge in Pan-Asian cuisine

by Chef Richard Krause and a selection of tonguein-cheek cocktails, such as Betty’s Pool Boy (vodka, rum, gin, blue curaçao, pineapple, tart lime) and Ruby’s Boobies (vodka, rum, amaretto, hazelnut liqueur).

Storied Style On a tranquil side street, art lover Claire Distenfeld recently opened clothing boutique Fivestory (above), with the dream of invoking the opulent world of emporia past. The shop is bedecked with Italian black-and-white marble floors and silkdraped doorways. Fine art lines the walls, while luxe labels like Balmain, Maison Kitsune and Bon Ton stock the racks for her, him and kids. Despite its moniker, the store currently occupies only two floors, plus a skylit “shoe garden.” What rings true to the name, however, is Distenfeld’s belief that every item she sells possesses five stories, from creation to purchase.

Rugged Home The lush silk, wool and linen carpets of Turkish rug company Stepevi can be found on the floors of high-end boutiques, such as Christian Dior, luxe Istanbul hotels, private yachts and aircrafts—and, now, in the home of anyone who ventures into the recently opened SoHo showroom. Clients can customize many of the contemporary designs, creating their own, say, “Parquet” rug (above), using 75 different colors. » Stepevi, 147 Wooster St., 212.466.0400

In 1930, tailor Vincenzo Attolini of Naples challenged the stiff Britishstyle jacket with a version that was soft and lightweight, with dropped shoulders, high armholes and no padding. Two generations later, the firm Cesare Attolini (suitmaker to smart signori worldwide, named after Vincenzo’s son) has opened its first American outpost (above), offering Neapolitan tailoring to the gentlemanly masses. Custom clients ascend the stairs to a private atelier for fittings; the handcrafted garb is about eight weeks in the making.

Those who need immediate sartorial satisfaction can peruse the readyto-wear by the light of a cascading chandelier. » Cesare Attolini, 798 Madison Ave., 646.707.3006

Amid the Meatpacking District’s slew of designer boutiques, newcomer OWEN (right) stands out as a multibrand purveyor.

But the real buzz among fashionistas is over its vaulted interior, covered with 25,000 paper bags, creating the effect of a honeycomb. The mens- and womenswear reflect designers both established and emerging, with a tendency toward pieces possessing “a subtle flair for the dramatic,” says owner Phillip Salem, a fashion reporter turned retailer. » OWEN, 809 Washington St., 212.524.9770

welcome Katie takes Manhattan by storm as she bows on Broadway, lends her fabulous face to a cosmetics company, designs clothing and shares the city with her precious daughter. By Brian Scott Lipton

L

et’s make one thing perfectly clear: Katie Holmes wants to talk about her new role on Broadway—not her recent high-profile divorce from you-know-who. And who could blame her? The paparazzi and tabloids may be obsessed with the glamorous Manhattan mom’s every move (with or without daughter Suri by her side), but Holmes would much rather contemplate her exciting next move—a star turn on Broadway.

The 33-year-old willowy brunette returns to the Great White Way this month in Dead Accounts, a new five-character comedy by Pulitzer Prize finalist and Smash creator Theresa Rebeck. She plays Lorna, an unmarried woman living with and caring for her aging parents in Cincinnati, whose brother Jack (played by two-time Tony Award winner Norbert Leo Butz) unexpectedly shows up with $27 million dollars and the inability to explain the whereabouts of his wife, whom nobody seems to like anyway.

“When I read the play for the first time, I immediately connected to these characters,” says Holmes in an email, a couple of weeks before rehearsals began in October. “They are all very real and very human. As I was reading the script, there were moments when I was laughing and other moments when I felt real empathy for all these people. I am so excited by the challenge of playing Lorna, who is a woman on the verge of selfdiscovery and the anchor to everyone around her. And I am very inspired by our wonderful cast and director, Jack O’Brien. Doing this play is a dream come true.”

Born in Toledo, Ohio, on Dec. 18, 1978, Holmes is the youngest of five children, and many of her most important parts seem to have revolved around family dynamics. Early in her career, she played an overindulged Upper East Side teenager in the film The Ice Storm (1997); a headstrong tomboy in the teen TV drama series Dawson’s Creek (1998-2003); and a tattooed, black-sheep daughter, who invites her estranged

1112_IN_F_Celeb_LO.indd 22

family to a Thanksgiving dinner in her Lower East Side apartment, in the movie Pieces of April (2003).

And then, four years ago, Holmes made her Broadway debut in a revival of Arthur Miller’s All My Sons (2008). “It was an incredible experience. I loved being onstage with that incredible cast [led by John Lithgow and Dianne Wiest] every night and truly becoming a family,” says Holmes. “And I was so moved by the generosity of the Broadway community. I am so happy to be returning now, to be a part of it again.”

After a decade of film and television work, appearing onstage was a bit jarring at first, she admits, but she eagerly adapted. “I quickly learned to embrace the changes that occurred from show to show,” she says.

“At first, I thought a show wasn’t good if it didn’t go exactly like it had the previous night. But then I realized those changes allowed for each of us to grow. It was good practice for Dead Accounts.”

In addition to performing on Broadway eight times a week, Holmes has several other major projects on her plate right now: raising her 6-year-old daughter, Suri Cruise, in their new apartment in Chelsea; co-designing her ready-to-wear collection, Holmes & Yang (available at Barneys New York), which was presented for the first time during Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week in September; and signing a multiyear, multimillion dollar deal to be the “face” of Bobbi Brown Cosmetics.

“I don’t stress. Well, OK, maybe sometimes,” she says of her hectic schedule. “I love having structure in my life. I am honored to be the ‘face’ of Bobbi Brown, not only because I am such a fan of her makeup, but also because I am a huge fan of Bobbi herself. She is so kind, hardworking, generous and talented. As for keeping the balance between my personal life, acting and fashion work, that is an ever-evolving task of organizational design. But I am so grateful for all of it.”

What more can she say?

Exotic spices and local foodstuffs, lighter preparations and individual portions: Some of the town’s top toques tell how they tweak, adapt and breathe new life into time-honored dishes.

New York is the place for the new—it says so right in the name. If you want innovation, you come here to work and to visit, to play and to eat. The city’s chefs are among the most creative artists in this capital of reinvention, which inspires them to take gustatory tradition—a classic dish from a venerable cuisine—and make it fresh for today’s tastes.

Appropriately situated steps from the United Nations, MEGU (Trump World Tower, 845 United Nations Plaza, 212.964.7777) has a menu that imparts a Japanese twist to international dishes: Salmon tartare, that French bistro classic, is lavished with ikura (salmon roe) and then topped with wasabi jelly melted tableside. The kitchen crew, which works without a designated top toque, also offers Nipponese novelties, such as crispy kanzuri shrimp, an inventive spin on shrimp tempura named for the kanzuri chili paste that sparks its cream sauce. This uncommon condiment is made of peppers that are pickled in sea salt right atop the snow on the northern island of Honshu. Intense as it sounds, “the kanzuri does not take over the shrimp,” says General Manager Koichi Yokoyama. “It’s a very subtle taste.”

From its scenic perch on Madison Square Park, La Mar Cebichería Peruana (11 Madison Ave., 212.612.3388) spreads the gospel of Peru’s signature dish, raw fish marinated in leche de tigre (tiger’s milk), composed of lime juice, salt, red onion and aji or chile peppers, which “cooks” it lightly and gently. Says Executive Chef Victoriano López, a protégé of La Mar founder/Peruvian superstar toque Gastón

Acurio: “Cebiche is the original harbor dish, mixing the kitchen traditions of Spain, China, Japan, Italy, Africa and the Andes.” La Mar adds another element to the mix: New York. Chef López has become an early-morning regular at the Hunt’s Point fish market, because, he says, “Cebiche depends on freshness. I’m learning Atlantic fish just as well as I know Peru’s Pacific fish.” He also tinkers with presentation, offering tastings of different versions of cebiche, and pumps up the spice. “Diners here like extra-hot habañero peppers with their cebiche—like a fiesta inside your mouth!”

Lincoln Center’s performing artists create a cultural fiesta nightly. Amid these creative surroundings, Lincoln Ristorante (142 W. 65th St., 212.359.6500) interprets Italian cucina “for a very discerning and diverse clientele,” says Executive Chef Jonathan Benno. “My mission is to translate traditional pan-Italian recipes for today’s New York.” His reginette verdi al ragú Bolognese is made, as custom dictates, with housemade pasta. But Chef Benno’s is ruffled—and green. “Reginette verdi is not only fun,” he says, “it’s the perfect vehicle for a ragú.” To the Bolognese sauce he adds “a bit of chicken liver to the usual pork and beef, for a wonderfully meaty IN New YORK | november 2012 | innewyork.com

taste.” His tajarin al tartufo bianco is true to its Piemontese origins, “with house-made egg pasta, Castelmagno cheese that’s aged in a Northern Italian cave, and white truffles from Alba, shaved at the table,” he says. The twist is in the sauce, an elegantly reduced, complex, chicken-stock jus “that adds depth and complexity.” And that perennial, eggplant Parmigiana—“a beloved New York dish, which my Italian-American grandmother used to make”—is “tailored for today’s tastes, with thin-sliced eggplant that doesn’t absorb oil, housemade mozzarella and a marinara sauce that’s simmered for a long time,” explains Chef Benno.

At Molyvos (871 Seventh Ave., 212.582.7500), Chef Jim Botsacos is also reinterpreting kitchen favorites—of the Greek variety. Take moussaka, “a peasant-dish warhorse that has become one of New York’s favorite comfort foods,” he says.

“But it can be heavy, and my diners want the classics done in an interesting, flavor-packed way.” Chef Botsacos has rethought every recipe step. “I don’t just grind and bake the lamb, I sear and caramelize it first to heighten the flavor. I add some currants for a flavor hit, and I use a custom spice mixture that’s softer than old-school nutmeg and cinnamon.”

And the usual thick blanket of béchamel? “I lighten it up by folding in yogurt for an airy texture and a tangy note that balances the richness of the lamb. And since individual por-

26

tions are more modern than family-style, I bake each moussaka to order in personal-size casseroles, and serve them straight from the oven,” says Chef Botsacos.

Chef Katie Busch is similarly lightening things up at Hospoda (321 E. 73rd St., 212.861.1038), a shrine to Bohemian beer and food (Bohemian not in the hipster sense, but the Czech Republic and Slovakia sense). The term may be antiquated, but the cuisine itself is “the original farm-to-table style—something very ‘of the moment,’” Chef Busch notes. Her contemporary update of that Mittel Europa staple, wiener schnitzel (cutlet), employs flavorful Berkshire pork rather than veal, a lighter batter that allows for sautéeing rather than frying, “and pickled baby beets instead of old-fashioned red cabbage.” (Cabbage does make a cameo appearance in another dish, reduced into an essence and spooned over duck confit.) The restaurant’s venue echoes the cuisine’s “updated classic” theme: It’s the 1897-vintage Bohemian National Hall, decorated with a graffiti artist’s contemporary wood-paneled mural.

“Diners want the classics—done in an interesting way,” suggests Jim Botsacos, chef of Molyvos.

Refurbs aren’t just for home cooking, but for haute cuisine as well. Adventurous twists on les classiques françaises is the mantra at Corton (239 W. Broadway, 212.219.2777), says Chef/partner Paul Liebrandt: “Diners here have high standards, and they like surprises.” Case in point: A refreshing dish called langoustine, “my team’s interpretation of oysters en gelée.” This contemporary creation marries creamy meat of langoustine—Europe’s “Norway lobster”—with exotic Asian hints of cardamom and almond in an almond crème. A bit of wizardry with gelatin achieves the langoustine’s gossamer robe of gelée, resulting in a dish that’s “winningly lighthearted,” observes the chef. Another favorite menu item riffs on French haute cuisine’s classic galantine—a chicken in aspic—by unexpectedly pairing East Coast peekytoe crab with IN New YORK | november 2012 | innewyork.com

old-world foie gras. Inspiration for this chilled creation struck “one day in the kitchen, when we were all sitting around talking,” says Chef Liebrandt. “This city really is the proverbial melting pot of residents and ingredients.”

While Chef Liebrandt adds Asian spice to classic French fare, Chef Vikas Khanna of Junoon (27 W. 24th St., 212.490.2100) is applying Gallic technique to the time-honored recipes of his native India—in particular, his signature duck Tellicherry. This bold yet harmonious dish is named for its fresh-ground crust of black Tellicherry peppercorns from Kerala in southern India, “a spice treasured in ancient times, like today,” says the chef. Rather than oven-roast a whole bird, as per custom, he adapted a recipe for duck breasts “that I learned at Le Cordon Bleu cooking school in Paris,” he says. This French rendering technique, which calls for cooking in a hot pan and then an oven, “concentrates the

duck’s flavor and crisps the skin,” says Chef Khanna. He bathes the finished breast in a lush, Tellicherry-sparked, coconut-curry sauce from Kerala, and serves it atop rare red rice from Bhutan, rather than the usual basmati. “In many ways, my duck Tellicherry represents a journey. Its ancient ingredients have found their way to New York, just like we who live or visit here,” the chef adds.

At newcomer Sirio Ristorante New York (The Pierre, a Taj Hotel, 795 Fifth Ave., 212.940.8195), “I wanted to create a delicious dish with style and color,” says Chef Filippo Gozzoli. “And a lot of fresh garden flavor that reminds diners that Central Park is right across the street.” Filling the bill: il nostro risotto alla pizzaiola, “which means ‘our risotto with tomato sauce.’” A departure from the usual Parmesan-rich, herb-flecked rice dish, “Adapting my Chef Gozzoli’s version has a sauce that spotlights five distinctive varieties of to- native India’s mato, all prepped differently: sautéed or recipes to NYC roasted with either garlic, onion or basil.

The cheese, too, has been tweaked. “New feels natural”— York City diners are Italian food experts, Junoon Chef so I want to use the best,” explains Chef Gozzoli. “Our risotto has creamy burrata Vikas Khanna. mozzarella cheese instead of the usual kind. Burrata means ‘buttered’ in Italian, and it’s a beautiful taste.”

Beautiful tastes are also an obsession for restaurateur Alison Price Becker at her Alison Eighteen (15 W. 18th St., 212.366.1818), whose culinary concept is so fundamental, it’s radical: premiumquality food cooked on a rotisserie. “It’s time to go back to basics,” Price Becker asserts. “For me, right now, that means spit-roasting”—probably the oldest form of cooking known to man, though Executive Chef Juan Carlos Landazuri prepares the Gallic-American fare with a state-ofthe-art, stainless steel Rotisol grill from France—“a thing of beauty,” coos Price Becker. It makes “chicken, lamb and roast duck taste like they’re supposed to, with perfect, even cooking and pure roasted-in flavor that jumps right out at you.” Even vegetables get into the Rotisol act at Alison, basking in pans at the grill’s bottom, “where fat drips off the rotating ducks, and creates a satisfying taste,” she says.

The Small Dining Set Dining out is a highlight of any NYC visit, even if you’re traveling en famille.

The city abounds in “places that are engaging, with settings that encourage make-believe play,” says Anabela Moumdjian, concierge at the Hôtel Plaza Athénée. For example, at Alice’s Tea Cup, a trio of Alice in Wonderlandthemed tea salons on the Upper East and West sides, “kids can feel like adults drinking out of porcelain cups; there’s also plenty of decoration to look at, and little ones can borrow fairy wings to wear while they dine.” She also recommends restaurants with an “engaging waitstaff” that entertains or interacts with diners, such as Ninja New York, where servers double as ninja warriors, or Crypt Cafe, inside spook house Times Scare, where actors from the adjacent haunted house—dressed as zombies or vampires—might stop by your table for a visit. Culinary acts can also be entertaining. Many restaurants have open kitchens, allowing close-up glimpses of food preparation, such as fresh guacamole at a Mexican restaurant or raw fish at a sushi bar.

Then there are eateries where children can do their TIPS FROM: own cooking: Korean barbecue, Japanese shabuAnabela Moumdjian, Concierge, Hôtel Plaza shabu, French fondue.
