It’s nice that the more things change, the more they sometimes stay the same. Case in point, your summers in the Hamptons. There’s a reason why even after money is no object, you still choose to have “out East” as your home annex every year. This summer will not disappoint. By the looks of it, nightlife is going to be a vibe. And even without a summer rental, you’ll have plenty of bona fide luxe places to stay. But we’ll…
You’ve no doubt seen it in photographs. Each May, couture and camera flashes line the entrance as the Met Gala crowd gathers on its front steps. However, The Mark’s appeal runs deeper than a single night of fashion theater. This iconic NYC hotel refines indulgence into something seamless and instinctive.

There are three Soho Houses in New York City. There’s Ludlow House in the Lower East Side, DUMBO House in DUMBO, of course, and the iconic Soho House New York on Ninth Avenue. But that’s not enough for New Yorkers. When the chaos of urban life becomes a little too much, they need a proper place to retreat. And what New Yorkers want, New Yorkers get, so Soho House is building Soho Farmhouse Hudson Valley. It’s not quite ready yet…
One of the many reason that New York has such a good restaurant scene is because sometimes, like in the case of Odo NYC, there is more than meets the eye. Like, when you tuck into a non-descript bar for a drink and realize the back room has a Michelin-starred Kaiseki. What makes Odo so special, though, is the democracy of it all. Yes, there’s a traditional, reverent Omakase-like experience at their sushi bar. But there’s also a casual front…
We know we said that only grand gestures will do this Mother’s Day, but there is nothing grander than giving Mom the gift of your time. And because you’re such a good multi- tasker, it just makes sense to spend that time breaking bread (or a tin of caviar) to celebrate Mom at these top NYC spots.

Some say it with flowers. Then, there are those who say it with chocolate. That’s all nice, and of course, Mom doesn’t expect anything. In fact, she genuinely cherishes every gift you give, even that clock you made in woodshop in junior high. But you know Mom didn’t raise you to be run-of-the mill in anything, and that includes gift-giving. So naturally, you’re the one who says “thank you” with a grander gesture, like a well-deserved vacation with Mom. These…
They had us at the first glimpse of their fish and chips, and sealed the deal with their stargazy pie. From the team behind King is a casual rendition of the classic English Pub, and we liked it. A lot. This is a first look at the new Dean’s in NYC. Overview The opening of Dean’s makes you wonder why it took this long for a proper British pub to arrive in New York City. We’re not talking a themed…
Indian cuisine is having its moment in New York City. And when there’s a 35,000-person waitlist for a restaurant in the genre, you could say there’s even a frenzy. Musaafer is a transplant from Houston, and has joined the NYC restaurant scene. Photo courtesy of Musaafer. Atmosphere There is something to be said for a restaurant that stops you in your tracks before you’ve even sat down. Walk past Musaafer’s nondescript entrance on Duane Street in TriBeCa and you’d never…
It used to be members only meant the now almost extinct old-school suit and tie dress codes or gents only clubs. Today the velvet rope has gone vertical, from penthouses in Manhattan to oceanfront compounds in Malibu, to wellness and longevity oases. It may have started with Soho House as a one-off coveted membership, but the next gen of private clubs is giving you a whole host of reasons to join, and our bet is they’re here to stay. An…
