Don’t Forget to Remember the International Bar

I don’t remember the first time I went to the International Bar, and if you’re willing to spend $20 there I doubt you will either. Drinks, like the beer and shot combo, start as low as four bucks. And when I say “shot” I don’t mean that puny thimble you’re

Watch Movies on a Motherf#$*ing Boat at Intrepid’s FREE Movie Series

The summer movie series is about as ubiquitous in NYC as the chicken bones that mysteriously litter our sidewalks. But! There is only one that is on a ship. And not just any ship, an effing WAR SHIP. How many times can you say you watched E.T. on a retired

Feel The Big Headroom at 61 Local

While I don’t ever celebrate someone going out of business, the closed-down garage has been a great boon for alcoholics and art enthusiasts everywhere. Numerous galleries, performance spaces, bars, and restaurants have sprung up from where once upon a time you got your muffler checked. The great advantage to these

Free Saki-Soaked Sushi at Sapporo Haru

Usually the words “cheap” and “sushi” do not sit so well together; ending only in feelings of remorse and painful, painful nausea. But Sapporo Haru is not your typical toilet bowl hugging mistake. Sure, the decor is stale and reminiscent of a doctor’s office, but that’s jus cuz they wanna

Smorgasburg: A Food Flea in Williamsburg

As the name might suggest, Brooklyn Flea’s newest food venture Smorgasburg is both a “giant buffet” of food vendors, and taking place in Williamsburg. Riding the food-truck, artisanal food-crazy bandwagon, this sprawling outdoor market promises to be the one stop shop for all of New York’s foodies every Saturday this

Enid’s, Can I Be Your Norm?

I pinky swear that I try to hit up new places. Blah blah blah variety is the spice of life or whatever.  But sometimes a gal just wants a staple, ya know? A place to imagine her own little Cheers-type scenario in which she’s not only greeted “hello” but also

Sandwichian Rhapsody at Fredi

“Can anybody fiiiiind meeeeee… a sandwiiiiich to looooooove?” This is the question Fredi, a sandwich bar tribute to Freddie Mercury, wants to answer with a big glammy “Yes.” Located near Union Square, I’m pumped to have a new place to nosh beyond free samples from Trader Joe’s and Whole Foods.

Good Times, Good Co.

I’ve been wanting to check out Williamsburg bar Good Co. since word spread to my Midwestern ears that they had one of the flyover states’ favorite past times, Cornhole (note: I did NOT say cow tipping, thankyouverymuch). Fortunately when I finally visited I found many other reasons to return: cocktails
