PERK ALERT

Three Ways to Drink Like a King

You would like a drink this weekend. (Just a hunch.) Your best options: 1) Endless beer and wine with Michelin-approved comfort food at majestic Flatiron bistro Prandial. 2) Brunch with bottomless mimosas and Bloodys at West Village hot spot Brooklyneer. 3) Four date-worthy cocktails in the velvet-cloaked Parlour at the Roger. Cheers.

411:: Appetizers and endless drinks at Prandial; the perfect brunch at the Brooklyneer; four wintry cocktails at the Parlour at the Roger

YOUR ABC’S

Half Off Some Spectacular Furniture

Sitting. It’s the best. Especially on butter-soft leather framed with salvaged airplane steel. Which, hey, that’s what Timothy Oulton makes—ridiculously handsome furniture. And you can get it right now for a song. Well, that and some actual money.

411:: Through Jan 31, Timothy Oulton at ABC Carpet & Home, 888 Broadway (at 19th), 212-473-3000

NET POSITIVE

Eight Different Macaronis at Barclays

You’re at Barclays. Joe Johnson is single-handedly costing them the game. You’re restless. Only poutine mac and cheese can make this better. So you head to Elbow Room, which has that and seven other macs. Yeah, we didn’t know there were that many either.

411:: Now open, Elbow Room at Barclays Center, 614 Atlantic Ave (at Flatbush), Brooklyn, 718-230-4088

WHISKED AWAY

A Beer and Whiskey Fest at Webster Hall

Four floors of whiskey and beer tastings: usually entertainment enough. But at Webster Hall tomorrow, they’re augmenting those tastings with burlesque shows, jazz concerts and a mini circus. Just to make sure.

411:: Jan 19, 1:30-5:30pm, Webster Hall, 125 E 11th St (between 3rd and 4th), tickets here

THE WILD BRUNCH

Brunch and Mr. Fox at Tribeca Grand

You know what goes great with a leisurely afternoon of custom Belgian waffles and beef tartare... children’s movies. It’s true. Just ask the folks at Tribeca Grand, who are bringing the brunch buffet back this Sunday with a screening of Fantastic Mr. Fox. Something about Wes Anderson and brunch just feels right.

411:: Sundays, 11am-4pm, $34, Tribeca Grand Hotel, 2 6th Ave (at Walker), reserve at 212-519-6600

MILK IT

The Glorious Reopening of Milk & Honey

Milk & Honey. Perhaps the speakeasy legend in this city. Well, they moved. You’ve heard. It’s a big deal. Here’s the situation: it’s much larger than before. Which is probably why you can now pull off the previously unheard-of walk-in. Oh, and the menu: it doesn’t exist. Everything’s custom. See you there.

411:: Opens Jan 23, Milk & Honey, 30 E 23rd St (at Madison), text for reservations at 646-312-9529
