  PERKS1 New Perk
This week's Perk gives you a free week at Equinox Fitness Clubs, now outfitted with iPhone-assisted bookings
and eucalyptus-scented towels. Fair warning: there may be some exercise involved.
 RICE AND SHINESake Day Celebration at the JCC
Today marks the beginning of the sake-brewing season in Japan. In honor of the occasion (considered the
Oktoberfest of sake), it's only right to drink sake, and a lot of it—like 100 different labels
hand-selected by Tru Sake's master sommelier.
 NIGHT AT THE MUSEUMThe Exploratorium After Dark
We haven't confirmed this with Einstein, but we'd venture to say that the theory of relativity really comes
into focus after a few neat whiskeys. So tonight, head to Hardly Strictly Science at the Exploratorium and
learn everything about the physics of music over a cocktail, or three.
 GRAND REOPENINGQuince Reopens in Jackson Square
You've heard a lot about Quince moving into Myth's old space, and today is the big debut. Expect a bigger
menu in the (much) bigger space and David Lynch (the heavyweight NYC sommelier, not the creepy director) in
charge of the Italian-centric wine list.
  DELIVERINGBar Bambino Delivers Lunch
Even if you can't have your three-martini lunch, you still need to eat. Opt for Bar Bambino's lunch
delivery. Five different sandwiches, like the porchetta, come with shortbread cookies, salad and an Italian
soda. Delivery is gratis for 10 or more—lunches, not martinis.
 BEAST OF BURDENWeekly Beast Menu at One Market
Friday marks the beginning of One Market's weekly whole-animal menu. This weekend features five wine-paired
courses of goat—think: sausage, spit-roasted leg, neck ragu, roasted rack and loin and goat cheese
cake. Pig, duck, lamb and cow are lined up for upcoming weeks—just don't tell them yet.
