  HOOK, LINE AND SINKERFeast of the Seven Fishes at Incanto
Celebrate Christmas Eve like the Italians do at this three-course feast featuring seven kinds of fish.
Expect the bounty of the sea to appear in dishes like seafood salad and spaghettini with sardines. But
you'll be glad to know that the Chocolate Panforte Cake is fish-free.
  'CUING UPEmerald Bowl BBQ at Elixir
Whether you're pulling for USC or Boston College, Elixir will be neutral territory. At least five TVs will
be tuned into the game, and the hibachi will be in full force rolling out charcoal-grilled brats, ribs and
burgers. Add daylong drink specials and the game almost seems like an afterthought.
 SALE-INGAgent Provocateur Winter Sale
When you hear "babydoll nighties" and "lacy corsets" in the same sentence as "half-off," we know what you're
thinking. And that'll happen in time. But first head down to Union Square and pick up a few at a discount of
up to 50 percent.
  FREEZINGCultivé Frozen Yogurt Opening
This new froyo shop's got flavors like cinnamon bun and cake batter as well as your standby chocolate. Since
it's self-serve, you can mix and match them (chocolate cake batter sounds about right) and go to town with
as many as 50 toppings, including Cap'n Crunch, cheesecake bits and mochi. But probably not all at once.
  GOING STRONGMonk's Kettle Vertical Beer Tasting
We all know those monks know how to brew a beer, so imagine what a mad one could do. Taste the extremely
limited bourbon-barrel-aged North Coast Imperial Stout Old Rasputin in honor of the 93rd anniversary of the
death of Rasputin—aka the "Mad Monk"—and toast when insanity, friars and alcohol come together.
