BRAND-NEW PERKS
Half Off Your Next Pair of Designer Jeans
This week, Perks is taking half off your next pair of cult selvage denim jeans, fresh from the laboratory:
the Denim Design Lab. It’s modern-day jean science, with a dash of old-timey alchemy. A little jean
alchemy goes a long way.

MEXICUE
Old-Fashioned Tijuana BBQ
You’ve sampled endless enchiladas and had many a silent, reflective moment with a dry-rubbed pork
shoulder. Now, brace yourself for the glorious commingling of these two righteous cuisines at the new
Mexicue truck. We’re talking smoked short rib tacos, lobster sliders with habanero and pickled jalapeños,
and other culinary diplomacy that might have prevented that whole Alamo tragedy.
- 411:
- Mexicue, follow here or call for daily location, 917-568-8922
CLOSE-ING
90% Off at BBlessing
When a well-loved boutique decides to close up shop, it’s best to take a moment to reflect, and then go
buy their absinthe fountain. BBlessing is selling theirs, and everything else—from furniture and books to
jeans, vintage tees and enough plaids to last a lifetime—at 90% off. Reflection is best accompanied by an
absinthe fountain.
- 411:
- Through Jul 31, BBlessing, 181 Orchard St (near Stanton), 212-378-8005
WRESTL-ING
Gorgeous Ladies of Wrestling
Every now and again, a pack of epically buff lady warriors will get together at a loft in Greenpoint for the
sole purpose of wrestling each other and anyone in the audience who is in the mood for getting tossed across
the room. Tonight, that anyone could be you. Expect no mercy.

- Jul 29, 7pm-midnight, $50, Wrestling Party, 100 Sutton St, Brooklyn, 646-242-6676
BBQ ICE CREAM
Getting Corny at Momofuku Milk
Having a favorite ice cream flavor is a risky proposition with the soft-serve alchemists at Momofuku Milk
Bar conjuring things like the new BBQ flavor, which you should feel free to scoop up with potato chips.
There’s also a new creamed corn flavor. Because the only way to improve ice cream is more cream.

BINGO
Gaming Night at The Standard Grill
Ending a well-fought weekend is always a bitter pill, unless you happen to be lauded with free cocktails,
dinners and other prizes just for screaming out “I-84.” The Standard Grill is hosting a new Sunday bingo
night at 11pm, complete with a late-night menu of food, drink and victorious gamesmanship. Grandma would be
so proud.

ROCK PARTY
Avenue Tuesdays Move Downtown
Day & Night’s daytime brunch parties have been known to land just shy of absurdity, bathed in magnums
of champagne and noon sun. Now Day & Night is living up to the second part of its name with a new
Tuesday evening at the Trump SoHo, where the velvet rope becomes a lot tighter, champagne is traded for
vodka, and bikinis are sadly traded for cocktail dresses.
