The weekend is going to rock you like a hurricane.
WHOLE HOG
Get the Full Pig at DBGB
Think of eating a nice, light dinner. Now think of eating its most polar opposite. This is the new whole pig
dinner at DBGB—the beast is stuffed with housemade sausages and covered in potatoes, corn and hot
gruyère. And served with all the craft beef you can drink. As we said, polar opposite.

SHELTER ISLAND
East Hampton Soiree at Varvatos
With this whole Hurricane Earl thing threatening to seriously derail your beach time this holiday weekend,
John Varvatos is offering a more sheltered option. Naturally, this shelter includes live sets by rockers
Little Head Thinks and free-flowing cocktails. Your preferred accessories for riding out any natural
disaster.

BRUNCH-ING
Getting Brunchy at the Waverly Inn
Your Saturday morning eggs Benedict has been getting a little complacent lately. A little too comfortable.
It’s time to shake things up. It’s time to add some Maine peekytoe crab. Maybe a truffled omelet with
caviar. And to rarefy the surroundings. Yes, the Waverly Inn is introducing brunch. Consider this the end of
complacency.

- Sat-Sun, 11am-3pm, The Waverly Inn, 16 Bank St, 917-828-1154
WARM UP
Biggest Little Dance Party in New York
For those staying cityside this holiday weekend, the quickest path to the Ibiza of the mind is a jaunt to
PS1 and the now-legendary courtyard dance parties. This is the final shindig of the summer, and no doubt the
regulars will be looking to make it count. Things could get ugly. In a very attractive way.
- 411:
- Sep 4, 2-9pm, MoMA PS1, 22-25 Jackson Ave, LIC, 718-784-2084
BRUNCH-ING
Unlimited Boozing with Brunch
Yes, brunching at Sweetiepie is like brunching in a Victorian dollhouse. But a dollhouse that offers
unlimited sangria, mimosas, Bloody Marys or dirty lemonades. We recommend not mixing the four. Unless
you’re after more of a Welcome to the Dollhouse experience.

MERCER UNDERGROUND
SubMercer Rises Again
It was open just long enough to become the stuff of celebrity partying legend. Then it closed. For five
years. Then it reopened. Then it closed again. On Wednesday, you guessed it, SubMercer emerges into the sun
once again. Well, not the sun exactly, but you get the point.

- Reopening on Sep 8, 147½ Mercer St, 212-966-6060
