The weekend doesn’t have time for excuses.
This week, Perks has saved you a seat in the private dining room for Locanda Verde’s upcoming Trufflepalooza. (You’re welcome.) Plus, 40% off Nickel’s Morning After Rescue Gel—a hangover-curing face cream infused with caffeine, citrus and soy protein to smooth any lingering roughness. White truffle hangovers are the worst.
Oktoberfest may be over in Munich, but at a certain farm in Queens (the only real farm in NYC), the beer bacchanal is on for this Friday, complete with local Brooklyn brews and an outdoor sausage BBQ. They also have a three-acre cornfield maze. Because why wouldn’t they.

Sure, you could content yourself with a hangover-obliterating plate of chicken arepas or “cachapa Benedict.” But for another dozen dollars, the entire cocktail menu could be yours for a full hour. We suggest seeing how fast you can drink a mimosa. And then trying to beat that record with the next mimosa.
Sure, you’ve got your reliable, go-to pizza parlors. But sometimes we find ourselves in an unknown realm (like the West Side marina at 3am—don’t ask), hungry for a slice. Fear not. This app will recommend the best pizza nearby, and also suggest “pilgrimages” to holy sites for those who seek enlightenment through piping-hot cheese.
Winter is still coming... any day now, and you can’t stop it. So you’re going to need an overcoat. And a scarf. And long sleeves. For 70% off at Elie Tahari. Don’t say we didn’t warn you.
