First, there was whole roasted suckling pig. And it was good. Then the carnivorous chefs at the Breslin got
the bright idea to try duck. And it was good-er. Served for groups of eight to 12, the bird is glazed in
balsamic and accompanied by a myriad of sides. Also dessert. But you won’t have room.
Dark. Cold. Rainy. Perfect park weather if you’re in Nolita, where Openhouse has once again opened up
their annual indoor patch of grass known as Park Here. This year, there’ll be an “outdoor” series,
rotating food carts, BBQs, wine tastings and hammocks. Also, a 0.00% chance of snow.

MORE THAN A FEELING
Sleep No More: The Bar
Welcome to the McKittrick Hotel. Home to the creepy performance piece known as Sleep No More (you
know, the one with the Venetian masks and witch orgies). Also, a jazzy/David Lynch-ian theater bar that,
starting tomorrow, will be open post-show to the public. Perfect if your usual watering hole lacks naked
torch singers.
You could use a brief interlude from bacon and eggs. So allow us to suggest kung pao dumplings, now being
served (along with foodstuffs like Katz’s pastrami egg rolls and Pac-Man-shaped shrimp shumai) on a brunch
dim sum cart at RedFarm. ’80s arcade characters never tasted so good.
