The weekend has contracted March Madness.
PERKS
1 New Perk
Now that the links have thawed, spring is springing, and you can venture outside without a parka over your
parka, Perks is bringing you an invite and $25 credit to McBirdie, an online golf shopping club launching in
late March with golfing gear on sale for up to 70% off. Start daydreaming, people.

THE FIXE IS IN
Four-Course Caviar at Petrossian
The caviar gurus at Petrossian are celebrating their 25th year in the business with a four-course prix fixe
(for an unusually friendly $90) with the precious roe worked into everything from the appetizers to the
coffee. Thus taking things right to the limit of too much of a good thing.
- 411:
- Mar 11, $90, The Petrossian, 182 W 58th St (at Seventh Ave), 212-245-2214
SALE-ING
Steven Alan's Deal of Deals
The plaid capital of New York has been marking down fall/winter gear up to 75% off since November, but they
just added an extra 25% on top of whatever's already marked down, leading to the rare spectacle of the $40
button-down, along with backup items from Rag & Bone, Engineered Garments and Quoddy Boots—in case all
that snow tries to stage a comeback.
- 411:
- Through Mar 14, 11am-7pm (6pm Sunday), Steven Alan, 465 Amsterdam Ave, 212-595-8451
RETIREMENT PLAN
Stockings and Bonds Poker Tournament
This weekend-long Atlantic City tournament is tempting New Yorkers south with $500 buy-ins, in-game
massages, a players-only after-party and a seat at the World Series of Poker for whoever wins. (Also, a sack
full of money.) Just think of it as your second performance-based bonus.

Begins Mar 13, Caesar's Atlantic
City, 2100 Pacific Ave, Atlantic City, 609-348-4411
UD HOOKUP: We've got a comped buy-in for some lucky card shark. Drop us a line if you want it.
BACK ROOMING
The Birth of Rock Room NY
Starting this weekend, if you venture behind the formerly mild-mannered Bar Baresco, you'll find a brand-new
marble-hued mini-club, packed with whiskey bottles, mini-pizzas and the owner's model friends. In other
words, no one will be here for the wine.
- 411:
- At Bar Baresco, 191 Seventh Ave (between 21st and 22nd), 212-675-5935
VAMPIRE WEEKEND
The Lost Boys at the Tribeca Grand
In honor of the dearly departed Mr. Haim, the Tribeca Grand is screening his finest work: the two-Corey'd
vampire hair-spray epic, Lost Boys. Bring your Wayfarers and, if you've got it, some holy water.
Feldman, wherever you are, stay safe...
- 411:
- Mar 14, 8:30pm, Tribeca Grand Hotel, 2 Avenue of the Americas (at Houston St), 877-519-6600
BOX LUNCH
PB&J Italian Ice at Led Zeppole
In the interest of recreating every last detail from your childhood as a Coney Island carnie, the East
Village pastry makers have whipped up an Italian ice with peanut butter and grape jelly. The only downside:
you can't cut off the crusts.
