This is the last weekend for miles.
Your Perks: 1) Black diamond stud earrings. Surely you know someone who deserves this. 2) Watches made with just a simple yet elegant dial and a leather band. Simple looks good on you. 3) Leather shoes from Versace. Outfit: completed.
Orbit Room closed in the spring. Which was sad. Now, the classic bar is back with a Tempest vet to handle the drinks and a new rotating menu of food that you can eat. Mondays = meatballs. Tuesdays = tacos. Wednesdays = chicken and waffles. Thursdays = tiki. Weekends = pizza. You = going there.
Azalea. It’s a weird choice for happy-hour-ing, we know. But hear us out. This Thursday, there’ll be sunglasses galore from Classic Specs and appetizers from Straw like buffalo wings and donut cheeseburgers. Plus: gratis wine. Bottom line is, you’re really glad you just figuratively heard us out.
Pretend it’s Friday. You’re looking to be happy, so you head to Cockscomb to try their new lunch. You order the pork belly sandwich. Or the bacon-wrapped hot dog. Or the foie gras burger. And you’re happy. (Please note: this scenario also works on Mondays, Tuesdays, Wednesdays and Thursdays.)
You’ve got less than 48 hours this weekend to drink beer while sifting through discounted outdoorsy items like backpacks, chairs and gear at Alite Designs’ annual warehouse sale. Anything there could make a great holiday gift. Meaning: the stakes have never been higher. Just kidding. They almost always are.
To celebrate the launch of their new cookbook, Mission Chinese Food is hosting a special brunch (involving malted rye bagels with Russ & Daughters smoked and cured fish) as well as a special dinner (involving beef jerky fried rice and scallop sashimi). Mission Chinese, please publish books more often. Thanks.
