The weekend is working for the weekend.
THURSDAY SUBTERRANEAN SWILLING
Chloe 81 Is Open
Your latest underground drinking den isn't visible from street level. Just find your way down some ratty
steps and into a shiny, white-tiled cocktail station, with red booths, downtown hipsters and stiff drinks.
It captures the subway look perfectly...but thankfully they went a different direction with the smell.
- 411:
- 411: Chloe 81, now open, 81 Ludlow (between Delancey and Broome), 212-677-0067
THURSDAY SALE-ING
Yves Saint Laurent Sale
The luxury giant is offering 75 percent off, with stock replenished daily. There are great suits and shirts
for the taking, so it's worth braving the melee of bloodthirsty handbag-seekers.
- 411:
- 411: Starting at 8am, Sept 11-12, 123 W. 18th St (between 6th and 7th Ave), 4th Floor
FRIDAY HOP STOPS
NY Craft Beer Week
This local microbrew-fest spans five days, nine pub crawls, almost a hundred small labels at various stops
throughout the city and one well-seasoned barbecue. It should be enough to last you the two weeks until
Oktoberfest.

SATURDAY TEQUILA
Free Margaritas at Los Dados
For their one-year anniversary, Los Dados is offering up a free margarita with each meal to anyone polite
enough to mention their birthday. Of course, if you want to be really polite, you could always get them a
present...

SUNDAY PICKLING
Eighth Annual International Pickle Day
This two-block celebration of all things pickle will have specimens from all around the world, like pickled
hot peppers, Chinese scallions and artichoke hearts. There will also be exclusive chocolate pickle truffles
from Roni Sue for anyone with a salty-sweet streak, or anyone with a particularly vicious pickle jones.

MONDAY HOTELERY
The $20 Hotel Room
If you're the plan-ahead kind—and you plan on passing through Europe in a few months—you
might want to check out a promo from Leading Hotels of the World that lets you get a room for
$19.28...provided you pre-pre-preregister now. It's a small price to pay for...well, for anything.

now, in case your fall suits are getting threadbare. We recommend thin lapels, thick wool and a color that
