Sushi by Scratch NYC

We’d like to interrupt this ode to Rome with a 17-course omakase dinner, plus a bonus aperitivo hour – just because. Sushi by Scratch, a concept restaurant that’s crushed it in Austin, Chicago and Denver, now wants to prove that if they can make it in NYC, they can make it anywhere. Atmosphere A certain tone is set when you enter through a hidden basement door beneath a nail salon. You almost feel like you need a secret password as…

Location Rosewood makes a strong entrance in Amsterdam by revitalizing a known monument, the storied former Palace of Justice.…

Lauren Sánchez’s Bachelorette Party

If you’re going to bid farewell to single life, you might as well do it in style. And Lauren Sánchez did just that, trading tequila shots and sashes for something infinitely more chic: a long weekend in Paris. Rumor has it the pre-wedding festivities included designer shopping, quiet corners at the city’s top restaurants, and a champagne-laced cruise down the Seine. But the true star of the weekend? The hotel. Sánchez shared photos with her crew at Cheval Blanc Paris,…

Frena

There’s a restaurant that’s just been doing its thing since it opened last year, and doing it all under the radar. That’s not to mean that every table isn’t packed and the crowd’s not good.

Atmosphere Next time you’re in the Theater District or the area once known as Hell’s Kitchen, you do have a choice of a restaurant that’s more than just for…

Made-To-Order on Delta

Long gone are the days when “airplane food” was used to describe anything less than gourmet. (Okay, that might be an overstatement, but airplane food has improved dramatically over the past few years). Some airlines now hire renowned chefs to design their menus, and others are offering the possibility to pre-order meals you might actually like. Wouldn’t it be wonderful if entrees were not limited to incredibly hot, and mushy chicken or pasta? Can you imagine a beverage selection that…
