8/17 – 8/23: Three new Brooklyn openings, my favorite frozen cocktails, and how to get $100 Olivia Dean tickets.

Where I go to be alone in New York, from wine bars you can read in to dinners better eaten solo.

8/10 – 8/16: Corn is the theme of this newsletter. Plus: a new vinyl bar, the pop-up pizza you need, and my trip to Maine.

The coastal Maine trip I’ve been taking since I was a kid, now with better bakeries: everything from Kennebunkport to Portland.

My first Substack Best Sellers party, a love letter to The Snail and Shelter Island, and my increasingly busy self-employed summer.

8/3 – 8/9: New in the West Village, Gem Wine is back, and the parks and restaurants to listen to live music outdoors.

Tiny, brownstone-lined, and slowly becoming the neighborhood everyone wants to live in.

7/27 – 8/2: A new raw bar opening, a week of guest chefs, and 50 years of the Union Square Greenmarket.

Every garden, backyard, and hidden patio I’ve wanted to sit in this summer, mapped and marked for you.

7/20 – 7/26: A new Thai spot from Ugly Baby, dance party in a museum courtyard, a chicken salad sandwich collab, and tomato specials in season.
