Crowdsourcing ideas for a bday outing / experience for my boyfriend from folks who have been here longer than we have 😊

He likes: history, sports (mainly hockey and soccer), food (especially red meat), beer, travel

We are in lower Manhattan (and have done the standard touristy things) but happy to go wherever in the city / the general area! I really appreciate any suggestions 🙏🏻

Oops, great point! Ideally no more than ~$300 per person (assuming I would go with him) with some flex

Have you been to Fogo de chão across the MoMa? Great all you can eat Brazilian barbecue 🍖 The whole thing is quite an experience

They have those restaurants in so many cities. Not unique and the food isn’t great, IMO. There are so many better steakhouses in the city.

I’d recommend:
Keens
COTE (Korean, Michelin Star)
4 Charles Prime Rib (tiny spot in the West Village)
Gallaghers (old school)

Are you open to going Upstate?

like

Yes!

A couple thoughts:

1) take everyone to a show at The Comedy Cellar
2) take everyone to Sleep No More
3) take everyone for Korean BBQ at Michelin-starred Cote
4) do a tasting menu at The Musket Room

We do the first one often - love comedy!! I’ve been to Sleep No More but he hasn’t - thank you for all the awesome suggestions 😊

Biden Administration Tipping Point?

I’m starting to think the wheels are coming loose on the Biden administration train. The Delta variant is still eating up the news cycle and the idiotic back and forth on masks and Fauci’s nefarious plot/imminent sainthood are keeping most of the debate away from the simmering underlying issues.

My guess is that a year from now we’ll be looking at mid terms no longer defined by a pandemic response but by inflation, deficit, crime and immigration.
