🍦 COCKTAIL SOFT SERVE: Unnecessary

New York City, USA

Unnecessary is the new ice cream shop from the team behind Double Chicken Please. Created by GN Chan, Faye Chen, Frank Zheng, and acclaimed ice cream chef Yu Lee, the concept transforms cocktails and other beverages into inventive soft serve, with a menu that includes flavors like Dirty Martini, Garibaldi, Penicillin, Paloma, and Matcha Grasshopper alongside rotating seasonal specials.

🎴 TAROT CARD READER: Employees Only

New York City, USA

Complete with a tarot card reader, Employees Only is a guaranteed good time on a night out. The throwback to Prohibition-era America is a popular dinner destination and even more popular drinking location once the music is turned up and the lights dim. But past midnight is truly when things get fun as industry folk take to the not-so-hidden secret hangout to let off some steam.

☎️ PHONE BOOTH: Please Don't Tell

New York City, USA

Accessed through a phone booth inside Crif Dogs, Please Don't Tell is a speakeasy known for its innovative and playful cocktails. A popular watering hole, reservations are recommended and make sure to try the snacks that go well beyond just bar bites.

🌇 64 FLOORS UP: Overstory

New York City, USA

Overstory is one of those rare spots that actually manages to live up to the hype, mostly because it’s hard to argue with a martini served 64 floors above Wall Street.

🍳 SALTED EGG YOLK CHICKEN SANDWICHES: Double Chicken Please

New York City, USA

We love well-rounded spots that have a bit of everything – Double Chicken Please not only serves cocktails and beers, but a menu of savory snacks and finger foods. As the name would suggest, we definitely recommend grabbing either the hot honey or salted egg yolk chicken sandwiches.
