Have you been to 48 Nights yet? I haven’t either. (What’s wrong with us?) We got word that this week’s chef is Kent Rathbun of Abacus, Jasper’s, and Blue Plate. Want to go? Check here for reservations.
In nightlife news, the W Hotel has revamped their Living Room Bar and the unveiling is tonight. I’ve always preferred this bar to the Ghostbar upstairs, and they are having events all week long to promote the new look. They tell me the bar looks totally different now, with an oversized black plush sofa as the focal point and a wall made of cowhide hats. I’m more interested in the food (as usual) and really like the sound of the new bar menu (think polenta fritters and short rib paninis).
Tony Bennett was amazing last night. Jason Heid tells us all about it on FrontRow, but if you were there, I’d love to hear your thoughts. A reader emailed me late last night to tell me about seeing David Sedaris. He describes it this way: “Alternately profane, disgusting and hilariously cold-hearted, the guy puts on a good show.” Wish I could have been two places at once.
As always, find more of today’s events here.
