This restaurant is for a special night out. The first trick is finding it – then ask to sit in the back at the sushi counter right in front of chef Kazuo, if you can. Order the omakase, and while you're at it, order a sake pairing too!

CAFE MOTO

In my opinion, it was the catalyst for a design revolution in our city. It's a beautiful room, and the menu is by this talented young chef, Joaquin Melo. My favorite place to sit is the left side of the bar as you walk in. It faces a large plate glass window that frames a staircase where people walk down from the subway platform. It's very cinematic, and if it happens to be snowing and you're waiting for someone special to come down those stairs, it's a perfect New York moment.

I just came across Victoria Gin, which I love because of its bold flavor profile. When I drink a gin, I want it to taste like gin, not vodka.
