There used to be a Smiths night at Sway in nyc. There should be one in the burg in Brooklyn. Can someone make this happen? There’s got to be an underpopulated bar somewhere around here.
Viva Smiths Sundays circa 2007. Manhattan Inn late night on Saturdays comes close, but it’s no Misshapes/Beatrice-era dance party.
“STILL LIFE”

A Poet and a Commandant walk into a Shanty and order a gin martini… Two of the more distinguished gin bottles to grace shelves across the five boroughs belong to NY Distilling Company and are produced by a man named Allan and 1,000 liter pot still named Carl. Allan Katz, co-founded the distillery with Tom Potter, also co-founder of Brooklyn Brewery and his brother Bill Potter. The trio come from a bartending background, which is perhaps why their distillery is also home to The Shanty, a warm but classic bar where patrons can enjoy all of the great spirits, not just gin, as well as an impressive view of Carl and a wall of wood barrels stacked high and full with the companies first Straight Rye.
You know Greek yogurt is having its moment when an artisan in Brooklyn is making it from an old family recipe, downtown mixologists are using it in a cocktail and chefs are pairing it with fried brussels sprouts and green cauliflower.

Related: I can name at least 3 places in Brooklyn that are serving those brussels sprouts.

I am so excited for the NY version of Whiskey Soda Lounge to open near Pok Pok Ny. Who cares about two hour waits when you can have this beautiful, herb-laden concoction.
My friend Jonathan is really great and needs a roommate.
Even if you don’t, this is worth a watch.
Dank Williamsburg apartment somehow available long enough for this adorable man to write a song about it. Approximating location based on b-roll…likely on Hope Street and Havemeyer.

Where to Get It: Nitehawk Cinema
We don’t think they do this at the AMC in Times Square: At Williamsburg’s ultra-hip Nitehawk movie theater, drinkers can get an off-menu Martinez (a combination of gin, sweet vermouth, and Maraschino liqueur that some say is the forefather of the mordern-day martini) that’s been barrel-aged for six weeks.
