New York / Restaurant

Paris in Brooklyn, etc. I have to try hard not to say 'Garçon.' But either way, 'monsieur' would be more appropriate; proper French waitstaff, proper French food.

New York / Shop

Super nice mens- & womens-wear. Kind German girl behind the counter most days. Good boots & great windows.

New York / Cafe

Daytime café, nighttime bar. Nothing stronger than 30-proof. Delicious beer and really good wine. Kind people run & staff the place. The garden in the Summer is perfect. I make near-daily visits.

New York / Shop

The operators of the Peter Pan bakery make the best donuts I've ever tasted. This place is charming to its core. Decor and presentation: circa 1971 & virtually unchanged since.

New York / Designer

“Today, luxury is not lived in the same way as before. Today, luxury is not perceived as it once was. Today we experience two luxuries that do not speak the same language and do not live within the same values."
