As the final school bell rings and summer break begins, thousands of kids from Harlem and the South Bronx will trade in classrooms for the ultimate playground. The 480 acres of sports fields, trails, and waterfront green space that make up Randall’s Island Park. Since 1998, the Randall’s Island Park Alliance (RIPA) has transformed the…
Aptly called the Lincoln Center Night Market, the “outdoor food emporium,” as the destination is referred to in an official press release, is open every night from Wednesdays through Sundays starting at 5pm through 10pm. The market will be in place now through August 10, excluding July 4.
A number of vendors have already been announced, including Harlem Seafood Soul (lobster rolls! Waffle skewers! Mac and cheese bites!), Japanese purveyor Yakitori Totto, Mexican destination Maya’s Snack Bar, Haitian restaurant Bunnan and Cocotazo, a Puerto Rican eatery that, according to the release, “feels like a warm hug.”
In addition to the already announced food providers, visitors will get to order food from a tent with rotating options that align with each week’s programming at the center.
Not part of the new market but still an exciting food-related update: Joe Coffee will be available from Wednesdays through Saturdays at Lincoln Center starting 9am to 5pm, the perfect fuel for the hundreds of other events that will take over Lincoln Center as part of its third annual Summer for the City Festival, which runs through August 10 and includes over 200 free or choose-what-you-pay happenings that span a variety of topics, genres and locations.
You can read through the entire calendar right here but standouts include virtual reality experience The Dream Machine, which features five distinct game-like interactive performances; a night of opera and drag with two superstar queens from RuPaul’s Drag Race, Monét X Change and Sapphira Cristál; and a silent disco night as part of India Week with DJ Rajuju Brown.

Few things are as festive as gathering a group of pals to gab over a large-format cocktail, whether it’s a big ol’ bowl of rum punch, an oversized pitcher of vodka-splashed lemonade or a big-batch jug of party sangria. And now at the Brooklyn Chop House—a steakhouse chainlet with locations in Times Square and the Financial District—you and your best boozehound pals can experience a new shareable creation called “The Brooklyn Tree House.”
But this “tree house” is less lumber and more liquor: the head-turning cocktail tower allows bargoers to select three different cocktails, frozen or mixed, for their own custom 12-cocktail display. Among the drink options are a Lemon Drop, a Lychee Martini, a Perfect Margarita, a Spicy Watermelon Cooler, a Cucumber Mint Cooper, a Sour Diesel (D’USSÉVSOP Cognac, fresh lemon juice, peach schnapps, grapefruit juice and agave syrup) or one flavor of frosé (lychee, peach, strawberry-watermelon).
And, along with being a party-starting drink order, since most of the cocktails on the restaurant’s bar menu are individually priced between $17 and $20 a pop, $95 for a twelve-drink tower is a steal (and is further proof that it is still very much possible to get a quality cocktail for $10 and under in New York City). Plus, unlike those one-drink-and-done punch bowls or party jugs, the novelty item caters to a variety of preferences and allows everyone to order whatever individual cocktail will best whet their whistle.
Check out “The Brooklyn Tree House” from Brooklyn Chop House below and then corral your cocktail-loving friends to try out one for yourselves. Drink responsibly!
