It looks like indoor dining at 25% might well start end of September.  Meanwhile, we've been eating outdoors at several of our favorite local places for over a month now (approx 2-3x/week) and enjoying it.

Until DeBlasio changes his mind, or doesn't get a plan in place...again.

And here we go again.  We have reservations for 2 of our favorite places this Sunday (yes, Valentine's Day but, at 25%, our neighborhood place is gonna be all locals and not amateur hour) and then Wednesday.  We've gotten our 1st doses over a week ago, so we're a little less fidgety.

How was it? I'll be up next week, back at Le Bernardin.

Given the context (again, a place we know well, is small -5 tables in use) it went very well.  It was great to go out for dinner again.  But, ask again on Thurs., as we’re going out on Wed eve with another couple to Park Side, a large old line place in Queens, where let’s just say that vigilance will be required.  It’s a different world there.
