We were chowing down at P.J. Carney's in midtown, negating everything we had worked off in sweat and pain at NYAC across the street.

Upstairs at Kingswood.Photo: Youngna Park Up until now, Kingswood has been telling people that its small downstairs lounge is only open for private parties, as UrbanDaddy pointed out when it declared the room its “new go-to party spot.” We’ve heard that this will change after Fashion Week.

1) Firefly: We profess to have no idea as to who is behind new Nolita restaurant Firefly, or what the concept of the place is. A close look at the menu posted in the window reveals entrees like a heritage pork chop, peppercorn-crusted tuna and a roasted lamb porterhouse, all priced in the high 20s... Read More

It's one song away from Bennigans.Photo: Melissa Hom We’ve heard more than one person refer to Kingswood as the new Freemans, and there are similarities: A greeter in an anachronistic hat, a bucolic vibe care of the butterflies on the ceiling, and drinks in which Glenfiddich is “massaged” by figs.
