Issue 25: NYC Special 🗽

This week, we’re shifting the lens — turning our eye to New York City while keeping you close to home with everything happening across the Hamptons.

Our NYC Special (the first of two parts) is filled with cosmopolitan fun and flair, courtesy of our contributors and partners.

From Gibney’s Up Close dance series and our culture editor’s take on E.B. White’s Here Is New York, to Yogeswari’s healthy Manhattan eats and SpinShack’s Nolita consignment fix, we’re exploring the city’s creative pulse — as well as the spots that tempt the palate.

Sag Harbor’s Sen introduces us to sensational omakase on the Lower East Side, Noyac’s Bell & Anchor dines old-school at Le Veau d’Or, Southampton’s Barryville General finds its rhythm below 14th Street, and Water Mill’s Alpina lends its pastries to an uptown Swiss coffee chain.

And back at home, the Hamptons scene keeps humming — Kidd Squid celebrates Sagtoberfest, ARF, Rosie’s, and Sagaponack Farm Distillery host can’t-miss events; Loaves & Fishes and the Bridgehampton Inn stir up fall flavors with inventive cocktails and a Coconut Crusted Flounder recipe; while Marilee's Farmstand, Dreamy Coffee, Lazypoint, and Windswept each remind us why local love never goes out of season.

So whether you’re slipping into a city spot or settling by a Bridgehampton fireplace, this issue brings both worlds together — New York and the Hamptons, in full conversation.

As always, we focus on the now — what’s local, lively, and worth the shuffle. With every recommendation shaped by locals and trusted insiders, these moments are as real as they are remarkable.

Tap, swipe, flip — and explore. Save the finds that inspire you. Share the ones that will delight someone you love.
