There is so much to love about the holiday season in NYC. Those charming holiday markets that pop up all over town, the dreamy window displays at Bergdorf’s, ice skating rinks, the most famous Christmas tree in all the land… We take it for granted, but there’s a reason so many tourists come to NYC for the holidays. This week, show your loyalty to the city that never sleeps and enjoy a dinner with Daniel Boulud, free macarons, and the most posh T-giving dinner you’ve ever had. We assure you, it’s better than sleeping in your high school bedroom.
11/22 Lobster Cooking with Chef Daniel Boulud
Need we say more? One of *the* best chefs in the world - let alone NYC - is coming to Samsung 837 to demonstrate how to cook the cantankerous crustacean. You’ll even be able to sample some of his dish! RSVP, but get there early, as it is first come first serve.
11/23 Thanksgiving Eve Open Bar Party at Avenue
Start your holiday weekend off in spectacular style with an open bar party at Chelsea A-list haunt Avenue, where Kim Kardash, Kate Upton, and other celebs have been known to frolic.
11/24 2016 Macy’s Thanksgiving Day Parade
Not a Thanksgiving tradition for nothing, the Thanksgiving parade is something you have to see at least once during your NYC years - or every year. Random quibble: You know that episode of Friends where they are watching the parade and get locked out of the apartment? That couldn’t have happened since they lived in Greenwich Village, and the parade goes only down to Macy’s Herald Square.
11/24 3 Course Thanksgiving Dinner with Cocktails at Green Fig at YOTEL
Thanksgiving gets a sophisticated, even sexy (!) update when you spend it at Green Fig at YOTEL. You’ll get an haute cuisine 3 course dinner by Executive Chef Gabriel Israel (a Boulud alum), plus 2 seasonal cocktails that will have you feeling very merry indeed.
11/27 Complimentary Macaron Tasting
Delicate, colorful, irresistible, and whimsical - everyone loves a macaron, unless you’re Sauron. Learn about the history of the macaron and the baking process from Chef Dana Loia at Bloomingdale’s, and of course, taste a few of the delicious creations as well.
