JUST ANNOUNCED: 

NYC’s Open Restaurant Program is an effort to implement a citywide multi-phase program to expand outdoor seating options for restaurants and bars to promote open space, enhance social distancing, and help them rebound in these difficult economic times.

NYC’s approach prioritizes geographic equity and allows us to reach the areas most impacted by COVID-19.

This program is designed to assist existing restaurants and bars that have been authorized by the Governor of the State of New York to re-open under Phase Two and want to use outdoor areas on a temporary basis. This application is only for restaurants and bars seeking permission to place outdoor seating in front of their establishment on the sidewalk and/or roadway. You do not need to apply to place outdoor seating on private property.

To learn more, please visit the NYC.gov website HERE.

Tickets will be sold at the event and attendees will have a chance to sample signature dishes from an impressive list of downtown destinations. Participating restaurants include: Adrienne’s Pizza Bar; Andaz Kitchen and Bar; ATRIO Wine Bar and Restaurant; Battery Gardens; Bavaria Bier Haus; Bay Room; Beckett’s Bar & Grill; Bill’s Bar & Burger; Blue Ribbon Bakery; Blue Smoke BPC; Bobby Van’s Steakhouse; Brushstroke; City Acres Market; Cowgirl Seahorse; Delmonico’s Restaurant; Eataly; Financier Patisserie; Harry’s Café; Harry’s Italian; Inatteso; Juice Brothers; The Ketch Brewhouse; Le District; Mad Dog & Beans Mexican Cantina; Manhatta; OBAO Water Street; PARM battery Park; Pier A Harbor House; Route 66 Smokehouse; Sprinkles Land; Stone Street Tavern; Suteishi Japanese Restaurant; The Capital Grille; The Dubliner; The Malt House; The Tuck Room; Ulysses’ Folk House; Underdog; Vintry Wine & Whiskey, and Wei West.

FiDi Families Insiders: The event includes music by The National Jazz Museum in Harlem-All Stars.

Once again, a photo contest will be taking place, encouraging attendees to post a photo of each of their food plates on Instagram, Twitter or Facebook, using the hashtag #DownIsWhatsUp to enter the contest. Clearly, the more photos (the more food you eat), the better your chances of winning a two-night stay for two at the Conrad New York. 

This fun food event is co-sponsored by the Fosun Group, which manages 28 Liberty Plaza and the Alliance for Downtown, which serves the Lower Manhattan community. 

Date: Tuesday, May 22nd (rain or shine)

Time: 11 am – 3 pm

Life is funny. A year ago I was celebrating 20 yea Life is funny. A year ago I was celebrating 20 years of calling NYC home. A year later, our family is on a crazy career adventure in Miami, with a lot of unknowns. 

But, we do know that we only get one life to live and jumping in feet first is the only way to live life to the fullest, at least in our minds 😂. 

We are already in love with the Miami weather, the happy people, the gorgeous beaches 🏝 and the day tripping way of life. We arrived in FL w a suitcase each and a mask 😷. Happy that we are surrounded by mask-wearers. Wasn’t sure what to expect. But, we will be back in NYC this summer. Lots of decisions to make between now and then. But also lots of fun and exploring over the next few months. 

The silver lining of the Covid world we live in is remote learning allows us to travel and say yes to new beginnings. Stay tuned for updates on the next chapter for our website, too.
