Good morning. René Magritte made a painting of this day in 1956, a Surrealist depiction of a crescent moon hanging in a tree, rather than in the sky behind it. It’s a quiet, powerful work. The moon disrupts our sense of depth and leaves us unsettled, as if in a house of mirrors, as if…
If you’re having dinner at Gramercy Tavern or Union Square Cafe, you might want to save room for dessert at Caffè Panna nearby. Hallie Meyer — whose father, Danny Meyer, owns both restaurants — is ready with an affogato sundae with crunchies, drizzles and cream at this, her new ice cream parlor. The neatly tiled…
Suzuki, an izakaya restaurant sharing a space with Satsuki, a high-end sushi bar, is offering lunch to go. Just inside the doorway on the ground floor there’s a counter selling bento boxes that feature generous portions of teriyaki salmon, fried or grilled chicken, glazed eel, beef stir-fry, a meatloaf-style burger or a poke bowl, all…
Good morning. “That old September feeling,” Wallace Stegner wrote in “Angle of Repose,” his 1971 novel about the myth of the American West, “…another fall, another turned page: There was something of jubilee in that annual autumnal beginning, as if last year’s mistakes had been wiped clean by summer.” Which is to say, it’s time…

It’s difficult, now, to remember a time before the frozen dessert beverage. Those of us who grew up with Frappuccinos and Coffee Coolattas can’t imagine shopping malls without them; they are woven into the high-fructose fabric of America. Nearly two decades before Starbucks first opened in 1971, a trio of enterprising young roommates in Manhattan…
It’s almost impossible to walk with single-minded purpose down Main Street in Flushing, Queens. Everything entices: a cart selling hot roasted chestnuts still in their shells; a poster promising dried sea cucumbers, dark and warty; a bakery where spider-cracked tea eggs steep in inky broth in a rice cooker on the counter. Resist temptation, and…
The first-ever drug regimen to blunt acute peanut allergies in children should be approved, experts told a Food and Drug Administration committee on Friday, because the therapy has the potential to reduce the risk of life-threatening reactions and to improve patients’ lives. The new drug, called Palforzia and made by Aimmune Therapeutics, is an oral…
I tend to think of fall as the year’s busy season. But really it’s more accurate to think of it as the year’s crazy season, a cacophony of to-do lists, school orientations, last-minute online shopping, doctor’s appointments, after-work events, full-day conferences, weekend gatherings and overall mayhem, culminating in the one-two punch of Thanksgiving and Christmas.…
