Making date night plans can be hard. More often than not we find ourselves wanting something more interesting than the basic dinner and a movie. This is especially true if you and your partner have been together for a while. Don’t end up in a date night rut. Instead, plan a romantic sunset sail and a meal with Harbor Line Cruises and Craven Restaurant (Formerly Magnolia Restaurant).

Le Diner En Blanc celebrated its 7th year in NYC with a glorious picnic in Lincoln Center’s historic courtyard. Guests of the event arrived decked out in all white creating an endless sea of chic, from the historic steps of the Opera to beyond the bandshell. Invitations to the party are the most coveted on the New York social calendar, and for good reason, it is a fabulous experience. To be surrounded by like minded individuals focused only on merriment is a rare occasion and one we should all take advantage of. Adding the appeal is the exclusivity of the guest list. Entry is only granted to a precious few thousand as many more join the expanding wait list, hoping for their chance to enjoy the festivities. If you are fortunate enough to be extended an invitation you won’t know where the party is until the last possible moment. The party’s location is a closely guarded secret and it differs each year and is only revealed to reveler hours before the kickoff. Diner en Blanc is like no other as the guests provide their own atmosphere. Each table setting is curated by the attendees, who bring their own tables chairs and centerpieces. This concept allows for a tremendous creative effort as guests build elaborate setups complete with lighting and luxurious plating.

Overall: The best kitschy dinner and show you didn’t know you needed to experience.

On Thursday, we celebrated the two year anniversary of Sushi Roxx and the opening of its new show “Love Roxx.” The midtown east eatery, which is designed with animated Japanese wall décor, paper lanterns, and prominent hues of red, is the concept and dream of owner Jason Apfelbaum. Along with the help of his talented, theater-trained wait staff, Apfelbaum has created a space where he says they are “not in the restaurant business,” but rather in “the feeling business.” And currently, that feeling is all about love.

Location: 40 Bowden Square, Southampton, NY 11968

Cuisine: Mexican

Best Dish: Robalo Rayados (Striped Bass) Enchilada is not your typical enchilada. Union Cantina serves it up as a deconstructed style with a few layers of the soft enchilada mixed with a crispy tostada style shell and flavors including queso blanco cheese, cucumber, avocado and their house enchilada sauce, which make this decadent dish worth biting into and saving all your room.
