Re: Going to NYC - recommendations?
Enjoy a cigar at The Carnegie Club - 156 W 56th St between 6th and 7th Ave.
Want a uniquely New York experience? Go to The Carnegie Club on a Saturday night. At 8:30 and again at 10:30, a singer named Steven Maglio, backed by an 11-piece orchestra, does Sinatra covers. How "New York" is that?
NOTE: There is a dress code. A suit would be appropriate, but perhaps not necessary. I would not try to walk in wearing jeans and sneakers. There is a $40 per person cover charge for the show and a two-drink minimum. If you bring your own cigars, there's a $10 cutting fee. If you buy their cigars, be prepared to pay a lot for them. They accept reservations.
Want to really go all-out? One of Sinatra's favorite restaurants is two blocks away from The Carnegie Club. It's called Patsy's Italian Restaurant - 236 W 56th St between Broadway & 8th Ave. Why not have dinner at Patsy's, then hit the show.
It won't be an inexpensive night out. But I bet it'll be a night you won't soon forget.
