In broad daylight on a side street or by the light of the silvery moon on a rooftop, dining and drinking alfresco in NYC is an experience not to be missed. ere’s something about summer that brings out the creativity in local chefs and mixologists and drives them to excellence. And consider this: With the skyline spread out before you or even just an intimate piece of it, there’s no denying where you are. So, make the most of the weather, the cuisine and the locale.
1 HGU ROOFTOP BY JOHN DELUCIE
If you were to close your eyes and taste Chef John DeLucie’s cool shrimp ceviche, you would swear that you were dining by the Atlantic Ocean in Montauk on Long Island.
But don’t close them. At this Midtown Manhattan aerie, the Empire State Building is on the horizon.

2 PIGGYBACK BAR
As a hip destination, Jersey City trends hot, and this Asian gastropub from “Top Chef ” alumna Leah Cohen is one reason why. Here, you can break the heat with a frosty beer, a spicy burger and views of the Lower Manhattan skyline that send chills up and down the spine.

3 THE CANTOR ROOF GARDEN BAR
This summer, art lovers raise bourbon-andwhite-peach “Poptails,” served with prosecco, and toast Alicja Kwade’s “ParaPivot” installation on the roof of the Metropolitan
Museum. As you gaze at the artwork and Central Park beyond it, you will hear the music of the spheres.

And The Winner Is …
I have no crystal ball when it comes to the Tony Awards. Who will take home the shiny prize on June 9, when the awards are handed out at Radio City Music Hall, is anybody’s guess, mine included. But I can tell you what I enjoyed during the 2018–2019 Broadway season: the plays, the musicals, the performances that moved me and are worthy of your attention.
