TWO WAYS TO CELEBRATE NEW YEAR’S EVE AT AÑEJO
Ring in the new year in style at Añejo, the popular new Mexican restaurant at Church and Walker. From 5 p.m. to 8 p.m., order from the regular menu or go for the special $42 prix fixe starring cochinita pibil (slow-cooked suckling pig)—and then call it a night or head off to a party. Or join the fiesta from 10 p.m. to 2 a.m., where there will be an open bar, passed bites, a midnight toast, and party favors. Call 212-920-6270 or email Añejo at rsvp@anejotribeca.com. Sponsored.
