GOLDEN DINER GETS THE PRIZE
I love the ones at Caliza, and I know many around here are devoted to Los Tacos No. 1, but Eater in its roundup of the best breakfast burritos in the city gave it to Golden Diner, Samuel Yoo’s modern diner in Two Bridges: “The non-traditional burrito is made with ultra-crisp hash browns, cheesy scrambled eggs, and a thick schmear of refried black beans. For the full experience, add sausage: The sturdy, gray links might be the best breakfast meats you taste this year.” (Pictured above, their Chinatown egg and cheese sando.)

MORE CLAIMS AGAINST TRIBECA ART ADVISOR
Artnews has more on the court battle involving art advisor Lisa Schiff, who has been accused of fraud and running a Ponzi scheme by two of her former clients Richard Grossman and Candace Barasch. “Some 50 new claims against Schiff, as well as a full inventory of works still in her possession, are among the latest revelations to come to light.”

IT’S NOT YOUR IMAGINATION
Curbed has a story that says the city’s rat population has gone up by 50 percent in the past decade and now comes in at 3 million — and there are more feral cats too. “The rats are multiplying because our city is addicted to putting trash out in bags on the street. And the feral-cat problem grew when free spaying and neutering services were paused during COVID and now, with more evictions and financial pressures driving owners to give up their pets, shelters are reaching capacity across the city.”

A TREASURE IN TRIBECA
The Times, in its “Where I Ate in New York City” newsletter, shouts out to Brasserie Fouquet’s New York in the new hotel on Greenwich and Desbrosses. “This Parisian import is the closest you can get to dining on the Champs-Élysées without actually hopping on a plane, and the proof is in the Dover sole meunière. N’hésitez pas.”
