••• Tribeca is well represented in New York Magazine’s Best of New York issue: “Best Deli Plate” (Kutsher’s Tribeca), “Best Cocktail Bar” (Silver Lining), “Best Jazz Show” (“The Checkout” at 92YTribeca), “Best Chawanmushi” (Brushstroke), “Best Kiddie Gym” (eXerBlast), “Best Teen Hangout” (7eventytwo—or is it 72?—at the Church Street School for Music and Art), “Teaching Centers” (Downtown Dance Factory), “Dresses (Office)” (Annelore), and “Best Used Kids Furniture” (Recrib, which was founded by Tribecans). But then there’s this: “Erase those clichés from your mind with a visit to Boerum Hill’s Flavor Paper, whose products line the Tribeca Steve Madden boutique and the upcoming Wythe Hotel in Williamsburg.” Italics mine: Broadway between Prince and Spring is pretty squarely Soho. Also, Il Matto was listed for best martini, even though the restaurant has been White & Church for a while now. When I read the print version I’ll probably find more—the online version is a bit of a jumble.

••• UPDATE: I missed a few—Best Hybrid Workout (Bari Studio), Best Downscale Beauty Mecca (Duane Reade Wall Street), Best One-Stop Family Fun (Pier 25).

••• The New Yorker has a short story by Donald Antrim that’s set at a book party in Tribeca. Or at least that’s what the magazine’s fiction-related Twitter feed said; I don’t have access to The New Yorker’s website. I probably could because I subscribe to the print version, but do I really need to not read The New Yorker twice a week? Anyway, you can read a Q&A with Antrim about it.

A call to the restaurant-bar finds the number disconnected. So get down there and grab those flat-screen TVs if you’re in the market.” [Note: See comments for why the number is disconnected.]
