6 Exciting Things To Do & Eat In NYC Between August 11th and August 15th
Check out these new restaurants, pop-ups, and special events all around NYC from August 11th to August 16th.
We’ve reached the period of August where the streets are emptier than usual and no deodorant feels effective anymore. But that’s not to say there aren’t a couple of great things going on for anyone without plans. From a free concert at the Brooklyn Museum to Court Street Grocers’ glorious BLT with Jersey tomatoes, use this guide to plan your NYC summer week.
One of our favorite pop-up projects of the year, Dacha 46, will be serving their Eastern European food at Ursula in Crown Heights on Friday, August 13th. Stop by from 4-8pm for chicken and celery root skewers, sweet corn cherry plombir cake, and khachapuri pelmeni filled with four different cheeses and topped with salmon roe. Keep an eye out for more pop-ups from Ursula and Dacha in the future.

Once again, NYC summer weather has decided that no deodorant will suffice. If you want some good old-fashioned air-conditioned fun, check out a new karaoke bar in Koreatown called Ms. Kim’s. It’s a bit more upscale than other places where you might belt “Torn,” by Natalie Imbruglia in a soundproof private room, with cocktails and Korean and Japanese bar snacks. Not feeling karaoke?
