A friend and I met at Rosemary\u2019s on Greenwich Avenue. Since I arrived first, I ordered Negronis, his favorite aperitif. Forget that. Rosemary\u2019s serves only beer and wine. But what wine. One of the owners suggested we try Terlaner since we were having some prosciutto and focaccia followed by the linguini with preserved lemon (what\u2019s that?) and for dessert, yummy affogato. A lovely early supper.<\/p>\n

Grazie is a cozy, well run restaurant steps away from the Metropolitan Museum of Art. Getting a dinner reservation near the Met at this time of year is almost impossible. We settled on 5 p.m. so we could have plenty of time to get to The Met’s New York Baroque Incorporated. It was a mostly French evening. It began with the music of Jean-Baptiste Lully, an Italian born composer who worked at Louis XIV\u2019s court. It was followed by Jean-Philippe Rameau\u2019s Les Indes Galantes and George Frideric Handel\u2019s Suite from Terpsichore. The music was wonderful, the period dancing so-so and the incorrect Met directions frustrating.<\/p>\n

Judson Memorial Church is on a roll. It’s thrilling to be in a packed church. One of the main reason is the music. Judson has always had a strong musical tradition and the not so new music director, Henco Espag lives up to the tradition.<\/p>\n
