Blow Hits the Streets of New York

This stuff really does blow.Photo: Daniel Maurer

Want some Blow? Last week the bodega across from Belcourt started dealing the stuff! Easy tiger, it’s not what you think— Blow, you see, is the latest in preposterously named energy products. Apparently the Vegas-based company isn’t sweating the fact that Cocaine was banned, because they’re packaging the white powder in “recreational user packs” (pictured here), “bricks,” and “vials,” and selling it on their Website Iloveblow.com complete with credit cards and mirrors (“I Love Blow” thongs and booty shorts, too!). Like anyone would be cheesy enough to go for this? Then again, we do know some folks who are going to love having the perfect fake-out container next time they go to Beatrice.

Sign Up for Secret Dinner Club's Weekend Time Warp

Twenties NYC: You weren't invited?Photo: courtesy the Dinner Club

This week's Ghetto Gourmet events are sold out, but you underground diners shouldn't fret. Instead, put on your most convincing eighth-century Baghdad caliph outfits and cop an invite to one of the "Arabian Nights" meals that'll be held in a Williamsburg loft on Friday and Saturday. The events are the latest dinner-and-dancing bashes inspired by hip historical scenes (fin de siècle Parisian parlors, twenties high-society New York) and thrown every few months by the founders of the Dinner Club: Hairdresser and antiques aficionado "Miss Amy" Burgess and chef "Miss Julia" Jaksic of Employees Only (and now the Beatrice). Previous events have featured Chinese wedding beds, chandeliers, even acrobats and swing bands, hence the $85 ticket price. This one promises to be just as lavish.

Head to Head, Round Two: The Loos at the Inns

Earlier this week we noted that Paul Sevigny's the Beatrice is shaping up to be the downtown set's own private Ye Waverly Inn. Only time will tell which of the historic, soon-to-officially-reopen West Village taverns will become the more chic destination. But at least you'll know what to expect from the bathrooms.

Paul Sevigny's ‘Top Secret’ Beatrice: Hipster Restaurant of the Season

How very glamorous.Photo: Yun Cee Ng

When we spoke to Paul Sevigny about his soon-to-open hipsteraunt (the second coming of onetime West Village speakeasy the Beatrice Inn), he at first told us "it's kind of top secret." (Doorman Angelo certainly wasn't letting us in on the secret when we tried to crash V magazine's party for Courtney Love there on Halloween night.) But after throwing down with the beautiful people at actor-jeweler Waris Ahluwalia's birthday bash last weekend, we can now let you in on the details of what looks to be the downtown set's answer to the revival of Waverly Inn.
