Why this night
You said Nadia rolls her eyes at the roses-and-prix-fixe routine, but that she's never once turned down a view or a horn section. So the night runs on altitude and live music — the skyline at dinner, jazz behind a hidden door, and the city from a rooftop to end it.
Don't forget the small things
Book the twelfth floor early
Valentine's tables at Mister A's go weeks out.
The hidden door
Prohibition is behind the law-office door on Fifth — just push.
A coat for the rooftops
The night starts and ends in open air, twelve-plus floors up.
Dinner twelve floors up, live jazz behind an unmarked door, a rooftop nightcap. February 14 without the roses-by-the-dozen routine. The OpenTable link below is live.
