Tommy Cheese & Xanadu
This week I’m treating you to someone who has changed my life. My new cheese guy! And a spot in Bushwick you can definitely have a lot of fun at…
What’s more New York than having a cheese guy? A cheese guy that delivers to your door! I first met Tommy Cheese (I have no interest in learning his government name) at a popup he was doing at Frog. He was offering up some delicious cheese boards to enjoy with wine in their backyard. After the event, I started following him on Instagram and noticed he offered home delivery in Bushwick and Ridgewood 😈. It’s exactly what it sounds like: every week he DM’s his wide-ranging cheese selections, you let him know what you want ($30 minimum), and he bikes your cheese over to you. As someone who does nightly apertivo hour and doesn’t have a cheesemonger within a 20-minute walk, without exagaration, this has changed my life. And don’t worry if you don’t live in one of those neighborhoods, you can still enjoy Tommy Cheese’s offerings at one of the many popups he does in the city. Check his Instagram for more info.
No doubt you’ve heard about the new skating rink in Bushwick, Xanadu. But I’m here to tell you it’s just as fun as you’d imagine! I was lucky enough to get invited to a Vinyl Nights party that was happening there and had a blast. The space is huge and even if skating isn’t your thing, they have DJs and food and a bar. I gotta say, the best part of the place is the people. Every type of New Yorker is there. Every age, every demographic, everyone is just skating around and having fun. It was electric. Get yourself some tickets to Xanadu and have fun!
Don’t forget you can have a custom New York City itinerary just like this, made specifically for you with our Curated Days!
