Chip City proudly presents the Swiss Miss Hot Cocoa Fudge Cookie for a limited time.
Eating out in New York is difficult right now. You can't eat indoors because of COVID-19, and eating outdoors is extra tricky with the cold weather. Still, it's extremely important to support our favorite restaurants and small businesses, and they're making it worth your while with delicious menus, specials and pop ups.
Despite the economic hardship, NYC welcomes new restaurants to the game every week. Some of our established favorites are opening new locations, and everyone is adding fun, seasonal treats.
From a new hot chocolate cookie flavor at Chip City, to an 18-course weekly tasting menu at MIFUNE, there are plenty of ways to explore new dining options in the city whether you want to go out or stay in.
