Carthage Must Be Destroyed
The Carthage Breakfast Salad is a big, bushy, hearty dish served spilling over its plate with two oblong, crunchy sourdough toasts. Crispy Romaine with avocado, herbs, cucumbers sliced vertically, and sprouts, dressed with fresh lemon juice, olive oil, flaky salt, and coarse black pepper. Eggs and marinated feta make this not just a breakfast salad, but a tasty lunch or dinner that satisfies.

Bougie Parfumée
Scented Candles that reflect the tenor of
R U H L - made in New York City. We begin with six uniquely formulated staple scents - Citronella, Hearth, Nag Champa, Petrichor, Sel de Mer, and Shea Butter; and three distinct blends that celebrate Central Park, Chelsea, and of course New York City. Hand poured into amber apothecary jars with repurposed steel hardware and natural cord.

Niçoise Supper
Niçoise generally means ‘in the style of Nice, France’. This simple, cheap, delicious plate is based on the classic flavor combination.

New York City Subway Tiles
The tiles that line the entries, passageways, and platforms of the New York City subway system are amongst its oldest remaining relics.

The Cotswold
The Cotswold is a simple, slow sipping, sturdy cocktail that quickly develops into a savory drink. It’s the perfect accompaniment to a plate of rare prime rib, or for dessert after.

In Defense of the Potato
The potato provides a delicious, efficient, blank canvas. It’s healthy and satisfying in a way that real food is, and it’s cheap.

Antique Chandelier Crystals
If you appreciate sparkly things, and delicate things, and/or historical things, then perhaps the idea of chandelier crystals (sans the chandelier), is of interest.

Breakfast Cacio e Pepe
Breakfast Cacio e Pepe is inspired by the classic flavor combination of cheese and black pepper - but with eggs, and no dairy. Nutritional yeast is not meant to replace a traditional cheese, but to add protein, texture, rich golden color, and a savory profile.

Sohrab Hura @ PS1
The first U.S. survey of the artist Sohrab Hura (Indian, b. 1981) includes photographs, text, film, drawing, and painting from the last twenty years of his disparate practice, exploring themes of colonialism, partition, and socio-political change.

Potato Mince Potage
A rich, rustic, satisfying, small dish that’s easy to prepare, and chock full of nutrients and flavor.

The high-end art market is tanking. And that’s … a good thing?
And what’s selling, and what’s even being shown in museums, is really splashy, superficial stuff. It’s mostly — frankly, almost entirely — big, colorful paintings that look good over a sofa.
