Dear Diary: I was standing on the platform at the Union Square station.My heart skipped a beat when I saw her across the tracks: my ex-girlfriend from college.We had broken up bitterly several years earlier because I wanted to move to New York City.I shouted across the tracks to get her attention.Who are you?

Celebrity chef David Burke has signed on to open his first new restaurant in three years at an office tower in Midtown East.According to the New York Post, the Iron Chef America star is bringing a 148-seat modern American brasserie called Park Ave Kitchen to 277 Park Avenue, between East 47th and 48th streets, in May 2023.

Desbrosses Street in TriBeCa is not exactly the Champs-Elysees, but it's a fairly broad boulevard.So it's still an appropriate home base for this venerable Paris brasserie, now with a global presence.It's managed by Groupe Barriere, whose hotels often house a Fouquet's.Built into the Hotel Barriere Fouquet's New York, the ground-floor brasserie is brightly elegant, done with Art Deco details, glittering chandeliers, red leather upholstery, brass trim and white tablecloths.

For some people, a bad table is one where nobody can see them.For others, it's one where everybody can.In my book, a table is bad when it distracts you from settling down and paying attention to the meal.There's a table like that at the new East Village restaurant Claud, a lone two-top shoved against a small orphaned stretch of wall behind the host stand.

In the last few years of his life, the architect Rafael Vinoly kept a private studio in TriBeCa near his main residence, where he would work on building designs while also indulging his passion for music.He rented the one-bedroom loft, at 137 West Broadway, from his son Roman Vinoly, a director of his firm.

Mickey Drexler, the veteran retail executive who ran J. Crew and the Gap for many years, finally sold his TriBeCa townhouse, a former coffee-roasting plant built in the 1890s that he transformed into a fashionable single-family home.The sale price was $23.5 million, which was a sizable discount from the nearly $30 million he had sought when the house, at 464 Greenwich Street, first hit the market almost seven years ago.
