Are you ready for a night of decadent fare, sumptuous wine, alluring jazz, and exclusive vibes applauded by Time Out? Welcome to Speakeasy Thursdays At The Newsroom, a night of pure indulgence in a hidden oasis, nestled behind a door disguised as a Coke & Snapple refrigerator. Intrigued? Dive right in!
Grab your $69 pulse (a $140 Value) for a 3 Course Speakeasy Thursdays Dinner For Two that includes 1 Appetizer, 2 Entrees, 1 Dessert, 2 Glasses of Red or White Wine, or 2 Beers, as well as Live Jazz Music from 6:00pm until 10:00pm (subject to programming).
A guarded secret tucked away like a treasure in Long Island City, The Newsroom evokes a level of intimacy unlike any other, all the while buzzing with social splendor and chic chatter. Live music will fill the air as wines flow and beers bubble, setting your palate up for bliss as you start with a plate of Filet Mignon Taquitos with freshly-made herb tortillas and avocado corn salsa.
Next up, the Moqueca Peixa Branzino is a winner, dripping with coconut sauce, not to mention the Charred Grill Octopus & Bone Marrow with garlic lime chimichurri, or the Grilled Lamb Chops served alongside goat cheese au gratin, black olive mustard, red pepper salsa & sweet potato mash.
Dessert? It's the sweet sensation you've been craving, and nothing hits the spot like their Molten Lava Chocolate Cake. Every second here is a delicious dream...
The Newsroom is ready to serve up mystique, entertainment, and gastronomy, and once inside, you'll be spellbound - but before you enter, you must find the door! Nothing beats a night like this, and you'll only find it here in New York City!
Your journey starts at the Station Lounge, a delightful tribute to 1990s NYC subway stations. Hidden inside Sushi Saint by Michelin Star Chef Michael Collantes, you'll discover the entrance behind the unpretentious facade of a newsstand & refrigerator doors lined with sodas.
Adore gorgeous interiors awash in mahogany, leather, green, and gold, treating your senses to a spectacular scene as live jazz music trickles into the air. Your senses will alight with every moment under The Newsroom's roof, especially when you consider the feats that lies ahead. Let the wine pour and the brews cheers, each sip elevating your delectable nosh.
Prepare your palate for the culinary artistry of Celebrity Yankees Chef Ricardo Cardona and his signature Latin-European fusion dishes. Kick off the procession of plates with some Ropa Vieja Croquettes, aka chopped braised beef, mozzarella cheese, pecorino Romano, truffle sauce, truffle oil, parsley, oregano, and chipotle guava sauce shaped into crispy bites.
As mains come to the table, be wowed by succulent Grilled Hangar Steak served medium rare with herb chimichurri, not to mention the Drunken Duck Breast boasting pan-seared, smoked & marinated duck breast lain on a bed of coconut rice with a side of ancho chili, orange, and red wine jus.
Music makes your toes tap and more wine keeps the vibes high, while Strawberry Cheesecake add a sweet finish - unless your night is just getting started...
