Alex Davis and Learan Kahanov (Madam Secretary, Clerks III, Power Book II: Ghost) opened a bar in their own neighborhood. Alex is a middle school principal by day.

3 Small Plates we like are the Housemade Hummus (Learan’s family recipe); BEK Fried Rice with applewood smoked bacon, house made kimchi and fried egg, and Bao Bun Sliders with pulled pork, pickled daikon, chili, fresh cucumbers and Japanese BBQ sauce.

In this month’s issue, our front and back cover story is with actor Michael C. Pitt (Boardwalk Empire, Asphalt City, Reptile) and Jack Huston (Boardwalk Empire, Expats, House of Gucci) who makes his directorial debut in Day of the Fight. With Michael playing Mike Flannigan and Jack directing, producing, and writing, this film which also stars Joe Pesci, Steve Buscemi, and Ron Perlman to name a few - this film which centers on boxing, redemption, and the future is one that should be seen! We had the pleasure of speaking with both of them about the film, its themes, the power of cinema, and more! This month, we launched THE 9LIST 9TASTING by having a fun virtual event with Doreen Winkler, Founder of Orange Glou. We talked with her about natural wines, natural orange wines, the history of orange wines, and we delved into the world of this category that is available at this LES wine store with a retail front and tasting room.
