"I'm committed to finding access points for my readers that may be buying Time Out New York for, say, the music listings. I want to find ways for people to get excited about the things I'm excited about."
"You can't get people excited about the cocktail movement by making people feel like assholes."
"I love when a cocktail bar isn't just providing a sponge for the booze, but putting some attention into the food."
