RESTAURANTS: Sex in the City Week

So, this is what is being called "Sex in the City Week" in New York. Yes, it is, I heard it on the news.

To cash in on this clever bit of HBO marketing, Chop Suey - the contemporary Asian restaurant  Zak Pelaccio consulted on - is having a bit of a celebration. A special character menu and trivia contest is in effect. The special menu will ofer four meals reflecting each of the Sex in the City starts including an appetizer, entree, dessert and cocktail. For instance, the Samantha menu includes lobster slow poached egg foo-young and ginger buerre blanc with a double dirty martini. And the Charlotte includes watercress and asian pear salad and a bellini. And Miranda includes beef short ribs sliced marinated and grilled  and a Brooklyn Lager. Of course the Carrie includes NYs new favorite food the slider and you know what the cocktail is. If you don't, then this whole week will be lost on you.

All options are $30 or $38 with the appropriate cocktail (which is acutally a really good price for a cocktail in Times Square) and are finished with the Mr. Big Chocolate Cake Dessert. 

 Times Square isn't the only place you can get your sex fix.  A slew of restaurants have added updated versions of the cosmo in honor of the movie.

Islero (247 E. 50th St.) has created a Cosmolero  - a Spanish version of the cosmo, and Lima's Taste (122 Christopher St. )  has done a Peruivan version called the Cholopolitan. ROC Restaurant at 190 Duane Street is doing an Italian version called the Cosmolitaliano made with limoncello from Sorrento. - Fabiana Santana
