Wondering how to meet new people this holiday season? According to research firm StrategyOne, almost one out of every ten adults has either dated or known someone to have dated a person they met at an airport or during a flight. So Axe spray — the industry leader in satisfying a need no one really thought needed to be satisfied — commissioned a study in 2007 with Sperling’s BestPlaces to rank America’s biggest airports by likeliness to produce a romantic connection. Their metrics include variables such as length of layovers and delays (which promote interaction, obviously) and cute shops and places to interact (beer gardens and magic shops). Basically, they came up with a formula to determine the likelihood of you meeting new people during a layover.
The best airport? Philadelphia. Yep. Apparently. Below are their full rankings. Let us know if this squares with your own experiences.
Who said beer and meat are only for men? A girl’s gotta have sausages and hamburgers too!
We love to go to DBGB with a group of friends but is chic place for couples to go on a date as well. All of it’s sausages are to die for so we recommend in getting at least 2 different types with your date. Also get an order of the frenchie hamburger, you can’t go wrong with it. DBGB also carries more than 20 types of beer on tap and over 50 bottled beer.
Daniel Boulud never disappoints foodies and DBGB is becoming New Yorkers favorite spot for some beer and artery clogging deliciousness.

It is not an overstatement if we say Andy Warhol is one of the most well known Pop artists. The painting of Campbell’s soup cans Marilyn Monroe are all too familiar with us. However Andy Warhol had more to him than just his paintings. He was a well respected photographer himself, and this exhibition, “Andy Warhol: Photographer” is a chance for the public to see.
“Andy Warhol: Photographer” is an exhibition of 143 unique prints and is the first gallery show that purely focuses on his photographic products.

Tired of your studio, or your one bedroom flex apartment you share with 2 other roommates? See where the real high class, wealthy, and cultured people used to live back in the days.
The Frick Collection is an art museum now, but was first built in 1913 as Robber baron Henry Clay Frick’s- yes that’s his name- mansion. The Frick Collection holds many traditional painting all from Monet’s pieces to Renoir’s. There’s also a garden court where you can relax and enjoy the quietness and enjoy the spring breeze. Of course it has a fountain, like all great mansions do!
My favorite part of this mansion/art museum is that it is a great wedding venue. You have to be a private member but if you are, this is a choice different from a castle but with the same classy opulence anybody would be in awe of.

APUTUMPU MUSIC FESTIVAL
Enjoy the music festivities for the whole weekend. The 4 day long music madness is starting TONIGHT. This is what My Social List has to say. “The Aputumpu Festival is a musical showcase featuring more than two-dozen rising bands comprising a cross-section of the burgeoning Brooklyn music scene. Much like the Amputumpu fruit – sweet on the inside, but rough on the outside – these bands exhibit raw, noisy, in-your-face performances, in contrast with the deep and often heartfelt sentiments expressed in their music. The bands’ rough, DIY aesthetic will be displayed over the course of four days, spread across some of the best venues in Williamsburg and Manhattan.”
COSTS: Tickets are maximum $10
SCHEDULE: Thu 3/22 8:00pm………..Shea Stadium (Bushwick)
Fri 3/23 7:30pm…………Public Assembly (Williamsburg)
Sat 3/24 7:30pm………..Cameo Art Gallery (Williamsburg)

Noho’s old time favorite Acme, revamped itself and now it’s a trendy hot spot with the same deliciousness it offered in the past..
“For about 25 years, this downtown space housed Acme Bar & Grill, a raffish Southern joint that hosted rock shows in the basement. It closed in 2011 and reopened in early 2012, gutted and beautified by the ultracool team behind Indochine. A fashion and art-world crowd inhabits the sexy, low-lit, black leather–appointed dining room. The inventive opening menu was conceived by Mads Refslund, an ambassador of New Nordic cuisine and a co-founder of Noma in Copenhagen, voted the best restaurant in the world. Categories on it include “Raw,” “Cooked,” “Soil” and “Sea/Land,” and items change with the seasons. Expect the unexpected in dishes such as sweet shrimp and bison or pearl barley with clams, scallops and artichoke, juxtaposing sweet/salty and bitter/sour elements.” -nycgo.com
