"You could come to Tomi Jazz just for drinks—they have enough Japanese whisky and sake to keep a boatful of 19th-century sailors satisfied. But you most likely waited in a line to get into this jazz club, and probably worked up quite an appetite. So while you’re on the best Midtown East date of your life—in a room stuffed with dusty tchotchkes, being serenaded by a trumpet player—get a bowl of their cod roe spaghetti. It’s creamy, salty, and a perfect complement to whatever you’re drinking." - will hartman, neha talreja, bryan kim, willa moore
