10Best Says

Rare Form is modern-day European deli that is part of a cool dual-concept venue which includes a rooftop bar called Fairweather. Perhaps start at Rare Form to enjoy classic butcher shop items including pates, terrines, sandwiches with house-cured meats, in addition to the likes of matzo ball soup. You could also opt for their lineup of savory waffle sandwiches including crispy chicken and maple syrup and smoked ham and swiss... their own spin on deli traditions. Then, head upstairs to Fairweather, a place dedicated to "drinks from sunny places" from a menu of classic cocktails, throwback cocktails, 12 beers on tap, wine and more festive fun.
