NYC Restaurants

Cedric’s, Danny Meyer’s new cocktail bar, is now open at The Shed, the city’s newest arts center at Hudson Yards. The bar has an approachable loungy feel playing off the success of Meyer’s Porchlight Bar nearby. Light snacks and cocktails are offered. Drinks include the Hudson High Step (Bourbon, Rainwater Madeira, Benedictine, Fino Sherry Angostura Bitters, Olive, with a sidecar of Cedric’s finest draft beer). La Rambla (Tequila Reposado, Bitter French Liqueur, Sweet Italian Vermouth, Lemon, Honey and Fresh Cherries) and Cedric’s Whiskey & Cola (Rye, Branca Menta Fernet, Cola Syrup, Prosecco). Snacks include Salt & Vinegar Popcorn, a Gooey Grilled Cheese and Curry Deviled Eggs. For dessert, there is pull-apart Monkey Bread and Cherry Chocolate Chunk cookies. Just like The Shed, Cedric’s is an original.
