If you like cheese, this place is a must! I’m half Swiss, so I’m partial but this is a unique restaurant offering traditional raclette. The raclette and the croques are delicious! :) You may have seen video of the Raclette cheese being served on Instagram.

Raines Law Room Chelsea
48 W 17th StSpeakeasy with fantastic cocktails and ambiance.
Really unique and interesting cocktails. In December, they decorate the bar and turn it into “Miracle on 9th Street”. Get there as soon as they open or expect a line, as this holiday pop-up gets very busy. They have Christmas and Hanukkah themed drinks. Definitely a fun place to visit.
