Where Nightlife-Loving Mayor Eric Adams Eats

"The self-described conservative Republican until he turned Democrat was spotted dining at Harlem’s storied Rao’s with Republican billionaire John Catsimatidis shortly after winning the Democratic nomination for mayor. (Catsimatidis’s daughter has been the chair of the Manhattan Republican party since 2017.) “They sat at the table of another former cop, Richard “Bo” Dietl, who invited Adams,” the New York Post reported. Deitl has apparently owned his Rao’s table since 1977 — and that’s in part what makes the restaurant so hard to get into: You have to know someone who has a table. The Rao’s visit is where the Post reported that Adams ate broiled fish while a spokesperson for the mayor’s office said he ordered eggplant parm without cheese." - Melissa McCart
