6 Exciting Things To Do & Eat In NYC Between February 23rd - March 1st

"Venture into 12 St. Marks and you’ll find VSpot Express, the East Village outpost of Park Slope’s VSpot, a vegan Latin restaurant with plant-based takes on chicharrónes and empanadas. Keep going through the back, and you’ll find St. Mark’s Comedy Club, a full-on comedy speakeasy where you can catch some of the city’s best stand ups–including the brothers who own VSpot. This Saturday, February 26th, co-owner-turned-HBOMax comedian Alex Carabano will be headlining an all-Latinx comedy show at the venue. Order the appetizer sampler and hear about the horrified reaction Alex’s Colombian family had to his meatless existence. Entry is free. RSVP here. " - neha talreja
