Where To Go That’s Like Kiki’s But Isn’t Actually Kiki’s - New York - The Infatuation

"Forgtmenot is about as close to Kiki’s as you can get without actually going to Kiki’s. For one thing, it’s literally right next door - and it’s also owned by the same people. Plus, these are both both dark, crowded spots where you’ll almost definitely overhear at least one group of Australians arguing about whether Sydney or Melbourne is better. Everything on the menu at Forgtmenot is under $20, and the bar food - ranging from lamb meatballs to burgers to a platter of grilled shrimp, chicken, and steak - makes this a good option for drinks and something filling before a night out." - bryan kim, matt tervooren
