An East Village Night Citywalk in Four Stops
An East Village night on foot: grab Taiwanese bao on St Marks, catch stand-up and a jazz speakeasy on East 4th, and finish with French-Indonesian plates in Nolita. Short blocks, long night.


Start on St Marks Place with Eddie Huang's pillowy Taiwanese bao, filled with pork belly or fried chicken. It fits a stand-up snack before the night. Open to 11:00 PM on weekends. Pricing is mid-priced.


In the same East 4th building, a cozy speakeasy pours cocktails with live jazz and open mics in an old-New-York room. It suits a late set. Open nightly to 4:00 AM. Pricing is mid-priced.


A few blocks south on East 4th, this snug club runs a classic NYC stand-up lineup against a red-brick wall. Sets run late, with a 20-dollar minimum. Open to 1:00 AM on weekends. Pricing is mid-priced.


End in Nolita at Cedric Vongerichten's sleek room for French-Indonesian plates like escargot rendang. It fits a dressed-up finish. Open to midnight Thursday through Saturday. Pricing is upscale.
