STRAKER'S · Manhattan
Straker’s, NYC
"The London import is top of my list for a night out this fall. I’m just as eager to try the menu, with its focus on carefully sourced ingredients, as I am to see what Thomas Straker did with the design—they took over the former Lucky Strike, so the space has a longstanding downtown history." - Hunter

DasDrittl · Vienna
DasDrittl, Vienna
"Plotting a November trip to Vienna (stay tuned for our GoGuide to the city) and have it on good authority that this is one of the best new restaurants in the city (that good authority is Ola Szwarc and Nadim Amin, the owners of Rosebar Centrala, which I’ll also be visiting)." - Emma

Art in London
"Frieze is upon us and while I will sadly be missing all but the last day, there are several shows I’ve saved for when I return home:"
- Issy Wood’s Self Portraits at National Portrait Gallery
- Magritte at Gagosian
- Robert Ryman at Barbican
- Salman Toor at Courtauld
- Yumo Yuan at Spazio Leone
- Martine Syms at Sadie Coles HQ
- Shauna

Salon 94 · Manhattan
'A Chair Is A Nest, Is A Foot, Is A…' at Salon 94, NYC
"I love an uptown gallery and museum day, and will be making my way to 'A Chair Is A Nest, Is A Foot, Is A…' at Salon 94, a selection from Gaetano Pesce’s archive curated by Anthea Hamilton, before it ends on October 24. It’s showing alongside Hamilton’s own exhibition, 'Comfort Zones,' and 'Gaetano Pesce Studio: Continued,' so I’ll definitely make a day of it and hop around to my other favorite galleries and museums, like Lévy Gorvy Dayan and The Frick." - Hunter

Spazio Luce · Verona
Spazio Luce, Italy
"I’m cheating by including Spazio Luce on this list because I actually went last week, but it had been on my wishlist since opening in 2025 and it was so good it deserves inclusion here. The seasonal restaurant is tucked high in the mountains, equidistant between Lake Garda and Verona, and a total must for foodies. Reserve in the main dining room to watch them work, or the greenhouse for a romantic vibe." - Emma

Curated By · Paris
Curated by, Paris
"I’m headed to Paris at the beginning of November for a long weekend with my (very new!) fiancée. It’s been wayyy too long since I was last there, so my list of places to go is overwhelming. But this vintage shop (rec’d by Paris local expert Emma Wollman) is a non-negotiable stop. I’ll be shopping for a special piece for my wardrobe as well as silver and antique objects for home." - Hunter

austa · Algarve
Austa, Algarve
"I’m currently in Algarve for the week and it’s been an idyllic final kiss of warm weather for a while. My wishlist while here has been small (there is so much to see, but I’m happy to be moving slowly on this trip—a rarity!), but Austa has been at the very top of the list. Elegant, local small plates, a fabulous wine list, and a laid back vibe; I’m sure I’ll be recommending it in the app soon…" - Shauna

L'Ormoie · Le Chênai
L'Ormoie, Perche
"Perche is one of my favorite countryside escapes near(ish) Paris (it’s a 2.5-hour drive away), and unfortunately this spot opened right after my last trip. I’ve heard rave reviews, and plan to eat there at least once on my next trip." - Emma

REW the store · Brooklyn
Rew the Store, NYC
"A just-opened designer concept store in Williamsburg with a curated selection of ready-to-wear, shoes, and accessories from some of my favorite labels, like Jeanerica, Maria McManus, and Jamie Haller. I’m just as excited to see the space, designed in part by Anna Gale of Mostly Objects, which is my absolute favorite source for vintage furniture and homewares in the city." - Hunter

Onigiri Mamma · Paris
Onigiri Mamma, Paris
"I really, really love onigiri and—thankfully for me—Paris is having a real onigiri moment. TUAN is my current favorite for unexpected flavors but this new spot comes straight from Japan and has a chef’s counter where you can watch them craft your onigiri by hand." - Emma

cloudstreet · London
Cloudstreet, London
"Cozy, unfussy, and totally perfect for an outdoor lunch while I can still have one." - Shauna

Graciela · Manhattan
Graciela, NYC
"I visited Buenos Aires a few years ago and loved my meal at Preferido de Palermo (I didn’t get to make it to the iconic Don Julio Parilla, but I’ll be back), so when the team announced they were opening an Argentine steakhouse in New York, I was thrilled. I love the fanfare of old-school New York steakhouses, but I’m excited for the Argentine style that focuses on live fire and traditional dishes." - Hunter

Ristorante Gilioli · Modena
Ristorante Gilioli, Emilia Romagna
"Emilia Romagna has been on my wishlist ever since Casa Maria Luigia opened in 2019, but this spring’s opening of Gilioli is making the trip feel like something that needs to happen ASAP. From chef Guglielmo Chiarapini—formerly of Rome’s Marzapane—it’s a laid-back trattoria with dishes like tortelli verdi and saffron risotto with smoked beef fat." - Emma

Stalle Studios · Manhattan
Stalle Studios, NYC
"I’ve wanted to book a treatment at this chic boutique facial studio for a long time, and now feels like the perfect moment for a change-of-season skin refresh. I’ve heard only wonderful things, and the bright space looks so peaceful." - Hunter

L'Espérance · Paris
L'Esperance, Paris
"Brand new and topping my never-ending Paris restaurant list. Is it okay to partially be attracted to a place for their choice in font? Their dishes look like everything I want to eat: crudo & crunchy. Judith Leclerc first put it on my radar and I can’t wait to try it." - Shauna

Le Relais 84 · Gstaad
Le Relais 84, Gstaad
"I went to Gstaad this summer and totally loved the chilled-out summer pace and stunning scenery. I’m keen to return for the slightly flashier winter season, and this slopeside restaurant opening in Dec. is top of my list. It comes from the team behind 84 Chalets, the best collection of villas in Gstaad and the neighboring town of Saanen." - Emma

JUJU VERA Design Studio, NYC
"The appointment-only studio of New York-based jewelry designer JUJU VERA. Her pieces are timeless and beautiful, with Greco-Roman influences that make them feel like little works of art. I love wearing jewelry with a story." - Hunter

Hôtel Bourbon · Courchevel
Bourbon Hotel, Courchevel
"The latest boutique hotel from the Chapitre Six group, opening in Dec. I went to their first ski hotel last year (Hôtel Saint-Georges Megève) and loved it, so I’m sure this one will be a hit, too. It’s quite a bit pricier than the Megève property but it looks so chic and sleek and has ski-in/ski-out access." - Emma

Barnaby Candy Company · Manhattan
Barnaby Candy Company, NYC
"The city’s latest candy shop is opening any day now in the West Village. I wasn’t allowed to eat candy growing up (we were a proud “fruit as dessert” household), and now my guilty pleasure is gourmet Swedish candy. My obsession started in college when Sockerbit opened on Christopher Street (the city’s first-ever Swedish pick-and-mix candy shop, RIP), followed by the original BonBon on the LES (before it went viral). Now it feels like there’s a candy shop on every corner. I’ve limited myself to indulge once a quarter, and Barnaby is next on my list—I’m curious to see how it compares to BonBon, which is the best and highest quality candy of them all." - Hunter

Restaurant Hotel Stanglwirt · Kitzbuhel
Stanglwirt, Austria
"The moment I feel the slightest chill, I’m plotting my winter alpine escape and Stanglwirt has long been on my radar (tennis! hiking! skiing!). Set in Tyrol, Stanglwirt has been operating for over 400 years; it’s undoubtedly a luxury property but it still maintains a family-run sensibility. I’m hoping this will be my year to finally make a stay happen…" - Shauna

Cavalier · Manhattan
Cavalier, NYC
"This Turkish-inspired spot recently opened in Chinatown with a chef from Diner and a cool downtown art-scene design. The braised lamb shank with cumin, orange, pomegranates, and roasted carrot is calling my name." - Hunter

Le Marche, Italy
"Headlining my summer 2027 vision board. This region has rolling countryside, gorgeous coastline, and a very Italian feel (i.e. it’s not overrun with tourists). Eyeing some stays from the Boutique Homes collection (FYI, AmiGo Premium users have a discount!), which are both beautiful and rather affordable. I’ll probably pair it with a few days in Florence, Modena, or Perugia." - Emma
