New York

Henry’s End is one of a dying breed—a true old-world New York treasure, in one of the city’s loveliest neighborhoods, Brooklyn Heights. But location and ambiance are only two of the ‘End’s four main treasures—the other two being its killer beer selection (it’s not how many beers you have, little grasshoppers, but which ones you choose to serve that is important) and its yearly Game Festival, which begins today, September 29th. You’ve got turtle soup, boar, and other options, but we simply recommend the following procedure: go in, sit down, speak the words “Elk Chops,” and life will soon begin to have new meaning for you. If it doesn’t, there’s always Scientology or the Church of the Rosy Crucifiction.
