This week, George Oliphant features two things New Yorkers love most about summertime — juicy burgers grilled to perfection and open air bars for those hot summer nights. 1st/Look NY finds gourmet burgers at Prime Burger Cafe at Old Homestead Steakhouse in the Meatpacking District and cold beer in the garden at Soho Park, a new place to cool down over drinks with friends.
The Old Homestead has been serving top notch steaks in The Meatpacking District since 1868, long before the fashion crowd brought Jeffrey, Soho House, and Keith McNally to the 'hood. This spring, the Old Homestead dedicated their sidewalk cafe space to their beloved burgers and added a selection of toppings and side dishes to complement their world famous beef.

On a bustling Soho corner that used to be home to an open air parking lot, New York’s very own beer garden has finally opened. The green, park-like atmosphere and wide selection of beers make Soho Park one of the best places to kick back and cool down this summer. George Oliphant samples their fresh-brewed selection.
