The calendar year may be winding down, but luckily, such is not the case for New York City\u2019s bar and restaurant scene<\/a>. As anyone who lives here can tell you, December is never quiet: just walk by Rockefeller Center or Bryant Park if you don\u2019t believe us. But tourist hordes and giant Christmas trees aside, this last month of the year is quite literally festive, which means dining and drinking out right now takes on an extra glittery and magical sheen.\u00a0<\/p>\n

And while you might want to hit all of your holiday restaurant favorites this season, make sure to leave some nights (and days!) free to check out some new contenders. December\u2019s arrivals offer a little bit of everything: for those of us with a sweet tooth, we\u2019ve got one of Los Angeles\u2019 most famed doughnut shops opening up in the Village, plus the first New York location of one of France\u2019s most storied bakeries. Cocktail enthusiasts are also in luck: we have all the details on the new concepts from the teams behind Zero Bond<\/a> and Junoon<\/a>, respectively.<\/p>\n

As to where you should head first? We\u2019ll leave that up to you.
