After seeing The Connector at MCC theatre — a musical loosely based on Shattered Glass — we headed downtown to Kyma, a Greek restaurant in Chelsea/Flatiron, NYC.

We were so early that the dining room hadn’t opened yet. We sat at the bar and enjoyed our cocktails until we moved to our table.

Once seated, we shared the tasty pikilia with a trio sampler of tzatziki, melitzanosalata, and taramosalata with pita triangles and an order of spanakopita ($19 for 3; $7 an additional one). My Greek dining partner raved, saying it was one of the best spanakopita she’d ever had. A huge compliment.

Also good is their fresh lavraki ($39); it’s my traditional Greek choice!

After dinner, we headed around the corner to Raines Law Room, a speakeasy that has become my local bar. Don’t miss it.
