Dear Perfect Muse

My husband is planning a bachelor party for his bff. He doesn't want to hold it at a stereotypical place like one of the big steakhouses. But he's so busy at work that I have volunteered to find a cool and unusual spot. What do you suggest?

Kudos to you for offering to plan it. Here are a few suggestions to fit all different tastes - you can combine them or use them for inspiration. Either way, keep us posted!

1. For the thrill seeker - Trapeze lessons (outdoors at Pier 40 and indoors at W 30th St) or Sailing lessons (Chelsea Piers and Jersey City).

2. For the thrill seeker that prefers to be closer to the ground - The Golf Club at Chelsea Piers then hit The Chelsea Brewing Company which in addition to the great view has a cigar lounge or the recently opened Brooklyn Bowl (61 Wythe Ave., Brooklyn) which features 16 lanes, grub from Blue Ribbon, local beers, and live music.

3. Seinfeld Reality Tour - we heard Kenny Kramer is hysterical.

4. Unique Spots - Take a tour of City Winery, do a wine and cheese pairing in the private room, and then head upstairs for dinner and live music or check out 675 Bar in the former Level V spot which is exactly the type of venue we image best friends forever hang out.

5. Skip steak, try a tasting menu at one of these restaurants - Bouley, Cru, Morimoto, Spice Market, Bond St, or wd~50. Sit in a private room and indulge.

Still want more options? Check out the other posts on this blog for recommendations including speakeasies and other hidden gems. Happy Planning!
