Curious to try new chef Kyle Bailey’s menu at Allen & Delancey? Tuesday is the night to do it, since that’s when drinks (normally $12) will now be half off. You’ll recall that Death & Co.’s Alex Day oversees the cocktail program, so this is really quite a steal. The drink menu follows. (There’s a version of Bailey’s dinner menu on the restaurant’s site; we’re told it’s still being tweaked.)

COCKTAILS
Instead of simply providing a catalog of drinks, our cocktail menu is a little different. Under each listing you’ll find two variations on a connected theme: No. 1 is light and festive, with citrus and fruit meant to refresh the mind and whet the appetite, while No. 2 showcases a base spirit, a stirred cocktail best enjoyed with thought, time, and good conversation.
