Make sure they put this on the menu: Calamari with black pepper, preserved lemon, olive oil, and chilies. Photo by Laura Stolpman.
The starting price is $5000, and (not entirely surprisingly) no one has bid yet. The auction runs through Dec. 2nd. What do you get for your money? A party for 50 of your friends from 9 p.m. through 2 a.m., an open bar and a menu created by Chef Kornick. You can let Fish Bar curate the music or bring your own. What won't you get? "No riff raff. No cheesy DJ. No strangers spilling drinks everywhere. No lines. No crowds. No fuss."
Split up, that's $100/person, which isn't a terrible price for an exclusive NYE party that includes alcohol. Of course, that's assuming it doesn't get bid up. Whoever buys it, invite us!
