Xenia Rubinos's music is hard to classify, even for a genre-hopping Brooklyn indie-pop artist.  Sure, there are Latinx inflections in there, she's hewing more and more to dropping hip-hop beats, and there are always some pop/rock tunes, some jazz, and even (this is alt Brooklyn) some classical in the background.  It all comes together into something immensely compelling.

MAKE A NIGHT OF IT:  People seem not to think about eating at the Lounge of Le Bernardin, which is something of a mystery to me, as it's more accessible way to get Chef Eric Ripert's excellent food.
