Make a visit of it

NYU's art museum punches way above its weight -- the collection includes 6,000+ works and the temporary shows are adventurous. The new Cooper Square building by Fumihiko Maki is architecturally striking. Wednesday late hours until 8pm are the sweet spot.

After: Momofuku Noodle Bar (Asian-American, $16-24). 1st Ave at 10th. David Chang's original. Pork buns and ramen in a no-reservations format.
