The Dynamo Room Conjures Classic New York Next to Madison Square Garden

This small national burger chain adding New York to its lineup follows Escoffier’s famous maxim — “Surtout faites simples,” keep it simple — to the letter. All it serves is a double, 100 percent American Wagyu patty with American cheese, onions, pickles, jalapeños and a secret sauce on a potato bun, $16. Fries cooked in beef tallow and a vanilla milkshake are also available. Want a salad? There’s a Sweetgreen nearby. A skateboarder, Neen Williams, and a chef, Phillip Frankland Lee, are founders of NADC, which means “Not a Damn Chance.” Mr. Lee’s company, Scratch Restaurants, also has a sushi bar in Manhattan. (Friday)

Looking Ahead

The Frick Collection

Along with Fragonard, Ingres and Vermeer, keep Westmoreland in mind when visiting the newly renovated Frick. It’s the name of the cafe being installed on the second floor, in the former Frick mansion on Fifth Avenue, which originally opened as a museum 90 years ago and never had a restaurant. It’s also the name of Henry Clay Frick’s private, sumptuously outfitted railroad car. It will open on June 6 and operate during museum hours. There will be just 60 seats, and upper-level members will have priority for advance reservations. Others, including nonmembers, can book only the same day. The menu, by the chef Skyllar Hughes of Union Square Events, will lean strongly American.

Rockaway Beach Cleanup

With summer on the horizon, Project Rescue Ocean and the Jamaica Bay-Rockaway Parks Conservancy, two nonprofits, are sponsoring a volunteer beach cleanup; it’s on Sunday from 2:30 to 3:30 p.m., at Rockaway Beach and 108th Street in Queens, with refreshments, followed by a rooftop Apero au Souleil with music. The cleanup is free, and the apero costs $25. All proceeds benefit Jamaica Bay-Rockaway Parks Conservancy, and reservations are preferred.

Shopping

Glace Candy

Sasha Zabar has expanded his collection with this new candy store, an adjacent companion to his Carnegie Hill ice cream shop. A typical assortment of sweets like gummies, chocolate-marshmallow bonbons, licorice braids, fruit slices and more, some made in-house, fill bins and jars displayed on shelves. A chilled marble counter permits candies to be folded into a choice of ice creams. (Thursday)
