New Restaurants On The Radar: MARK, Ardesia and Carnival

Carnival: This fun house wonderland above Bowlmor Lanes has been getting a lot of hype before their opening. And really, why the hell not? There are circus performers, waitresses in skimpy costumes, a "fun house" dance room, and goldfish to be won at a hammer slam and ring toss for $4 a game. Snacks follow the circus theme, with hot dogs, popcorn, alcoholic snow cones and candy by the pound. If that isn't enough of a challenge, enter the "Dunk Tank," a $70, two gallon mix of vodka, gin, Malibu and fruit juice. If you somehow manage to finish the whole thing, you get to keep the tub! A selection of 20 beers is also at your disposal in case you don't feel like conquering that monster just yet. 110 University Pl, 3rd Floor, 212-255-8188
