Bar Clacson, the anticipated collaboration between Eric Alperin (The Varnish) and Richard Boccato (Dutch Kills, Fresh Kills), represents a space that’s both neighborhood-friendly and destination-worthy. Their eponymous spritz captures the aperitif-inspired, low-proof nature that carries throughout much of their opening drink list.
