Lunch at La Mirabelle, March 2015

Monday, June 2, 2025, from 12:00-3:00 pm
NYPLRA ANNUAL LUNCHEON 2025


The NYPL Retirees Association is thrilled to announce that our annual luncheon will be held on Monday, June 2, 2025, from 12:00-3:00 pm. Last year’s luncheon was such a resounding success that we will be returning to Gennaro on the Upper West Side, a popular neighborhood restaurant that serves “honest Italian [food] at fair prices” (NY Magazine).

We are also happy to report that the cost of the luncheon has increased by only $5 to $70, not including tax and tip, a minor miracle in this day of constantly rising prices. The association will cover the tax and tip.

Gennaro is located at 665 Amsterdam Avenue, just south of 93rd Street. There is an M7/M11 bus stop just across 93rd from it; the crosstown bus, M96, is three blocks away; and the 1, 2, and 3 trains have a 93rd Street exit from the 96th Street accessible station..

The menu

Antipasti (choice of):
Branzino carpaccio crudo
Burrata with Roasted Tomato
Kale salad with pine nuts, currants, and ricotta salata
Eggplant Parmigiana

Main Course (choice of):
Rigatoni with eggplant, tomato and oven-dried ricotta
Grilled Salmon with honey mustard sauce
Slowly Braised Lambshank over pearled couscous
Braised Organic Chicken with almonds, currants, and Arugula Salad

Flourless Chocolate Hazelnut Cake
Tiramisu
Panna Cotta

Coffee and tea are included. A cash-only bar will be available for drinks. The restaurant does not accept credit cards. This lovely restaurant has been on the Upper West Side since 1996.

To reserve your place, please respond as soon as possible, but no later than Tuesday, May 27th to:
