Andrew Cuomo\u2019s iron fist \u2014 thanks to an array of ingenious street and sidewalk setups. <\/p>\n<p>Cuomo\u2019s indoor-dining ban in New York City pushed struggling eateries to the brink, despite that\u00a0indoor eating accounts for a negligible 1.4% of COVID-19 spread.<\/p>\n<p>But restaurant owners and food lovers pushed back. Summer\u2019s makeshift sheds and tents gave way to an array of adorable private dining igloos, greenhouses, domes, and rectangular enclosures resembling luxury passenger train cars. They light up the streets and sidewalks during long, dark nights that need all the cheer they can get.<\/p>\n<p>It\u2019s challenging\u00a0enough to serve delicious food on the pavement, far from kitchens that are woefully under-staffed due to the pandemic.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>But places must also endure a blizzard of restrictions and constant surprise inspections by the State Liquor Authority and the city\u2019s fire,\u00a0health, transportation and sanitation departments. The impossible-to-satisfy rules require enclosures to be completely dismantled if snow is recast and even such minutiae as how many inches wide planter boxes must be.<\/p>\n<p>To celebrate their efforts, The Post asked its readers to share the alfresco eateries\u00a0that turned them on the most.. And New Yorkers delivered, with a torrent of photos to make their cases:<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Runners-up\"><\/span>Runners-up:<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Nougatine\"><\/span>Nougatine<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<h4><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"1_Central_Park_West\"><\/span>1 Central Park West<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h4>\n<p><!--If the slideshow is embedded in another post type add the inline wrapper --><\/p>\n<p>Nougatine boasts five glass-wrapped \u201ccabins\u201d on its patio overlooking Columbus Circle.\u00a0<\/p>\n<p>The less-expensive sister of Jean-Georges Vongerichten\u2019s flagship restaurant Jean-Georges, its menu is French-influenced Modern-American with a few Asian twists.<\/p>\n<p>The cabins afford fine views of the city scene all around, including Central Park across the street and Time Warner Center.<\/p>\n<h2><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"City_Winery\"><\/span>City Winery<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h2>\n<h3><span class=\"ez-toc-section\" id=\"Pier_26\"><\/span>Pier 26<span class=\"ez-toc-section-end\"><\/span><\/h3>\n<p><!--If the slideshow is embedded in another post type add the inline wrapper --><\/p>\n<p>Kudos also go to City Winery at Pier 26.<\/p>\n<p>This hugely expanded second coming of the popular wine emporium has geodesic dome-like eating enclosures on its rooftop terrace.

The three-year old wine bar with a well-priced (nearly everything below $20) American menu for breakfast, brunch, lunch and dinner has a unique setting in which to enjoy them: a trio of white canvas tents with an Arabian Nights flair.<\/p>\n<p><!--If the slideshow is embedded in another post type add the inline wrapper --><\/p>\n<p>Fairfax\u2019s whimsical, round \u201cyurt village\u201d pop-ups seat between four and six people each. They\u2019re as sexy inside and out, decorated with colorful, exotic fabrics and linens.<\/p>\n<p>Alfresco can mean al-freezo this time of year, even with electric and gas heaters. But Fairfax\u2019s overhead heat units pour their warmth directly onto diners, unlike at other places where the heaters often point the wrong way. (Yurt bookings available only to American Express Card holders through Resy.com.)<\/p>\n<p>Although my personal outdoor favorite is\u00a0Restaurant Daniel\u2019s sidewalk row of French Riviera-inspired cabanas, it\u2019s appropriate that Fairfax owner Gabriel Stulman\u2019s yurts took top honors with our readers. He\u2019s suffered more than most from the pandemic and lack of government help. He recently told Total Food Service magazine that the pols\u00a0\u201cfailed to support us because they\u2019re incompetent and unintelligent.\u201d\u00a0<\/p>\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><img loading=\"lazy\" width=\"1024\" height=\"682\" alt=\"Daniel restaurant\" class=\"wp-image-16898925 lazyload\" srcset=\"https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/12\/daniel-restaurant.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=300 300w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/12\/daniel-restaurant.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=640 640w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/12\/daniel-restaurant.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1280 1280w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/12\/daniel-restaurant.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=1024 1024w, https:\/\/nypost.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/sites\/2\/2020\/12\/daniel-restaurant.jpg?quality=90&amp;strip=all&amp;w=2000 2000w\" data-sizes=\"(max-width: 640px) 100vw, 1024px\"\/><figcaption>Daniel<br \/>\n<\/figcaption><figcaption><span class=\"credit\">Stefano Giovannini<\/span><\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Stulman had to close two of his nine downtown places. He nearly lost everything last spring when a landlord tried to hold him personally liable for lease payments although he couldn\u2019t even serve outdoors at the time. His impassioned advocacy helped persuade the City Council to suspend personal liability of commercial tenants impacted by government-mandated closures. (The legislation took effect in May and has been extended till March 2021.)<\/p>\n<p>He told The Post that he\u00a0got the idea for the yurts from his friend, former Eleven Madison Park co-owner Will Guidara. \u201cWill and his colleagues along with American Express and Resy curated a list of a dozen restaurants across the country to be a part of this winter dining program and they invited Fairfax to be a part of the group,\u201d Stulman said.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was a chance to bring a little magic when we could all use some.\u201d\n            <\/p><\/div>\n<blockquote><p><strong><span style=\"color: #ff6600;\">If you liked the article, do not forget to share it with your friends.
