American Psycho's uber-exclusive Dorsia restaurant is popping up IRL in New York City

Move over, Via Carota. There's a new impossible table in town. For tonight only, the fictional white whale of the Manhattan dining scene, Dorsia—yes, that Dorsia—is coming to life in New York City, thanks to a partnership between Ketel One Family Made Vodka and hospitality-tech phenom Dorsia. And no, Paul Allen is not invited. A nod to the cult classic American Psycho, the IRL Dorsia pop-up will reimagine the iconic, never-quite-reachable restaurant as an immersive cocktail experience, where martinis come with a side of status—and a solid gold aesthetic. Hosted at one of the city's top restaurants (location: naturally undisclosed until you're on the list), the night promises 1980s excess with modern martini flair. Expect signature drinks like the "First Name Basis" (a dirty martini with blue cheese olives) and the "Power Suit," a savory, umami-laced concoction with tomato-infused Ketel One and horseradish. Yes, even the cocktails are dressed for success. In true Wall Street-era fashion, exclusivity is the main course. Beyond the velvet rope, guests will find a Ketel One martini tower, a cocktail-pick engraving station for personalized swag, '80s-inspired props (think vintage brick phones, Walkmans and briefcases) and retro Polaroids for that just-came-from-McCoy's photo shoot. Custom coasters, matchbooks and restaurant-style takeaways only add to the dinner party-meets-culture-club vibe. View this post on Instagram A post shared by Ketel One Vodka United States (@ketelone_us) Even if you're not on the guest list, you can still get a taste: Ketel One is giving away three coveted Dorsia Premium Memberships, which offer access to the world's toughest reservations and cultural events, to fans who comment 'IYKYK' on @KetelOne_US's Instagram post and tag a drinking buddy. And for those already dining at top-tier NYC restaurants, the 'Drinks on Dorsia' program unlocks signature Ketel One cocktails at participating venues, bookable via the Dorsia app. 'This collaboration will transform the Dorsia fantasy into a tangible experience,' said Ryan Hughes, the brand director for Ketel One Vodka, 'and offer culture and dining enthusiasts a taste of next-level hospitality centered around the art of a perfectly crafted cocktail.'

Microsoft fires another 300 people after recent major layoff

Washington, June 3 (UNI) US tech corporation Microsoft has cut its staff by more than 300 people after a major layoff in May, Bloomberg reported, citing a notice from the corporation to the US state of Washington that it has obtained. In May, CNBC reported that Microsoft would reduce its staff worldwide by 3% — the largest layoff at the company since 2023. According to data on the Microsoft website, as of June 2024, its staff worldwide numbered 228,000 people. More than 300 employees received a message on Monday that their positions were eliminated, the agency said. According to a Microsoft spokesperson, these organizational changes are necessary to improve the company's position and achieve success in a rapidly changing market. In January of this year, the company announced small layoffs in order to improve efficiency. According to the company's spokesperson, the new layoffs are not related to this. One of their goals is to reduce management levels. US corporation Microsoft was founded in 1975 by Bill Gates and Paul Allen and is headquartered in Redmond, Washington. The company specializes in software development, in particular, it is the developer of the Windows operating system. UNI SPUTNIK GNK
