Great walks: Suits

Big-shot lawyer and stylish man-about-town Harvey Specter prides himself on the ability to kick ass in and out of the office. Before you exercise your brain, tone your muscles at the Manhattan Plaza Racquet Club (450 W 43rd St between Ninth and Tenth Aves; 212-594-0554, mprcnyc.com), where you can rent a private tennis court (nonmembers $105 per hour, members $44–$67 per hour) if you’re rolling as deep as a Pearson Hardman attorney. For access to a broader range of sports, spring for a one-day pass to sister venue Manhattan Plaza Health Club (482 W 43rd St at Tenth Ave; 212-563-7001, mphc.com; day pass available Mon–Fri $35.12). You’ll have full run of the facilities, which includes a rock-climbing gym, cardio and weight equipment, a pool and a roof deck.

Make a quick stop at Discovery Times Square (226 W 44th St between Seventh and Eighth Aves; 866-987-9692, discoveryts.com) to check out the latest exhibit—a look at the slick field of espionage. You’ll be able to inspect actual declassified CIA gadgets, navigate a laser field, and disguise your face and voice. Maybe Harvey’s protégé, Mike, wouldn’t have been expelled from college if he’d used these skills during his shady test-selling escapade.

It’s time for a swanky power lunch at the Lambs Club (132 W 44th St between Sixth and Seventh Aves; 212-997-5262, thelambsclub.com). Get comfortable in one of the red leather chairs and consider which of chef Geoffrey Zakarian’s refined American dishes to order. We like the classic gyro ($24) on a house-made pita, but if you’re not one to get your hands dirty, try the steak salad ($36), which pairs slices of sirloin with arugula, Romano cheese and a red-wine vinaigrette.

Any dapper gent who wants to impress—whether it’s a client, boss or lady friend—should own a three-piece suit. The master craftsmen at Imparali Custom Tailors (608 Fifth Ave at 49th St, suite 310; 212-245-5555, imparali.com) can sew you a polished-yet-affordable look (prices start at $750) from one of 10,000-plus fabrics. It’s best to call ahead to make an appointment, but the results are well worth the effort.

As he’s always perfectly coiffed, Harvey would be disappointed if we didn’t send you for a little grooming, too. Whether you need the full-service (scalp-massaging shampoo, conditioning treatment, hot towel, haircut, manicure, shoe shine; 45mins $68) or a beard trim ($15), treat yourself to some manly TLC at John Allan’s (Saks Fifth Avenue, 611 Fifth Ave at 49th St, seventh floor; 212-940-2210, johnallans.com). Kick back with a complimentary beer or espresso, and let the staff pamper you as you ponder the next step in your quest for world domination.

Strut down Fifth Avenue toward Midtown Cigar (562 Fifth Ave at 46th St; 212-997-2227, mid-towncigar.com). Among the international options are everything from bougie Montecristos and Gurkhas to modestly priced brands like El Rey del Mundo. If you’re just interested in learning more about high-falutin’ smoking culture, keep an eye on the website for upcoming events.

Cap off the day at the Bar Downstairs (Andaz Hotel, 485 Fifth Ave at 41st St; 212-601-1234, newyork.5thavenue.andaz.hyatt.com): Bartenders will mix you an expert version of your favorite classic quaff, or you can select one of the inventive house cocktails, such as the Mexican Firing Squad ($15), which combines blanco tequila, pomegranate molasses and a dash of bitters.
