Singer-Songwriter Vanessa Carlton Indeed Loves Ruby’s in the AfternoonIn her single “Nolita Fairytale,” Vanessa Carlton sings about her love of “Ruby’s in the afternoon”— a reference to her favorite neighborhood hang. “It’s the best people-watching,” she says of Ruby’s. “Everyone looks like they’re out of an editorial shoot for some hip magazine.

We asked her whether this week found her at any of the above.
