Some days I think we really need to raise the dues of this block association, which currently sit at $0/year. At ZZ’s Club, a private members-only club at 35 Hudson Yards (same building as Equinox and Kendall Roy’s swanky apartment), for an easy $20k initiation fee and then just $10k/year, you get the privilege of being able to tell other people that you belong to ZZ’s Club AND book a reservation at two restaurants (called ZZ’s and Carbone) that the rest of us can’t find on OpenTable.
Exclusivity is the point here, and so even your paper won’t get you in; you have to know a guy, and that guy had to know a guy, and probably so forth. Here’s a handy article called Can You Actually Get Into ZZ's Club New York? which explains the application process yet which we at H28’s Club will summarize for you: No. Now that’ll be 20 thousand dollars.
