I’m convinced nobody at Nespresso has ever tasted flavors before
Their “Pumpkin Spice Cake” pods taste exactly like those hot cinnamon candies I would buy along the the Freedom Trail on field trips as a kid
And my cologne has more vanilla notes than their “Vanilla Custard” pods
Another lovely dinner at Ci Siamo—some of the best food I’ve enjoyed in NYC in years, and with Robin running a *superb* wine program, and Dawn behind the bar, all in a beautiful space, well, it’s pretty darn perfect
NYC is the greatest city in the world!! … unless you have to:
1. Run an errand after 6pm
2. Run an errand (anytime)
3. Commute crosstown
4. Commute downtown/uptown
5. Eat or drink after 915pm
6. Own a dining room table
7. Be happy
Whenever I receive my weekly e-mail from Eleven Madison Park exhorting me to make a reservation, I invariably (1) chuckle bemusedly, (2) shake my head in a sort of gentle bewilderment, and then (3) promptly delete.
Our dinner Saturday night @MentonBoston would stand out even in happier times and climes as wonderfully elegant and charming, but is all the more beautiful and precious now as a stalwart bastion of fine dining.
(Pheasant and venison on the same tasting menu—well, it’s paradise.)
Hello @barbaralynchBOS—I am so happy to say I dined at No. 9 Park tonight, and savory courses were as beautiful as ever
Menton tomorrow night, for my girlfriend’s birthday
You are a beacon of fine dining and civility
@Uber_Support Hi, Once again an agressive driver (Uber Black) made us feel unsafe and we were forced to use LYFT. I know your company is better than this.
@BostonGlobe@devrafirst New EMP will crash and burn, Chef Hume will return to conventional (meat-based) menus, and hopefully that will be the end of this theorizing
I want future Marvel to be more Falcon & Winter Soldier, but future Marvel wants to be more Loki.
Why!!? Being clever while you DC yourself is still DC-ing yourself.
Once Hadestown is blaring on your Bose speakers, it’s time to accept the cards Fate dealt you, turn up the volume, put the proverbial foot on the metaphorical gas, and batch up more 4:1 Monkey 47 Martinis
