The 2Q playbook for a market slump
Spring has been unkind to investors in the past few years. If it brings misery again, these moves could pay off nicely.
By David Sterman
The stock market rarely moves in a straight line.
That's why many investors grew anxious in recent months as the S&P 500 ($INX) managed to rise in 10 out of the past 11 months. So it should come as little surprise that the market may be shifting gears as the second quarter gets underway.
The S&P 500 has fallen more than 1% on three separate occasions in the past two weeks, which has raised the specter of another spring sell-off. As I've written before, the market has suffered drops ranging between 9% and 17% in each of the past three springs (StreetAuthority).
But if we are headed for a similar downturn, then there's no reason to sit idly by and watch your portfolio shrink. Here are several ways you can juice your returns, even in a down market.
1. Own volatility: One of the most remarkable byproducts of the recently rising market has been the dissipation of investor fear. Volatility, as measured by the VIX index, fell by half from June 2012 through the end of the first quarter of 2013.
But since bottoming out around 12 a week ago, the VIX is already back up to 16.5. For reference, the VIX surged to 45 in the spring of 2010 and again in the spring of 2011, though it peaked at 27 a year ago when the market was falling.
You can profit from a rise in the VIX through a range of exchange-traded funds (ETFs). I'm partial to the VelocityShares Daily 2x VIX ST ETN (TVIX). This is a "2X" fund, which means it moves twice as fast as the VIX. So a 50% jump in the VIX (from a recent 16.5 to around 25) would yield a 100% gain for this ETF. This is obviously a speculative investment and should be only a small part of your portfolio.
2. Watch the insiders and buybacks: When the market heads lower, companies tend to step up their pace of buybacks; insiders tend to step up their purchases as well. Insiders tend to aggressively purchase company stock when their own company's outlook is more robust than a flagging share price would indicate.
Insiders are typically unable to buy shares ahead of a company's earnings release, but as we head into the heart of the earnings season, insider buying should pick up -- and you should be scanning the insider activity on a regular basis. I recommend InsiderInsights.com for its timely release of insider activity data.
3. Venture abroad: Even as our key market indexes remain close to their peaks, many emerging markets have reflected a more skittish mood in light of the still uncertain global economy. For example, the Market Vectors Vietnam ETF (VNM) has already given back its recent impressive gains.
And the iShares FTSE China 25 Index Fund (FXI) has slid 15% during the past three months, compared to a 5% gain for the S&P 500. Meanwhile, the Market Vectors Brazil Small-Cap ETF (BRF) has dropped 30% during the past two years, while the S&P has risen 20% in that time. That disconnect of 50 percentage points should spell opportunity for long-term investors.
In light of the uncertain U.S. market for the weeks and months ahead, it may be a bit premature to jump right into emerging-market funds, as they tend to slump badly when the U.S. and European markets pull back. Yet history has shown that these sharp pullbacks can create great entry points. So now is the time to start monitoring these markets and funds, as some of them may soon slump into deep-value territory (StreetAuthority).
4. Short Treasurys: Although the stock market is just beginning to show signs of weakness, the bond market has already sounded the alarms. The yield on 10-year Treasurys has steadily fallen by nearly 16% since mid-March.
The fall in yields typically signals a weakening economy. But a large number of economists still think the U.S. economy will perform much better in the second half of the year.
"S&P Economics is still projecting a 2.7% increase in real GDP for all of 2013, with growth above 4% in the second half and growth of 3.1% for all of 2014," said Sam Stovall, chief equity strategist at S&P Capital IQ. If he and other economists are correct (Seeking Alpha), then the yield on 10-year Treasurys will move right back up above 2% or higher later this year.
That's why it may be profitable to invest in the ProShares UltraShort 20+ Year Treasury (TBT), which moves in the opposite direction of bond prices, at twice the pace.
Another option is the Direxion Daily 7-10 Yr Treasury Bear 3X Shrs (TYO), which moves at three times the rate of bond yields -- in the opposite direction.
Risks to Consider: As an upside risk, we have yet to reach the peak of the earnings season, and better-than-expected results could empower the bulls to return to their buying ways.
Action to Take --> The market gives and the market takes. Yet even in a market retrenchment, there are still plenty of ways to profit. Any of the ways I've mentioned in this article should be strongly considered as defensive mechanisms in this market.

When I ordered my Ganesha statue, I didn't expect it to arrive so quickly but BOOM, there he was on my porch in less than a week! It was packed meticulously and with the love that it deserved. He is sitting proudly in my living room now and I couldn't be happier. Thank you!Reviewer:Monica (Kalamazoo, Michigan, US)
Buddha as presented. Packed well. Shipped quickly. How could I not be pleased? We are most happy with this purchase!Reviewer:L. Mattas (Hidden Valley Lake, California, US)
thanks for all. I apreciate your fast serviceReviewer:yolanda (aventura, florida, US)
I cannot say enough positive about my experience in working with Kyle at Lotus Sculpture. I made a purchase of a beautiful Buddha, and it was damaged during shipping. Kyle was so positive and supportive, professional and personable: as unhappy as I am over loosing the beautiful Buddha I had chosen, Kyle worked with me to find another. I am very delighted with my Buddha; the new one has arrived safetly and is even more amazing than Kyle could describe. Every time I have ever contacted Kyle with any question, he has been very quick to respond, and given me good information. My overall experience with Kyle and Lotus Sculpture has been very positive, and I am looking forward to future satisfying events. Thank you, Des.Reviewer:Ava Desiree Hutsell (Warwick, RI, US)
Buying these Ganeshas were a dream of mine for so long and I'm glad I did. Kyle was absolutely wonderful to deal and my Ganeshas came rather quickly and beautifully packaged. They are treasures on my altar and already I'm thinking of my next purchase. Thank you Lotus Sculpture for your wonderful service.Reviewer:Aman Pillay (Auckland, Auckland, NZ)
I have been looking at this statue for years, and knew deep down that I wanted to add it to my collection of other Lotus Sculpture statues. This antique statue is unique (estimated to be between 50 and 200 years old) and was offered to me at such a special discount that I felt overwhelmed when I opened the box, carefully packaged by Kyle and his team. When I looked at Goddess Meenakshi I smiled, because her nose is slightly crooked just like mine! I knew immediately that I am part of her and she is part of me. She is now sitting proudly on a dresser beside another antique statue of Shiva. Their respective heights are perfect. The love couple is complete! Thanks to Lotus Sculpture and Kyle Tortora for his generosity and for giving me this one chance opportunity to be connected to what is close to my heart. May Lotus Sculpture be prosperous!Reviewer:Jenny Wolkowicki (Roselle Park, NJ, US)
In all of my interactions with the owner of Lotus Sculpture, I experienced respectful communication, clear organization and overall excellent customer service. Thank you. I love the piece I bought from you.Reviewer:Amy Nosek (Bowen Island, British Columbia, CA)

About Ganesh
~A Hymn from Sri Bhagavat-Tathva~
The chubby, gentle, wise, elephant-headed Ganesh, or Ganesha, is one of Hinduisms most popular deities. He is the remover of obstacles, the deity whom worshippers first acknowledge when they visit a temple. He is also patron of letters and of learning; he is the legendary scribe who, using his broken tusk, which he often holds, wrote down parts of the Mahabharata epic. Ganesh is usually depicted colored red; he is pot bellied, has one tusk broken, and has four arms that may hold a pasam, a goad, and a pot of rice or sweetmeats. The sweet meats are held in a type of bowl known as a laddus. His appetite for these sweets is legendary and offerings of them are often left at his shrine.
Statues of Ganesh can be found in most Indian towns. His image is placed where new houses are to be built; he is honored at the start of a journey or business venture, and poets traditionally invoke him at the start of a book.
A pasam is a triple twine weapon. Each of the three twines represents, arrogance and conceit, Maya - the illusory nature of the real world, ignorance. In Hindu ideology weapons are a viewed as symbolic tools to destroy the ego rather than to cause any type of bloodshed. Goads (or elephant prods) are typically used to direct elephants. Goads are symbolic of how one should steer the soul away from the ignorance and illusions of this earthly world just as a mahout would steer an elephant away from any treacherous path.
About the Artist
View the video below to meet Balan and see his marble workshop and see a little how the statues are carved:
White, red and black marble statues are easy to take care of as they just need some annual upkeep to keep them looking as they did when they were first carved. Here are some easy tips to keep your White, red and black marble statues from Lotus Sculpture looking like the gods they are:
- Dust the statue as needed to prevent dirt build up
- To make the statue shine use a cotton cloth to buff the sculpture
- You can use a small amount of natural oil such as coconut oil or olive oil to further polish the sculpture
- Use a tooth brush to get into the hard to reach spaces of the sculpture
- DO NOT TOUCH the painted surfaces of any of the white marble statues. This will damage the painting if done often

Will Movie Gallery closure boost Blockbuster?
BBI stock is up double-digits today on hopes of increased market share ... but that may not be enough to save the struggling chain
Though Movie Gallery had already declared bankruptcy, things went from bad to worse over the weekend as the company has decided to close all of its 2,415 stores and liquidate its inventory. The movie rental chain had hoped to stay alive after some restructuring, but it couldn't stop the bleeding fast enough. Movie Gallery also operated locations under the Hollywood Video and Game Crazy brands, and all will be closed at an undetermined date.
This prevents an interesting dilemma for investors in regards to the top brick-and-mortar rental chain Blockbuster (BBI). Will the company continue its own descent to the bottom and follow Movie Gallery into oblivion, or will it turn Movie Gallery's failure into a success now that it has the market almost all to itself?
Judging by share prices today, investors seem to thing Blockbuster will stick around. BBI stock is up 12% in intraday trading as of this writing.
Of course, the elephant in the room is mail-order rental provider Netflix (NFLX), which is up over 2% today on
the news that it has squeezed yet another player out of the home DVD rental business.
But the fact is that even though Movie Gallery wasn't profitable, the chain
managed to generate $750 million per year business on the old model of renting video
games, DVDs and Blu-ray Discs out of retail locations. Netflix may gobble up
some of that pie to meet the demand, but Blockbuster has a good shot at some of
these customers.
Some may be renters who aren't comfortable with Netflix, and others may be hardcore movie fans who don't want to wait for some of the titles that are delayed in release by Netflix or in too high of a demand to be shipped promptly. Netflix and Redbox both have 28-day delay for new release title negotiated with studios, ostensibly to prompt DVD sales by die hard fans in that initial month-long window after release.
If you don't want to wait that means you have two options – but the disc at full price, or rent it from your local Blockbuster.
Yes, Blockbuster is on the verge of bankruptcy. (Read about Blockbuster
BBI stock and its challenges here.) In its 10k filed in March with the SEC,
Blockbuster said that if it can't boost its operating income and if it is
unable to restructure its debt, the company has "substantial doubt about
our ability to continue as a going concern."
But Blockbuster is fighting for all its worth. BBI execs recently announced they inked two more deals with movie studios securing rights to rent movies from its stores and by mail the same day they are released for sale on DVD. The deals with Twentieth Century Fox Home Entertainment LLC and Sony Pictures Home Entertainment Inc. are important weapons in its fight to prove it can provide quicker release of quality films than its mail-order rival Netflix or rock-bottom vending machine prices of privately-held Redbox.
Investors are jumping into Blockbuster shares today on the hopes that the
franchise can benefit from Movie Gallery's failure. But the real question isn't
how much blockbuster will cash in on its new market share – it's how fast BBI
can actually turn a profit. It has posted three straight quarterly losses and
is on track to post another when it posts earnings on May 13.
If Blockbuster doesn't get in the black soon, it doesn't matter how much of the market it controls. Without any profits, BBI will be forced into bankruptcy or liquidation just like Movie Gallery.

Decade after deadly Rhode Island fire, lessons for Brazil
Fire officials and survivors of a 2003 nightclub fire that killed 100 people in Rhode Island say there are lessons for Brazil and elsewhere from sweeping changes made after the fire.
A fire code enacted after the blaze means movie theaters, nightclubs and concert halls now must announce the location of emergency exits before each show.
Many venues were forced to install sprinkler systems and make other renovations. One theater that shut down six years ago because it couldn't afford the changes reopened on Saturday after raising about $200,000 to install new fireproof seat upholstery and other upgrades.
Fire survivors say bouncers are more attentive to safety problems, as are concertgoers.
One fire chief says other states and countries would save lives if they adopted Rhode Island's rules.

A serious three-vehicle crash near Delta closed a busy road for a few hours Thursday. The crash sent two people to the hospital and officials on the scene say those involved are lucky to be alive.
Police say the driver of a pickup truck crossed the center line and hit two other cars on State route 20-A near the intersection of state Route 109.
An air ambulance took the driver of one of the cars involved to the hospital and a ground ambulance took another.
"There was heavy damage to the vehicle that caused the crash. I guess it's just important to remember that when you're traveling down the roadways, crashes happen fast, and you need to leave yourself reaction time to make sure you can react to what's going on in front of you," said Deputy Eric Leininger with the Fulton County Sheriff's Office.
Officials are still trying to determine what caused the crash.

Today's Front Pages Analysis
Television writers' guild strike makes Page One news all over
Why should a strike of 12,000 movie and television writers in Hollywood and New York be Page One news all over the country? Well, Nielsen estimates that there are 286 million television viewers in about 112 million television homes in the United States and that television is watched eight hours and 14 minutes a day in the average household. So that's why. It might well be argued that what affects television affects us all. If the strike isn't on Page One today where you live, check again later in the week.
Here in the shadow of the nation's capital, The Washington Post tells its readers that "Hollywood Strike Turns Punch Lines to Picket Lines," while The Miami Herald warns viewers: "Hollywood writers strike; it's re-reruns for late-night talk shows." The Marietta Daily Journal in Georgia reports at the bottom of Page One that "Writers' strike in full effect," while The Lewiston Tribune in Idaho makes "Strike sends TV to reruns" the lead story. The Star Press in Muncie, Ind., contends that if the television strike lasts long "we'll all end up reading or talking or something." The Sun in Baltimore claims in an unusual head that "Strike could speed ebb of network TV." Others have made the same claim in past strikes with longer words than "ebb."
The Clarion-Ledger in Jackson, Miss., also notes that "Writers strike puts late-night shows on rerun," while The Kansas City (Mo.) Star in its off-lead story claims "Strike puts TV on 'mute.'" The St. Joseph (Mo.) News-Press leads with a succinct "Writers walk out" even as the Lincoln (Neb.) Journal Star leads with "Writers strike sends late-night TV into reruns." You'll find much the same on Page One of The Oregonian in Portland, The Providence Journal in Rhode Island and the Richmond Times-Dispatch in Virginia.
However, and in the interest of full disclosure, we must admit that when this task is done we're going back to read the story at the bottom of Page One of the Yakima (Wash.) Herald-Republic, which reported: "Heifer falls 200 feet onto windshield of van." Nothing to do with television, but we want to know about that flying cow.

46 U.S. Code § 3711 - Evidence of compliance by foreign vessels
(a) A foreign vessel to which this chapter applies may operate on the navigable waters of the United States, or transfer oil or hazardous material in a port or place under the jurisdiction of the United States, only if the vessel has been issued a certificate of compliance by the Secretary. The Secretary may issue the certificate only after the vessel has been examined and found to be in compliance with this chapter and regulations prescribed under this chapter. The Secretary may accept any part of a certificate, endorsement, or document, issued by the government of a foreign country under a treaty, convention, or other international agreement to which the United States is a party, as a basis for issuing a certificate of compliance.
(b) A certificate issued under this section is valid for not more than 24 months and may be renewed as specified by the Secretary. In appropriate circumstances, the Secretary may issue a temporary certificate valid for not more than 30 days.
Source(Pub. L. 98–89, Aug. 26, 1983, 97 Stat. 525.)
|Revised section
|Source section (U.S. Code)
Section 3711 prohibits any foreign vessel from operating on the navigable waters of the United States or from transferring oil or hazardous material in any port or place under the jurisdiction of the United States, unless it has a certificate of compliance issued by the Secretary indicating that the vessel has been examined and found to be in compliance with the provisions of the applicable regulations. It also authorizes the Secretary to accept, in whole or in part, an appropriate foreign certificate issued pursuant to any international agreement to which the United States is a party, as a basis for issuing the certificate of compliance. This means that the Secretary does not have to accept foreign certificates as evidence of compliance, but may take additional action to assure compliance with applicable domestic laws and regulations and international treaty provisions.

Should You Buy McDonald's or This Stock Instead?
David is a member of The Motley Fool Blog Network -- entries represent the personal opinion of the blogger and are not formally edited.
Fast food restaurant chains have taken several steps to create value either through cost cutting measures, re-branding, or international growth expansion. Below, I review what specific steps McDonald's and Wendy's have taken in recent months or even in recent weeks. At the end, I conclude with my thought on which one will outperform.
McDonald's (NYSE: MCD) Pulling Growth Levers
Even though Italy was badly hit by the economic crisis, McDonald's believes investing in that region will provide very high returns. In my view, investors should read between the lines: if McDonald's believes it can perform well in a challenged market, what does this imply for its strategy in other regions? McDonald's plans on opening 100 new locations around Italy, employing over 30,000 workers, and spending $457 million on the reported expansion. As much as this sounds interesting, it's a risky move since there are more than 30% less foreign investors in the country after the beginning of the recession.
In the domestic market, McDonald's is re-introducing the iconic Big Mac in the Americas and hiring a third party ad agency Translation to communicate the update. The new Chicken Wings will also be launching soon in the Chicago area, which has over 500 locations, and it is expeced to be a huge success.
What Wendy's (NASDAQ: WEN) Is Doing to Create Value
Wendy's recently reported it will act on the Affordable Care Act by cutting work hours for over 100 employees in Nebraska to 28 hours a week--a move designed to avoid paying for mandated healthcare benefits. It is now considering spreading its new program to all Wendy's locations. While this may save the company money, it comes at several risks: political scrutiny and less-dedicated labor. Employees at fast-food restaurants have high turnover, but weakening the ability of those who desire for full-time jobs to achieve something more than just a "job" could end up decreasing productivity in the long-run.
In regard to political scrutiny, it's not, however, difficult, in my view, to circulate a favorable brand image through a PR blitz. Wendy's apparently doesn't think so either. Wendy's recently decided to enter a partnership with a medical research institution, Siteman Cancer Center, which will use the donation to fund its research of pancreatic cancer to advance therapies to patients worldwide. A $2 promotion is made in all Wendy's stores in Missouri where, when a customer buys one $2 meal, he'll get a free Jr. Frosty. Most of the revenues from the promotion will go to the SCC.
In other plans, Wendy's is now turning to low-priced menu meals to keep up with their competition--it hopes that 15% of its new revenue will come from these meals. The plan was to offer $0.99 meals in all of its locations worldwide to get the recession-hit number of customers back. Customers are now more carefully spending, and this has hit fast food chains like Wendy's and McDonald's in terms of visitors at the worst time (ie., when raw food and labor costs are rising).
So, clearly, we can see that McDonald's and Wendy's are not just resting on the laurels. While McDonald's is seeking to expand its international footprint, Wendy's is seeking to cut costs and re-brand. Which one is more undervalued? In my view, McDonald's is the much more preferable of the two investments. It trades at 15.1x forward earnings versus 25.9x for Wendy's. The latter is just starting to enter the profitable territory, but it's, in my view, too shaky of an investment to buy over McDonald's, which will experience a more predictable 9% annual growth rate over the next five years.

A man has filed a discrimination lawsuit against Cracker Barrel Old Country Store in federal court, saying that he was discriminated against because he is gay.
John Bostick filed the lawsuit May 17 in Tampa. He was hired by Cracker Barrel in 2008 a manager trainee and worked at one of the company's restaurants in Bradenton.
Bostick's lawsuit says he experienced harassment and discrimination because of his sexual orientation, including one instance when an associate manager told other staff that a customer might be "afraid he'll catch AIDS" from Bostick.
Bostick says he told superiors about the harassment and they didn't take action.
In court documents filed July 21, Cracker Barrel denied the allegations. A spokeswoman for Cracker Barrel said Monday that she couldn't comment on pending litigation.

- Charming VenuepiamomiaDined on 9/28/2014Went here for Brunch while Abbot Kinney Festival Event was happening on the main street. Charming venue and staff but they condensed the menu that day, I'm assuming bec of the Abbot Kinney Event that day. So that was disappointing being our first time at this place we did not get to try the food we really want to try (eg. Fig & Cheddar Melted & Grilled Sandwich). I will definitely come back to try their dinner menu and will make sure they have the regular menu available before going.Special Features:
- YanaVIPDined on 9/15/2014I think the restaurant is overrated! The food didn't meet our expectations and was not worth the money paid. Also, there was a piece of foil in one dish, the waiter took it away to re-make it, so one of our party waited for his meal really long. No one even apologized for that.
- Small portions, nice atmosphereCarolineDined on 9/15/2014The portions were quite small. I had the spaghetti pomodoro which was a bit salty and the halibut which was excellent. I also had spinach which was not very good. The portions were small. The atmosphere was very nice with candles on the tables and nice decor. The service was great.Special Features:
- Always greatyprojectDined on 9/14/2014Third time here and it's always great. This time I brought my own bottle of wine since it was a special occasion though I found the corkage fee to be pretty high. Aside from that it was wonderful.Special Features:
- Birthday DinnerSandyGDined on 9/12/2014The ambiance was cool and urban trendy. My favorite part of the meal was dessert. The chocolate panna cotta was amazing. Dinner for two was very expensive and service was as acceptable. The waitress either didn't know much about the individual plates or was too busy to explain what we were ordering. I'd go back to explore more of the menu items. Corkage fee is $30 and valet is quick and affordable so no need to hunt down parking.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Need to focus on serviceChristiVIPDined on 9/6/2014From the moment we stepped up to the hostess stand, I knew this place had a tude. Hostess RUDE. Server nice but not attentive. Wasn't welcomed for ages. Didn't take a drink order. Water glasses not filled. Asked for a recommendation after telling waiter preference and received exactly what I don't like. Meal finished, wasn't presented after dinner choices, and had to ask for check after waiting forever! Never saw our waiter again. That said, pasta was amazing and would try again. But they definitely need to address some staff issues.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- unimpressed unfortunatelyOpenTable Diner Since 2012Dined on 8/31/2014was very excited to come to this restaurant after hearing amazing reviews, but the food unfortunately did not pair up. nothing was spectactular, and most foods were either under or very much over seasoned. will not return.Special Features:
- Fabulous in every wayNormandoVIPDined on 8/30/2014There is just something about this place that sets it out as a great place to dine. From the olives and cheese to the highly designed entrees. Just the best. And terrific service.Special Features:
- one of our favorites for brunch!vanessaDined on 8/30/2014We had brunch here with our baby and sat in the semi-outdoor area. We have been here before and love the ambiance. The semi-outdoor area is so lovely. Staff is very helpful and friendly. Brunch is fantastic. We shared the french toast (I believe a brioche) which is unlike any other we've had -- it was several inches thick and you slice it up... so good..and also shared the savory waffles which is served with fried chicken (perfectly spiced) and slices of bacon (it tastes like fried pancetta). My husband isn't the type to eat a lot of bacon (weird, right?) and he LOVED it. The brewed coffee was great and the cocktails even better.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- WowsaOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 8/21/2014Most awesome food and service. Best in LA as far as I'm concerned.Special Features:
- AVOIDJDSRPMVIPDined on 8/13/2014Boring, Uninspired, Loud, and Over Priced. Bummed...was looking forward to a nice dinner. SKIP!
- everything was good cept the burgerChauncedeLeonDined on 8/11/2014Heard and read many great things about the restaurant so we decided to take some out of towners for dinner here. We ordered a bunch of items from the menu so everyone can try a little of everything...for my main, I ordered the burger and unfortunately it was one of the worst burgers I have tasted. Disappointed. The bread wasn't good, the bell peppers were slimy and overpowering. The strip of thick pancetta or pork belly tasted very briny and didn't compliment the beef. I had one bite and couldn't finish the rest. Not sure if I would go back unfortunately.Special Features:
- Tasting Kitchen is tasty!Table4twoDined on 8/9/2014The menu is imaginative, beautiful presentation and perfectly balanced flavors. The wait staff is well informed, appropriate and charming. I would recommend to anyone---maybe not for 'littles'.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Delicious brunchkatkDined on 8/9/2014Came on a Saturday around 11a with a reservation. Street parking around Venice at this time was no problem. House bloody was refreshing. We shared Eggs in a Basket, Fried Chicken&Waffles, Short Rib Hash. As popular as Eggs in a Basket seemed to be (1 at every table) it was just a touch too sweet for me. Fried Chicken and Short Rib Hash was delicious. The portions are good. I left sated but not at food coma status. I would definitely come back to try more items off the menu. Also, their tableware is super cute and great contrast to their decor. Our server was really nice, we had one person come really late and he was very accommodating.Special Features:
- 5 courses bring it ondoylieDined on 8/8/2014My son treated my husband and I to the 5 course tasting menu. I never thought we would eat it all but over 3 hours we ate and drank and had the best time. One of the best meals of my life and way worth the $80 per person charge. Highlights mussels in saffron, scallops in bacon, sun cucumber / tuscan melon salad , whole barnzino. That was just half of it! Great for a special occasion and definitely a memorable experienceSpecial Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Delicious!KathleenLVIPDined on 8/6/2014The menu doesn't do its items justice as descriptions are spare, but our server did - describing the ingredients tantalizingly well. Fresh, tasty, novel cuisine, from small plates to desserts. A great meal!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Good food pleaseGoodEatsPleaseDined on 8/3/2014Great space, cool design, tea in a real tea cup, excellent food, creative aesthetic and taste, good portion size. Loved it! Will go back again!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Tasty Food!MohereDined on 7/25/2014Enjoyed the food, but the noise level too high...we sat upstairs as we were told it was "quieter"...not the case, so we moved to the covered outdoor patio downstairs, which was a tad better. Beautiful, modern decor surrounded by a beautiful tree. Our waitress was very attentive and friendly. A little pricey for the amount of food you get, but still very enjoyable. Be sure to order the fresh bread and butter - AMAZING (butter is sprinkled w/sea salt - soooooo good!).Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great food and intimate ambianceMrCardiffDined on 7/20/2014Booked this place last minute, surprised to find a table! Will certainly return... thank you.Special Features:
- Fantastic!PeriVIPDined on 7/19/2014I'd heard some mixed reviews about this place but our experience was phenominal. We were greeted by a very friendly hostess and shortly escorted to our table. Service was attentive.....and then came the food. Best polenta I've ever had, and my family is Italian. Creamy, rich and the tomato compote was sweet and textured perfectly. Short rib hash was tender through-and-through which went with the perfectly poached egg. Cocktails were crisp and classic and the perfect pairing. Tough to get a table at times but would be worth a wait. Ready to go back and try some other menu items.Special Features:
- Good tastes from the kitchenItalianVIPDined on 7/13/2014The first time I came with a larger group and the food was amazing despite the group size and serving sizes. The kitchen delivered again this time, though a couple of the dishes could have been better. The beets were over-cooked and the roasted chicken was tasty but not quite roasted - it lacked that crispy outside that roasted chicken can and should have. However, the radicchio salad was amazing, so was the steak, and the burger somehow moved our vegetarian friend to the dark side that evening. So this kitchen still delivers really good food in what I consider to be a very romantic setting.Special Features:
- UnderwhelmedfrepsDined on 7/12/2014Expected a lot based on recommendations of knowledgeable people. We had an inedible radicchio salad, so bitter as to be offensive, and scallops that were over cooked. The chicken was fine, but massively overpriced. The service was inattentive, although the table next to us ordering bottle after bottle of expensive wine got lots of attention.
- Amazing food. Mediocre all else.jjrrDined on 7/12/2014How can you have a restaurant in Venice that barely offers any gluten free options? Throw on top the fact that they don't share their wi-FI (again, Venice, CA in the year 2014) coupled with super slow service and a confused kitchen that couldn't manage to bring out our sides till well after we were done with the meal and I doubt I will ever return. Regardless how good the French toast is.Special Features:
- Cold halibutWeenakinsukDined on 7/11/2014Sadly our food was cold and the chef could not be bothered to put it right so we left without eating. So very disappointed after all the hype. I got the impression that they could not care less whether we ate or didn't eat.Special Features:
- Chicken & waffles to die for!ajayVIPDined on 7/5/2014Chicken and waffles stuffed with sausage! I just moved from Dallas to Venice where I used to have chicken and waffles almost every weekend for brunch (my splurge for the week), so I have a VERY discerning palate when it comes to this dish and Tasting Kitchen nailed it! Everything from the side of gravy to the perfectly fried chicken. AMAZING!Special Features:
- live2dineDined on 6/29/2014The Croque Madame is really, really good! As are the fries! Quite noisy.Special Features:
- MMM-Marvelous Memorable MealPJFWDined on 6/22/2014Had truly memorable meal here. 6 in group - all raved about their food. Great Belgian draft beer to start while we waited for companions to arrive. They had mixed specialty drinks which they said were top notch. Seated on time at lovely table by the window so noise level was perfect. Daughter is gluten intolerant but there were several entrees for her to choose from - she had fish, two of us had hangar steak (we agreed best we've tasted in the LA area), another said pasta delicious, also shared divine mussels, amazing scallops appetizers, few sides, and some good desserts. Wine corkage a bit expensive ($30) but we like to bring our own. Would have enjoyed trying chef menu but 2 in party had dietary restrictions - oh well- we'll be back.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Would go againOpenTable Diner Since 2014Dined on 6/22/2014Had Lunch there on the weekend. Seated upstairs where it is very laid back and chill. Recommend the burger for lunch although it did get messy with the egg that they put in there. Good drink menu. Only thing that was a pain was parking.Special Features:
- Second TryPickyEaterMDRDined on 6/21/2014After a disappointing brunch visit, I took my husband to The Tasting Kitchen for a second try. It was worth it! We had a great meal - mussels and scallops as appetizers - so delicious. Pasta with sausage and the hanger steak for main courses. We both enjoyed the food and the table. I would definitely go back again.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Great Food. Awful Server.CKPeatsDined on 6/20/2014I really love this restaurant. I have been before and think the ambiance, menu and food are outstanding. It was very unfortunate that this past weekend our waitress was very rude. At one point she actually laughed in my face when I asked her a simple question about starters. I was so taken aback by her unfriendly attitude that I had trouble focusing on my order. I feel for such an expensive restaurant, the wait staff should be very friendly and happily answer questions about ANYTHING....no matter how simple they may be. No matter how good the food is, I cannot recommend this restaurant to any of my friends or business associates.Special Features:
- Tasting kitchenOpenTable Diner Since 2009Dined on 6/17/2014The food was overpriced and sub par. The bun they served the burger on was all wrong to begin with and it was stail; it made eating the burger very difficult. There was no complexity to the dishes. The charcuterie was sloppy and poorly put together. All of the cheeses were too similar in flavor and style. We did have scallops and they were cooked perfectly but it was $22 for two scallops with pesto and a couple ounces of beans. The fries were nice but they served them with an oddly bland aioli; it tasted like mayo with olive oil. I did not enjoy it with the fries. Overall I say it was not good and it's not likely that I will return.Special Features:
- fabulous food in a casual settingmbgirlDined on 6/16/2014This quaint neighborhood restaurant really delivers on the healthy, delicious, extra special aspects of dining. Although the dishes are very complex, the ingredients are fresh and the blends produce absolutely symphonies of flavor! Highly recommended for the foodies among us, particularly those of us that value healthy cuisine as well. Service is fabulous also!Special Features:
- I am excited to go backLsquaredDined on 6/15/2014I have been wanting to try Tasting Kitchen for a long time. I thought the food was great. I had the cheese plate, branzino, spinach and potatoes. The fish was delicious. I would order it again. I can't wait to try the pasta on my next visit. Our server was incredibly helpful and offered ordering suggestions.Special Features:
- Exceeded ExpectationssistertreeDined on 6/14/2014Our first impression of The Tasting Kitchen was that the restaurant was snooty and we would have to put up with pompous service if we were ever to eat there. But this was before we indeed at there. You see, the restaurant has a long waiting list and it's hard to get a table as a walk-in for a reason: the food is phenomenal and one of the best values for the quality we've ever tried. Our waitress was spot on with every recommendation, including a wine pairing and dessert. The service was swift and elegant, and the entrees were artfully presented. I will definitely be returning on our next special occasion,Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Creative tastes4FOODVIPDined on 6/8/2014Our party of six were promptly seated and acknowledged quickly. We shared many of the small plates as starters. Amazing mussels with fennel, asparagus-truffle honey, house speciality of chicken wings apple cider and flax seeds, scallops. Could make a nice meal with their starters. Especially enjoyed the gigli pasta. Rigatoni not as good. Entrees included the Halibut with proseco butter,english peas, and caviar. Wonderful dish. Others had the coho salmon and hanger steak; although Halibut shined. Excellent cocktail, especially the Valkerie and extensive Wine list. Service very efficient and helpful as to food and wine. Deserts also very good.Special Features:
- Great service & ambianceOpenTable Diner Since 2011Dined on 6/7/2014Over-all love Tasting Kitchen -- the service was excellent, and the vibe is very "cool" and comfortable. Cheese plates are amazing -- let your server make the selection unless you know exactly what you want. Bread & butter is actually a "side" item and worth it...amazing. Veggie sides are great, chicken was only OK, but bread salad that accompanied it was great. Cocktails are excellent too.Special Features:
- Nice spot with my mother in lawRandRDined on 6/7/2014The waiter was very kind to check on foods that I could and could not eat, I have a few dietary restrictions. Will definitely be back!Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- Spectacular foodNormandoVIPDined on 6/6/2014This is a very different and wonderful place. The food is unusually designed and exceptionally tasty. We had the best pasta dish we had ever tasted.Special Features:
- Great atmosphereGarpieDined on 6/5/2014This is a nice special occasion restaurant. Atmosphere was great, the service staff was attentive and friendly. Some great dishes. Some mediocre dishes.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.
- The following 533 reviews are from the The Tasting Kitchen reviews archive.
- Great for brunchFood4thoughtVIPDined on 6/1/2014A great spot in Venice that has a nice downstairs atrium and upstairs seating area. I went for brunch and had a hard time deciding on what to order. Our waiter was very knowledgeable and helpful in answering any questions on the menu. We decided the fried oyster eggs, short rib hash and scarmosa sandwich with a fried egg and everyone loved their food. The sticky bun with caramelized bacon is a must try! I would definitely come back again.Special Features:I would recommend this to a friend.

Crews continued repairs underground in downtown Atlanta on Tuesday after an explosion launched manhole covers into the air, knocking out power to businesses in the area on Monday night. It happened along Broad Street, near Peachtree Street. Georgia Power says the explosion was caused by cables catching fire in an underground electrical vault. Police say at least five manhole covers were sent flying, and those covers weigh 425 pounds each. No one was injured.
"I came out and heard a real big boom, and people started running out of the stores and running around and everything, trying to figure out what the noise was," said witness Jimmy Coleman on Monday night.Power crews worked underneath the street on Tuesday to fix the cables that were damaged by the fire.
Georgia Power officials say there are up to 10 businesses in the immediate area that remain without power. They expect all power to be restored to those businesses on Tuesday evening.Crews still are not sure what caused the cables to catch fire, and they say work will continue underground throughout the week.

Hartnell College to Honor Volunteers at Luncheon
Sept. 23, 2002
More than 500 individuals who volunteer their time to help Hartnell College have been invited to the second annual Volunteer Recognition Luncheon to be held Friday, Sept. 27, on campus.
"Hartnell is very appreciative of the volunteers who assist the college in delivering its many programs and services to the community," said Hartnell President Edward Valeau. "The recognition luncheon is one small way of telling these volunteers that we are grateful for their support," he added.
Volunteers, who include students as well as community members, donate their time in a variety of ways at Hartnell-tutoring students, serving on advisory committees, and providing general assistance to college programs.
The Volunteer of the Year award will be presented to Susan Gill, a member of the Hartnell College Foundation and co-chair of the Capital Initiatives Committee that raised $600,00 for the college's new King Center Education Center, which opened in the summer.
Keynote speaker will be Basil Mills, a community leader who assists Hartnell in many programs, including the Western Stage, the theater company located on the Hartnell campus. His topic will be "The Importance of Volunteering."
Maria Frias, a Hartnell student who serves as one of hundred of tutors for the America Reads literacy program on campus, will speak on "What Volunteering Means to Me."
For more information on the luncheon, call (831) 759-6038.
