Russian Tea Room
I made a reservation at the RTR on an impulse for my anniversary dinner...I'm only in town for a few nights (from LA) and was looking for something romantic and different for my husband and I's wedding anniversary. I looked the Russian Tea room up after watching an episode of friends...(yes that is how out of touch with NYC I am) and went to their website...it looked perfect! Then I went to Yelp and am now doubting my decision! I'm looking for a landmark iconic/romantic/sexy restaurant that is purely New York! I like dark settings which is why the red and dark light interior of RTR struck my fancy.
So should I cancel my reservation @ the Tea Room? Any other suggestions in midtown/Theatre district area? Doesn't have to be Russian food, although I was really looking forward to that since I've never tried it.

I can't believe that place is still open. Do not waste your time and money. You're in NYC, for goodness sakes! There are literally hundreds of better (and less expensive) options.
I have to agree with southernitalian. I don't think the food is appalling -- they actually do a good bowl of borscht -- but mostly, it's not very good, either. There are better restaurants, even Russian ones, in Manhattan (for instance, Mari Vanna, a pretty restaurant in the East 20s: http://www.marivanna.ru/ny/#/).
As far as iconic, romantic and sexy restaurants go in Midtown: Look into La Grenouille and see if that might suit.

re: michelleats
I love Russian Tea Room, but would not choose it for your big special dinner. The atmosphere is great and cozy and different, but the food is not up to snuff for the occasion. I think maybethe food used to be better when it was a true expat russian hangout; I have the old RTR cookbook and there are lots of great russian recipes in there.
Michelleats made a great suggestion in La Grenouille, that place is absolutely fantastic and special and gracious.
But if you like high tea, and you have time during your visit, you might want to hit RTR for tea in the afternoon, say starting at 2 or 3.. Also: Make sure to request a booth when you make the reservation.

re: pauliface
I think La Grenouille is the perfect place for an anniversary dinner -- totally romantic!!!
re: michelleats
La Grenouille is not sexy. I love the place, but it is not sexy.

re: gutsofsteel
I agree - I also love the place, but it ain't sexy when the average age of the clientele is 60.
re: uwsister
An ageist comment if I ever saw one! Who says people in their 60's -- and beyond -- can't be sexy?
re: RGR
Ageism, I agree! I also do not equate sexy with romantic. Here's why La Grenouille is romantic: The flowers! The hushed atmosphere where you can have a nice quiet tête a tête. Gracious, seamless service, where waiters don't introduce themselves or intrude on conversation. Beautiful, comfortable room with nicely spaced tables and lovely paintings. Excellent, classic French food. And, of course, the flowers!

re: RGR
That's not what I said. Of course people in their 60s and beyond *can* be sexy. However I believe a restaurant generally isn't considered "sexy" by most people if the average clientele is in their 60s. Most people feel sexier in their youth than in their 60s. I say this as someone who's married to a man twenty years senior than her - if my opinion makes me an age-ist, then hey, I guess I am.
I agree that La Grenouille is very, very romantic - but not sexy.
i had a meal there a few weeks ago. like many readers of CH, i often take photos of the plates before tasting them. nothing that was served to Ms. Coasts or myself looked good enough to photograph. we left having taken zero pictured. neither of us finished dessert and it wasn't because we were so full from dinner. i vote cancel.

It should be clear by now that the RTR is a bad idea, but I'll add my voice to the chorus. I went there for an event earlier this year, and the only good thing I can say is that at least I wasn't paying for it. Happy hour at the Russian Vodka Room before moving on to a nice dinner somewhere else could be a fun option.

Tourist trap. Food isn't awful, but it's WAY overpriced.
My "celebrity" sighting, as everyone seems to have one, maybe 25 years ago: Joel Higgins, who played the father on "Silver Spoons" - not exactly Warren Beatty. My mother struck up a conversation with him. His dining companion was much more interesting, though - a voice actor, don't remember his name but he's done a million commercials. Specialized in rustic/Americana voices. Was the voice behind Pepperidge Farm, Country Time Lemonade, a number of other products back in the 80s.
Mari Vanna is fun, though I wouldn't do it for an anniversary. Right across the street from them is Gramercy Tavern, though - a solid choice, if there ever was one, often referred to as NYC's unofficial First Restaurant. Not exactly dark, but lovely upscale-farmhouse chic. That said, we're getting further from Midtown / Theater District.
In that part of town... with dark-ish rooms... (mind you, most fancy places aren't terribly dark - so we'll just go with "muted colors" perhaps...) the first places coming to mind are:
But I'd take the subway downtown, personally. Marc Forgione has a "dark" vibe, can be very romatic, especially on weekdays after the after-work crowds leave. And Chef Forgione is a NYC character, for sure - his father was one of the godfathers of NYC Modern American cuisine.
The Orchard feels positively subterranean - no windows and it's bathed in a dark orange light. Food is solid as well. Peasant could be a good call as well - rustic, hearty Italian, all cooked in a wood-burning oven. WD-50 (if you're adventurous eaters) is all dark tones, and a true only-in-NYC place.
All that aside, most of the "classic" NYC places - at least the high-end ones - are, sadly, tourist traps at this point. They might have had their heyday once, but are overpriced & overripe relics now. With the exception of a couple of steakhouses (Keen's and Luger's) I'm not sure I can think of any I'd recommend.
My suggestion: go somewhere awesome for dinner, forget about the "Classic NYC" thing. Do some classics for breakfast / lunch: Katz's, Russ & Daughters, 2nd Ave Deli, etc...

re: sgordon
I still like 21. There are a whole lot of non-tourists in there all the time.
But I do know what you mean...although I can't name many "high end classic NYC places" that are like those you mentioned. La Grenouille for example is a classic NYC place, and although plenty of tourists go there, there is nothing "trap" about it. A lot of tourists go to Babbo, that doesn't make it a "tourist trap." Tourists go to good restaurants all the time, in part thanks to CH!
And lots of bad overpriced restaurants that coast on their reputations and PR are filled with locals!

True, Babbo is a classic. I guess I wasn't specific enough - I meant old-school classic, landmark places. The places tourists had heard of before there was a Food Network. The above, Four Seasons, Tavern On The Green, etc.

Also, Elaine's, RIP.
Wasn't RTR closed, or threatening to be closed, at one point some years ago?
And, yes, I'll add my sighting: Jack Lemmon, out of the corner of my eye, about 15-18 years ago.
re: sgordon
I know it is touristy, but I love Delmonico's. The food is good and the price is fine. For out of towners looking for a New York landmark, it fits the bill.
56 Beaver Street, New York, NY 10004
re: jfp123
I must disagree about the food at Demonico's. I had a gift certificate to use there once and found the entire experience a disappointment, would not return...also does not fit the spec for theater district/midtown.
56 Beaver Street, New York, NY 10004
re: City Kid
I hate that your experience at Delmonico's was poor. I have been there several times and always fared well. You are correct that it does not fit the request for midtown, but I guess I sidetracked by the discussion of what does or does not constitute "tourist trap" and "classic" NYC restaurants.
re: jfp123
My good friend Newland Archer loves the place.

text: Zubeydah asked: > Why *isn't* there a peerage for rapier combat? > or > Why isn't the order of the chivalry for all kinds of combat, both heavy > and > light, archery, and thrown weaponry? The short answer is the legal maxim: "The life of the law has not been logic; it has been experience." The group of people who eventually became the SCA knighted somebody at their first event. So there is knighthood. Two years later, they established the Order of the Laurel, for non-fighting contributions, which very quickly meant A&S or service. Several years later, it became clear that the Laurel was really a group of workers and a group of artists, pretending to be one group. So the Pelican was founded, and some service Laurels switched. No new peerages have been created since then, more than thirty years ago. Fencing isn't even legal in all kingdoms, and is looked down on in some in which it *is* legal. (Sometimes for valid reasons. An activity will eventually get the reputation that the people involved in it deserve.) Since it isn't universally respected, an SCA-wide peerage cannot be established. There are other reasons, but this one is sufficient. But that's OK. Tivar, Ansgar, Miguel, and I (and all the other White Scarves) don't get respect from the precedence level of our fencing Order; instead, the White Scarf gains respect from us and what we do. People who only get respect based on their awards get very little respect indeed. Robin of Gilwell / Jay Rudin

Figure skater Ashley Wagner competed in the ladies' short program yesterday at Sochi. Even without a tragic stumble, her scores were lower than expected. Deja vu much? Not quiteupon seeing the judges' marks this time around, Wagner seemed positively (incredulously) amused by it all, grinning before turning to say something that, this time, wasn't "bullshit" to her coaches. Then with a little shrug, she waved for the cameras like all good Olympians do.
Enjoy a GIF and please do try to decipher her commentsI'm stuck at "it was that guy... something something... pizza?" but that's probably not right:

What was the reason? The reason was, Germany was defeated in the first world war. And the intellectuals tend to fight among themselves. They argue, rationalize, philosophize; they are not physically active people. And they are egoists. They think they have found the secret of life, every one of them.
After its defeat in the first world war, Germany was in a chaos. The chaos created Adolf Hitler, because he promised, and he fulfilled the promise, "I can make this country again united, again strong, so strong that it can rule over the whole world."
It was something that was immensely needed. People were not working, people were not being creative. Somebody was needed to make the country again creative, disciplined. And Adolf Hitler filled the gap. Within ten years Germany was again a world power.
Strange - if you give people freedom, they become lazy, they don't want to work. But if you give them a fascist order, they work to their very potential; they create, they are united, they become strong.
Germany went on winning for five years. That proved that the people of Germany had chosen the right person - the whole world on one side, and he alone was enough.
He gave the intelligentsia their ego as nobody had given them before. He said to them that the Nordic German race is the purest Aryan race, and it is its destiny to rule over the world, because all others are subhuman. It was tremendously gratifying. The intellectual ego was very much fulfilled, and even a man like Martin Heidegger fell into the trap.
Only after Hitler was defeated and Germany was almost destroyed, then people started looking back at what they had done, what kind of man they were supporting: a monster, a murderer who has killed millions of people - perhaps the greatest murderer in the whole history.
So remember one thing: freedom is not license. Freedom is responsibility. And if you cannot take your responsibility yourself, then somebody is going to take the responsibility on your behalf. And then you are enslaved.
People have been asking me how it happened that five thousand people, almost all university graduates, having the best qualifications from the best universities of the world, could not see for four years.
The reason is, Sheela was not only doing something ugly and fascist, she was also creating the commune. She was also making the desert into an oasis. She was making the commune comfortable in every way. Every coin has two sides.
So you looked at the light side. And you were surrounded - which Sheela and her group created - with hostility in Oregon. That is a simple political strategy.
Adolf Hitler, in his autobiography My Struggle, says that if you want a nation to be strong, create enemies all around it; otherwise, people relax. Keep them continuously in paranoia, fearing that there is danger all around.

The OSSolution team have thought of everything you could possibly want and more. There are oodles of advanced functionality, loads of Modules and smooth integrations. The translation functionality is excellent which lets you change all titles etc without touching a line of code. But if you do want to the PHP and style sheets are easy to modify to make it just perfect.
I spec'ed out a pretty large site for a customer that needed some very specific event booking requirements (training courses) and this extension had 95% of the functionality I required! The rest was a breeze to add with the help of the OSSolution team. Saved me months of development. They are not only super responsive but very very talented developers indeed. I'm starting to think there is nothing they can't do.
I completely recommend this extension and these guys. 5 Stars!!

ATLANTA (AP) Ś As Southern states cracked down on so-called pill mills, GeorgiaÆs lax regulation made it a magnet for clinics known for prescribing powerful painkillers to drug dealers and addicts for an illicit high.
The dozens of pain clinics across Georgia that authorities believe are illegally prescribing or dispensing the drugs often have parking lots full of out-of-state license plates, evidence that people are coming from hundreds of miles to seize on an unregulated industry, authorities say. The rapid spread of the clinics led state senators to pass legislation Thursday to try to get rid of illegitimate businesses.
ōWeÆre one of the few states in the Southeast that hasnÆt touched it, so weÆre the place that all these out-of-towners come,ö said Attorney General Sam Olens. ōItÆs a huge problem thatÆs killing our kids, and we need to be going after the bad actors and protecting the professionals.ö
The bill would license and regulate pain management clinics, and require the owner to be a doctor. The law would stop short of requiring doctors or pharmacists to use a state registry so that authorities can track how much of a painkiller a person is receiving. The bill, which already passed the House, now goes to Republican Gov. Nathan Deal. A spokesman declined to say whether the governor would sign it.
Because some pain clinics are legitimate, prosecuting those that arenÆt can be difficult, said Barbara Heath, the head of the Drug Enforcement AdministrationÆs diversion program in Georgia, Tennessee, North Carolina and South Carolina. If the prescriber is a doctor Ś and not someone forging prescriptions Ś prosecutors must prove the pills arenÆt for a medical need.
Red flags include clinics with a large percentage of out-of-state patients, patients receiving the same large amount of the same drug and clinics with a bouncer at the door.
Kentucky, Ohio, Tennessee, West Virginia, Texas, Louisiana, Florida and Mississippi have all recently passed laws targeting such pain clinics, according to the National Conference of State Legislatures.
The DEA is prosecuting pain clinic operators who used to do business in Florida and picked up and moved to Georgia immediately after Florida passed tougher restrictions in 2011. But itÆs hard to tell exactly how many pill mills exist in Georgia.
According to estimates from the Georgia Drugs and Narcotics Agency, there were fewer than 10 pill mills in the state in 2010, while the number has exploded since then, fluctuating between 90 and 140 over the last year.
The most common pills dealers and addicts want are oxycodone and hydrocodone, which are highly addictive. Some shop around the state, gathering prescriptions from numerous clinics before returning home to sell the drugs.
Georgia passed legislation in 2011 to create a program to track prescription drugs dispensed here, but it isnÆt expected to start operating until May, in part because of a delay in funding.
ōIf someone were to ask me what would be the best first step to really trying to curtail this problem, I would say get the (program) up and going because thatÆs the information tool thatÆs going to tell you whoÆs prescribing what and whoÆs receiving what pills,ö said Sherry Green, CEO of the National Alliance for Model State Drug Laws.
DeKalb County District Attorney Robert James, who has made prosecuting rogue pain clinics a priority, said the easy access in Georgia also leads more people in this state to become addicted.
He said a person with a knee injury can get a legitimate prescription for painkillers, and once itÆs gone, they can just go to a pain clinic to get more.
A pain clinic is defined in the bill as a medical enterprise where at least half of the patient population is being treated for chronic pain. Affected businesses would have to get a state license beginning in July. Licenses would have to be renewed every two years.
The proposal would also require new pain clinics to be owned by physicians licensed in Georgia. Existing clinics where non-physicians have ownership with doctors would be allowed to remain open.
Green, of the National Alliance for Model State Drug Laws, said requiring owners to be doctors is an important step because their livelihood is at stake.
ōSo the thought is youÆve got to have somebody with that level of accountability with a pain clinic because youÆre giving out substances that are the most potentially addictive substances we have,ö she said.

Well, this is awkward. Jon Stewart had the unenviable task of responding with humor to the bizarre spectacle that was his friend Rep. Anthony Weiner's big reveal—both in sexting form and in the congressman's eventual admission of guilt—on Monday's "Daily Show." Stewart's writers didn't give him much wiggle room on this one, either, but sometimes the cringe-worthy can be funny. —KA

The proceedings were not public, and lawyers involved in the case declined to comment.
The three 16-year-old boys are each charged with sexual battery, dissemination of child pornography and possession of child pornography.
Attorneys and family members of the defendants were seen entering juvenile court, the San Jose Mercury News reported ( http://bit.ly/17F9Ye6). Relatives of Audrie Pott, who hanged herself after a humiliating photo of her on the night of the attack circulated, were also there.
Attorney Eric Geffon, who represents one of the three suspects, had previously told The Associated Press that attorneys representing all three boys would have a statement Tuesday after the hearing, but no statement was issued and Geffon did not return calls seeking comment.
Santa Clara County Deputy District Attorney Jaron Shipp said he couldn't comment or provide any information on the case because the boys are juveniles.
Meanwhile, Robert Allard, an attorney for Audrie's family, announced Tuesday that they have filed a claim with the Los Gatos-Saratoga Union High School District over what they say was negligence by school administrators in addressing bullying they say Audrie suffered while a student at Saratoga High School.
Filing a claim is a necessary step before a lawsuit can be filed against a public agency.
Allard claims school administrators did not act on bullying concerns brought up to the principal who preceded the school's current principal, Paul Robinson, and that Robinson proclaimed that bullying was not the cause of Audrie's Sept. 10 suicide despite having knowledge of the police investigation into the alleged assault.
"That caused a great deal of anxiety for the family," Allard said. "From the mother's perspective, it was extremely inappropriate and insensitive for the school to have announced to the student body Audrie's passing before the family even understood that she had passed."
A call to the school district late Tuesday seeking comment was not immediately returned.

Limerick Supermarket, which is on Central Avenue, said around 11:35 p.m. Friday, someone stole its giving tree.
The tree had decorations and lights, along with about a dozen tags, each with the name of an item that children in the community wanted.
An employee with the store said the tree was outside so people could grab a tag even if the store was closed.
The assistant manager told News 8 the main goal is to get the tags back, so the children can get the gifts they asked for.

Echoes Interlude Lyrics - Tyga
The ceiling's falling in, everytime you don't know where you've been
Our love, seventeen to lifetime
The seasons change when we all stay the same
The pain I felt back then won't ever go away
Echoes call me back to the feeling again
Echoes call me back to the feeling again
Echoes call me back to the feeling again
At this point, I realize love is not an emotion I can neglect
My queen thought I wasn't ready for love. She was right
What did love mean to me? It didn't mean anything
Compassion, affection... I just know I wanna win it back
Can't be a king without love

Gibson and Cole dismissals overturned
Everton midfielder Darron Gibson and West Ham striker Carlton Cole have both seen their red cards during last Saturday's clash at Upton Park overturned following successful appeals.
Gibson was dismissed by referee Anthony Taylor for a high challenge on Mark Noble in the Toffees' 2-1 win, while Cole was ordered off for a tackle on Everton's England full-back Leighton Baines.
Both players will now see potential three-match suspensions written off.

Hey Everyone,
Sorry I haven't been around too much.

So great to hear from you, Adrienne! Sounds like you have a lot on your plate right now, but good for you for being able to recognize it and get the help you need. When I was going to my therapist, I would sometimes get all nervous before the session, especially if I had something really big to talk to her about, but I would always leave feeling much better than before I went in.
If the boards are too much for you right now, have you thought about stepping down as CL? We all love you and love having you as our CL, but if it's too much of a burden right now then we completely understand. I think we can all appreciate you needing to take time for yourself right now with everything you've got going on.
Your new siggy of the many faces of baby James is adorable! Did you make it yourself?

Adrienne, I'm so glad to hear you're feeling better already. I had noticed you were absent a lot more but thought this was just down to having had a baby (and we all know how that keeps you busy 24/7!).
I'm glad James took the sick day off and you got a bit of a break! Hope the therapy will help you even more.
|Thu, 05-12-2011 - 12:25pm
Glad to hear you're starting to feel better Adrienne! It's a lot to deal with, and I'm glad you have and are using some support. ((hugs!))
|Tue, 05-17-2011 - 12:22pm
Adrienne - HUGS!! I know I am a bit late to the party on this one, but I wanted to still reach out and give you some virtual hugs and support. I have had to put Gabby down somewhere safe and walk away from her for a bit too. I am glad that James was able to stay home.
How are you doing this week?

A Burnsville store clerk, angered by a man's request to use the bathroom and fill his water bottle, threatened to club a man with a baseball bat and shoot him last week, according to charges.
Mahmoud Ahmed Alsharif, 47, of Rosemount, was charged with felony terroristic threats stemming from the incident Wednesday at Super Gas USA, at 1500 Southcross Drive.
According to the criminal complaint, a man, his girlfriend and her 4-year-old son entered the store about 2:50 p.m., and the man asked Alsharif whether there was a faucet he could use to fill his water bottle. Alsharif told the man that the bathroom and faucet were for customers only. The clerk began yelling and threatened to shoot them.
After feeling around under the counter, according to the man, Alsharif raised his hand in the shape of a gun and said, "I'm going to shoot you in the head!"
Alsharif then grabbed a silver baseball bat and followed the three out of the store, holding it near the back of the man's head, according to the complaint.
The woman said Asharif also was angry that the boy had used the bathroom. She said that her attempt to buy juice was rejected by the clerk, who pushed it away and said he was not a slave.
Alsharif admitted being angered that the three wanted to use the bathroom because they were not customers. He also acknowledged the conflict over the juice that the woman wanted to buy.
Officers located a pellet gun under the counter.

Easy-to-follow video tutorials help you learn software, creative, and business skills.Become a member
One of the brightest new features in OneNote 2010 is the ability to share your notebooks over the web. If you have a Windows Live account, you can use SkyDrive now to store the notebook, share it with others who can access it from any computer connected to the Internet from anywhere, and in fact you don't even have to have OneNote installed to be able to view and edit the contents. We're going to start in this lesson by simply sharing a notebook. We're working with the TwoTrees notebook. With the User Conference tab selected, I'm looking at my Conference Overview.
You could really have any notebook opened at this point though, looking at any of the sections and pages. Now if you wanted to create a brand-new notebook and share it using the web, you would go to Share tab and use the first button in the Shared Notebook group, which is to create a new Shared notebook. You'd have to provide a name for you notebook and then choose the web as the location. But if you already have the notebook, you would choose Share This Notebook. So let's click there. Now you don't have to provide the name. It's already provided. Share On with Web selected, you're going to see these options down below.
Now if you're not already logged in to your Windows Live account, you can do so by clicking the Windows Live SkyDrive link. This will launch your default browser and allow you to sign in. If you don't have a Windows Live account, you can use the link at the bottom, Sign up for Windows Live SkyDrive. And now you'll have that free space. Or if you already have your account and you don't need to launch the browser and go sign in, you can do it right from here in OneNote by clicking the Sign In button. As soon as you click there, you will see all of the options available to you. If you're already signed in, you won't be prompted for your username and password or your email address and password.
And if you are signed in, you'll just see what's available to you on your SkyDrive. In my case you're seeing the defaults. A folder called My Documents, which is automatically shared with just me. So it is a shared folder but I'm the only one with the access. There is also a Public folder that is shared with everyone. You would only put things in the Public folder that you would let anyone access. The other option is to create a new Shared Folder. Let's do that. We'll click New Shared Folder. It's going to flip you over to your Windows Live account. And if you're already logged in, you're going to see we're ready to create a new folder called New Folder, but we type right over that.
Let's type in Two Trees and click Next. Now by default, you're going to have an empty folder that's shared with just you. If you want to change permissions, click the Just me link and click Edit permissions. Here's where you can go to decide who has access to it. Now if you've got friends set up in Windows Live, you can go up a level to Some friends. Here you'll see those friends can add, edit details, and delete files. You can go up to Friends, which is a higher level, My friends and their friends, or Everyone, which is the same as a public folder.
So let's just go down to Some friends here. Click the drop-down. And let's say we only want them to be able to view not actually change those files. Now down below you can add specific people if you wanted to by entering an e-mail address. Go ahead and type one in if you've got one handy and click Save. Now you're going to see a list of who has access to it as soon as you send off your message. So you can see I'm sending a message. You can add a little bit of a blurb here if you wanted to, but let's just click Send and off it goes.
So we changed permissions for this folder. And down below you can see the status has changed to people I selected. And you can always go back there to see who that is. But let's switch back to OneNote now because all we've done is shared our current notebook. And you can see here after creating a new folder on Windows Live SkyDrive like we just did, we have to click Refresh to see the updated folder list, so the two default folders and our new one called Two Trees. We haven't shared the actual notebook. All we've done is created the folder that will be shared with people.
Now when we click Share Notebook, it's our current notebook that will be shared. You can see it's connecting to the notebook location and it will be uploaded there. And just like when we share a notebook using a network drive for example, you'll have the opportunity to send that e- mail to people telling them about this shared notebook, providing the link so they can go directly to it and access the information in the notebook. And there we go. There's that message. You may be prompted if you're not signed in to add your email address and password to create the actual shared notebook on the web, but you will eventually see this message allowing you to e-mail a link to the people that you want to share this with or simply click No, Thanks and just know that it has now been shared.
It's available to you over the web in your Windows Live SkyDrive. So in the next lesson we'll talk about how to access that using a browser and the Microsoft OneNote Web App.
