Press Release
June 18, 2014
Susan Davis Votes to Advance VA Reforms
WASHINGTON – The House of Representatives today, with the support of U.S. Rep. Susan Davis, advanced reforms to the Department of Veterans Affairs in a bipartisan unanimous vote.
"The VA is dealing with an incredibly large influx of veterans seeking care," said Rep. Davis, a senior member of the House Armed Services Committee. "Congress must provide the VA with the resources, flexibility and guidance to meet our veterans' needs."
Both the House and the Senate are moving forward on legislation to make changes at the VA. The reforms include hiring more doctors and nurses at the VA, requiring the Department to contract out to non-VA facilities to reduce the backlog, and creating greater accountability.
Each chamber's bills will have to be reconciled into one bill before it can be sent to the President for his signatures. The vote in the House moved that process forward.
Also today, Acting VA Secretary Sloan D. Gibson announced a new initiative of monthly site inspections across veterans health facilities. The monthly in-person reviews will scrutinize the scheduling practices of every clinic within the VA's jurisdiction.
While long waits have been reported across the nation, the San Diego VA fulfills more than 99 percent of requests for primary care appointments within 14 days. Specialist appointments are filled within 14 days 98 percent of the time.

I am reviewing some of my wifes credit accounts, and I've found this charge:
3.00$ Monthly Member Fee
So I emailed customer service, and this was their reply:
Thanks for contacting us about your Capital One account.
The current account terms on your account include a monthly membership
fee of $3.00, which will be billed on December 2010. This fee is
assessed on the statement cycle date of each month. This fee is due even
if you do not use your card. The monthly membership fee is charged in
order to offset costs associated with your account, such as zero fraud
liability, 24/7 customer service, and the special products and services
we offer.
If you have any questions, please give us a call at 1-800-955-7070. Our
Customer Service Representatives are available 24 hours a day, 7 days a
Capital One
So here is my question, the 3.00$ a month charge seems like something I can opt out of, but this response back makes it look like this is just a fee to have the right to have this card, any thoughts? I understand a yearly membership fee for cards that have great miles/cash rewards. But this is a standard card..that offers zero liability and 24/7 customer service, that is not worth 3.00$
I am just trying to clean this up as the wife does not use her credit cards much..and we have come very close in missing making the payment (On the 3.00$ fee).
This is simply an annual fee on your account that they are charging you monthly, instead of $36 at one time. You can call customer service and threaten to cancel your card to see if they will take the fee off, but be careful because they may just close the card as you request.
Never hurts to give them a call and at least ask if it can be waived.
Ugh this sucks. We don't want to close this card, but a card with annual fee that doesn't have great cashback/rewards program?

Deloitte partners with Quattro, NXG for cloud and enterprise
Summary: The firm has added two more consultancy firms to its stable, partnering with Quattro to boost its cloud and CRM capabilities, and with NXG to provide better EPM solutions.
International professional services firm Deloitte has announced two new partnerships with cloud consultancy company Quattro Innovation Group and SAP provider NXG Business Solutions.
Announced early on Wednesday morning, the collaboration with Quattro will see 20 staff members move into Deloitte's Sydney office and will expand the company's customer relationship management (CRM) applications and cloud offerings on Google and Salesforce, according to Deloitte Australia Consulting managing partner Adam Powick.
"This is one of three transactions in our technology practice that we have announced over the last five weeks, and only highlights the increasing demand for cutting-edge technology by both private and public sector organisations," Powick said.
"This transaction will significantly strengthen our CRM technology design and implementation capability across a broad range of industries and private and public sector organisations, with Google and Salesforce, both considered leaders in providing innovative customer service applications."
In February this year, an international survey commissioned by enterprise applications vendor IFS and conducted by analyst firm IDC found that enterprises want mobile CRM applications more than any other business applications.
The partnership will benefit Quattro by providing better career progression for its staff and a more varied customer base, according to Quattro managing director David Tan.
The deal with NXG will increase Deloitte's SAP resources and enterprise performance management (EPM) solutions in the government, mining, finance, manufacturing, education, and utilities sectors, with 30 new professionals joining the company's SAP teams in Sydney, Melbourne, and Brisbane.
"Joining Deloitte will deliver the critical mass required to meet the increasing demands of business and government organisations seeking to dramatically improve performance by leveraging the information and technological processes," said NXG CEO Scott Taylor.
These partnerships follow similar purchases by the company this year and last: In August, Deloitte's New Zealand arm announced its buyout of SAP specialist Tango and Oracle implementation firm Asparona, citing "differentiated growth opportunities"; in July, it bought Canadian SAP specialist Quattro Integration Group to reinforce its capacity in the energy and resources industry; in March, it purchased Netherlands-based Salesforce provider Vivens; in February 2012, it acquired Melbourne SAP firm Logro; and in March 2012, it merged software-as-a-service IT provider Aggressor into its business.
"Acquisitions are one way of reaching new clients and providing new capabilities and advanced offerings. Delivering world-class technology services, and therefore improving clients' business operations, will help grow the Deloitte brand overall," Deloitte's Los Angeles-based consulting global technology leader Bill Allison told ZDNet in September.

Anger Busters Anger Management Programs
If you or someone you love is struggling with chronic outbursts of uncontrolled anger, you know the pain and destruction these events can cause. Maybe you have tried counseling, read books, listened to tapes – even investigated special medications, but the anger still erupts in ways and at times that creates havoc on the job or in your personal life. Maybe you are just ready to give up. Please don't – there is hope.
Our Anger Busters Anger Management Classes are uniquely targeted to assist people with chronic anger problems by providing them with the tools and skills they need to change NOW! Most other anger management counseling programs treat anger as if it were simply a symptom of some other problem – and sometimes it is. However, the time and expense it requires to deal with anger issues in traditional therapy programs make this approach unfeasible. You need help, and you need it right now.
The Anger Busters Anger Management Course is based on the premise that many with chronic anger problems have become addicted to anger the way an alcoholic is addicted to beer or spirits. We refer to those with this condition as "rageaholics." Our Anger Busters anger management techniques – based on the nationally acclaimed Anger Busters Workbook by James A. Baker – function much like the principles of a 12-step program used to successfully treat many types of addictive behaviors. Countless numbers of individuals and families around the country have benefited from this material to achieve meaningful, lasting success in healing chronic anger. With this kind of help so readily available, there is no need to suffer for another day.
During the Anger Busters Anger Management Training Program participants will learn:

Maryland: Baltimore, Rockville, and Bethesda-Chevy Chase
Baltimore is Maryland's largest city and a popular
vacation destination. Nicknamed "Charm City,"
Baltimore has become a top tourist destination.
Baltimore was established by the colonial government
in 1729 and thrived as a port city. Today, the
city thrives around the original port and inner
harbor area. The Inner Harbor is now the city's
central tourist location.
is the fifth largest city in Maryland and is the
county seat of Montgomery County. It occupies
13.03 square miles within the metropolitan Washington,
D.C. area and is located 12 miles northwest of
the nation's capital. A major portion of
the prestigious I-270 corridor is within the City's
corporate limits. The City of Rockville operates
under the council-manager form of municipal government
and derives its governing authority from a charter
granted by the General Assembly of Maryland.
Bethesda-Chevy Chase
Greater Bethesda-Chevy Chase Chamber of Commerce
prides itself on having a proactive government
affairs program. A portion of the annual dues
goes to the retaining of a public affairs consultant,
Ron Resh, who promotes the Chamber's positions
and keeps abreast of important issues as they
arise on the state level in Annapolis and on the
local level in Rockville, the county seat.
Violence Prevention in Baltimore
Baltimore has long suffered from high yearly
counts of homicides. During the 1990s, however,
Baltimore experienced more than three hundred
homicides per year between 1990 and 1997, with
a 30-year high peak of 353 homicides in 1993.
In 1996 and 1997, Baltimore had the fourth highest
homicide rate in the United States among cities
with more than 250,000 residents. Beginning
in 1998, with the support of the Baltimore Safe
and Sound Campaign, David Kennedy and Anthony
Braga have facilitated a working group comprised
of Baltimore Police Department officers, Baltimore
State's Attorney's Office and U.S. Attorney's
Office prosecutors, probation and parole officers,
juvenile corrections officers, and federal law
enforcement agencies (ATF, FBI, and DEA). The
working group engaged a problem-solving enterprise
to unravel the dynamics underlying the homicide
problem, develop a comprehensive violence reduction
strategy, and implement the strategy.

If you're looking for the best of golf, nature and nightlife, base yourself at two of the island's venerable north-coast resorts, the Wyndham El Conquistador, an hour's drive east of San Juan near the port town of Fajardo, and the Hyatt Dorado Beach, 45 minutes west of the capital city in Dorado. I headed first for El Conquistador, making a mandatory lunch stop at one of the roadside stands on Route 3, where a dollar buys a crispy corn fritter filled with seasoned beef, pork or chicken. Greasy and delicious.
Perched on 300-foot-high cliffs where the Atlantic Ocean and Caribbean Sea meet, the Wyndham's theatrical setting was used in the 1964 James Bond movie Goldfinger. Check into the new Las Casitas Village, where you'll find spacious Spanish-style villas with balconies and full kitchens. They're close to the resort's golf course and Golden Door Spa, and are quieter than the 750-room main resort. Each villa has its own butler, available 24 hours to help with everything from unpacking bags to procuring those coladas. Because of the Wyndham's cliffside setting, Palomino Island, a 15-minute ferry ride east, serves as the resort's private beach. Surrounding coral reefs protect dozens of species of tropical fish, making for colorful snorkeling.
Equally colorful is the resort's Arthur Hills-designed course, a roller-coaster ride opened in 1993 with 200 feet in elevation change, tight, undulating fairways and ever-changing trade winds. Although just 6,746 yards from the back, it's not your typical, easygoing resort track. The trouble starts on No. 1, a 395-yard dogleg-right with sweeping views of the 3,500-foot peaks of El Yunque rainforest to the southwest and the ocean to the north. You'll be distracted for just a second, as the hole demands a precise tee shot to a landing area 75 feet below, with dense brush to the left and a 30-foot drop-off to the right. The key to managing "El Con," as locals call it, is to leave your driver in the bag and keep the ball in play.

The BMW i3 prototype has now dropped some camouflage and we've spied it testing in Munich.
This particular prototype is the range-extended hybrid model (as indicated by the sticker affixed to the prototype) instead of the pure electric model.

Punch Grill - Wilshire and Santa Monica (review)
- s
- southbay hound Jul 19, 2006 10:19 PM
Checked out the new place, Punch American Grill on Wilshire in Santa Monica/West LA. Used to be Ocean Star. New owners spent a lot of coin fixing up the place. Inside is very clubby/modern with flat screen tv's, nice bar area, new booths, etc. Very nice. Menu has appetizers, soups, salads, entree salads, pastas, entrees, sandwiches, and desserts.
Prices for appetizers are a little steep - $9-$10 for a salad or soup. Sandwiches and Entrees range from $12 up to low $20s. There is a good selection of fish, meat, chicken, and pasta dishes. Apps look really promising. Onion Soup was good and hearty. Maui onion salad with avocado and manchego cheese was very tasty but portion was small. Caesar salad was solid too. Other apps we didn't have included pan roasted mussells, spinach fondue dip, roasted artichoke with aoli. Salads were very varied and sounded good.
Seared ahi sandwich was a nice portion. Bread was okay - not great but the ahi more than made up for it. Nice cut. Seared perfectly. Grilled chicken sandwich came on a tasty baguette with onions and cheese. Lots of sides to choose from but the onion rings may be the way to go. Some of the best I've had in LA - light, crispy with a peppery hint. Excellent rings. Desserts change daily. Service was professional and was very interested in hearing comments. The place doesn't have the best signage outside but the area could always use a new upscale lunch spot. We'll be back.
re: bocarw
3001 Wilshire Blvd., Santa Monica, 90403-2301, NE corner Stanford if I remember correctly. Was formerly Royal Star, owned by Ocean Star in Monterey Park.
I really enjoyed the atmosphere in this restaurant, very upscale. We were a party of four and the high-back booths gave us a little more of a "private party" feeling.
The Texan in our group commented that this was one of the few places in the area that he could find a great variety of beef dishes. Personally, I prefer lighter food and settled on an aspargus/crab salad which really hit the spot. There's also burgers, fish, a great variety of appetizers (artichoke fondue!)...something for everyone.
The bar is nicely set up and not too crowed (yet, anyway). Lots of wide screens and I could imagine it would be a good spot for Monday Night Football.They said they will soon be getting some music in on the weekends so I'll check in again to see what change that makes.
From the street, I hadn't really noticed this restaurant but, now that I've been in, I'll go back and see how it evolves. Definitely a place worth checking out.
wonderful place with warm, friendly service...everyone is eager to please and the food is all excellent
we are looking for a new neighborhood place around santa monica i went on their website and just felt that the menu was all over the place- seems like an upscaled hamburger hamlet- i'll wait for some more hounds to weigh in- until then its- drago-nagao-nanbakan-capo-yada yada
To: coastcash...
I think you're selling yourself short by not at least going in and checking the place out. If the website said "hamburget hamlet" to you, you got the wrong impression. If you're in the neighborhood, give it a try! I'm glad we did.
Oh, and there's music on the weekends now and it's getting a little busier so you might want to reserve in advance!
I recently visited Punch Grill whilst visiting from London. Despite living in a city that boast a fabulous variety of restuarant choices, Punch Grill blew me away. My boyfriend (Italian man who is a chef so you can imagine the food snobbery at hand) and I were both so impressed with the food, we will definitely return upon our next visit to Los Angeles.
I had dinner at Punch Grill about a month ago. It was one of the best restaurants I've been to for a while. Everything was great. I ordered the tuna tartar and somehow I forgot I ordered that and ordered the seared tuna for my entree. The tartar was great. Anyway, as I bang my head on the table for ordering tuna twice....After a bite of my entree, I was wishing I had my friends dinner. She ordered the Filet Mignon. We had a great bottle of Sauvignon Blanc.
I've been there three times and each time I have encountered really poor service. Unfortunately the poor service far outweighs the food experience which is quite good.
I will have a hard time liking this place as it took overf from the westsides only decent Dim Sum joint (VIP doesn't do it for me)! Royal star was the only place (including SF and Monterey Park) that I have seen the baked char siu bun with a egg-washed crispy crumble on top.
ok. now thats off my chest...
I will try this "American Bistro" thing out real soon. I sure hope its going to fit my idea of bistro (simple, hearty fare that is sourced fresh and seasonal). If so, this will be a real boon to the area!
BTW... I can't find the website, anyone got a link?
edit... found it: duhhh. its http://www.punchgrill.com/
If you enjoy interesting burgers, Punch has the best one ever - The Lamb & Feta Cheese Burger. Outstanding! Be sure to request it topped off with extra feta then the flavors become explosive. My mouth waters just writing about this burger. Can't wait to have another.

Other nations would negate any U.S. attempt to tackle climate change
LETTERS TO THE EDITOR August 23, 2013 3:44PM
AP file
Updated: September 26, 2013 6:37AM
In an editorial last Wednesday ["Global warming is real, and it's our fault — let's fix it"], the Sun-Times was right to recognize any attempt to reduce global temperatures by a significant amount is going to require global cooperation. But I think the editorial board is overly optimistic about the likelihood of a future international agreement to limit carbon emissions. According to the International Energy Agency, China, India and Germany already are expanding coal consumption and increasing emissions. In fact, coal is the world's fastest-growing fossil fuel, according to the BP Statistical Review of World Energy 2013. Unless a new source of electricity generation emerges that's cheaper than coal, these trends are likely to continue, no matter what any international spokesperson might say.
With the EPA having just announced earlier this year that U.S. greenhouse gas emissions have been declining since 2007, is it really worth enacting costly greenhouse gas-restricting regulations without it having any effect on the climate?

Kids need healthy choices
At a time when there's a new story in the paper each morning about another food or drink that must be avoided for health reasons, it was refreshing to learn about Chicago's progress toward eliminating food deserts ["City's food deserts drying up as healthy choices move in," Aug. 15]. We need a day-to-day environment in which healthy options are available, because without options in what we eat and drink, health initiatives undoubtedly will fail. If extra-large sodas are the only beverage available on a teenager's walk home from school, he will, of course, walk home sipping on the sugary beverage. However, if water, tea and juices are available — if he has choices available in his day-to-day environment — he will have the opportunity to make the choice that is best for him.
There is still much more work to do to improve the health of Chicagoans and their neighborhoods, but it's great to see the engagement of the public sector, private sector and nonprofits towards eradicating food deserts. By working together, we can do more to successfully address complex issues and I look forward to seeing continued results of this initiative and others.
Edgar Pineda, Little Village

As many of us have been saying since the advent of cyber insurance coverage, cyber policies potentially cover privacy risks and exposures, not Commercial General Liability policies, be it under a property damage or a personal/advertising injury insuring agreement. In other words, policyholders and their brokers would be mistaken if they deluded themselves into thinking that a standard base CGL policy's personal injury/advertising injury coverage applies to a typical cyber breach where personally identifiable information is extracted. Sadly, my good friend Scott Godes falls into this category.
On February 21, 2014, , Judge Jeffrey K. Oing, of the New York Supreme Court, Manhattan Commercial Division ratified this maxim by denying personal injury coverage to Sony for the 2011 breach and theft of personal information from its PS3 gaming platform, among other databases. Zurich American Insurance Company v. Sony Corporation of America, Index No. 651982/2011 (N.Y. Supreme, filed 7/20/2011). See Complaint here.
According to Law360, (subscription required), Judge Oing issued a bench order following oral argument that AI/PI coverage potentially applies only if the policyholder actively participated in the unlawful conduct and does not extend to the misconduct of an unauthorized third-party. To hold otherwise, the Court said, would be to unlawfully expand a CGL policy's coverage beyond its intended scope.
Quoting from Law 360, Judge Oing reportedly stated that the CGL policy before him "requires policyholders to commit the acts, it does not extend to third parties" under New York law. Where, as in the case before him, an unauthorized intruder publishes the stolen PII, there is no PI/AI offense committed by the affected policyholder.
And, of course, this is both commercially and logically sensible. What Sony effectively was trying to accomplish was to convert claims for negligent cybersecurity into a potentially insurable personal injury claim. Of course, the flip side of such a creative argument is to suggest that the policyholder somehow may have been complicit in the improper publication of PII. We obviously know that is not what Sony was arguing (or what actually happened); nonetheless, entrepreneurial plaintiffs' attorneys would be more than happy to champion such a theme in underlying litigation had Judge Oing endorsed that argument. Plaintiffs' counsel might not be right. But that's not necessarily the point in class action litigation.
Judge Oing's decision is consistent with other courts' decisions holding that PI/AI coverage is potentially triggered only where the policyholder "published" personal information. See, e.g., Butts v, Royal Vendors, Inc., 202 W. VA. 448 (1998) (PI/AI coverage potentially applies only where the policyholder itself violated a person's privacy rights, not where a third party did so).
While insurers and policyholders likely will continue to seek judicial determinations on the scope of AI/PI coverage, both constituencies should agree on the commercial implications of Judge Oing's decision. It's exponentially cheaper to buy dedicated cyber insurance and avoid future coverage disputes over PI/AI insuring agreements than continue to engage in expensive coverage litigation, whether the claim is predicated on a business's alleged failure to "prevent" unauthorized access, employee negligence or another type of Wrongful Act .
Judge Oing's decision further supports the proposition that Claims arising from the vast majority of unauthorized cybersecurity incidents would not be covered under a CGL policy's AI/PI coverage unless the policyholder itself "published" the PII.
Following this commendable logic, any potential coverage for a privacy-based Claim would fall within the purview of a monoline cyber insurance policy providing crisis management coverage. The premium charged for such a product is modest relative to the costs of coverage litigation, much less the expense of managing a cyber incident. Response costs alone could be infinite multiples of those that a policyholder would pay to implement an appropriate cybersecurity avoidance and response plan. Which, of course, includes appropriate insurance with sufficient limits of liability.
I'm sure readers are getting tired of hearing me say it. But, unfortunately, the word is not spreading fast enough. Its up to brokers in particular to understand what is and what isn't covered under a traditional CGL insurance policy and, as appropriate, look for other solutions to protect their clients against the rapidly-evolving cyber-related risks and exposures. Until they do, coverage disputes like Sony will continue to be litigated – as will the growing number of E&O claims against unsophisticated brokers.

Wired.com reports that a team of researchers at the University of California, Irvine (UCI), has received a $4 million grant to study "neuroscientific and signal-processing foundations of synthetic telepathy."
According to a university press release, the research might help communication on the battlefield as well as with stroke and paralysis patients.
The brain-computer interface would use a noninvasive brain imaging technology like electroencephalography to let people communicate thoughts to each other. For example, a soldier would "think" a message to be transmitted and a computer-based speech recognition system would decode the EEG signals. The decoded thoughts, in essence translated brain waves, are transmitted using a system that points in the direction of the intended target.
Michael D'Zmura, chair of the UCI Department of Cognitive Sciences, says that use of such a system will take extensive training, and that the system will likely start off simple and become more complex. He will colloborate on research with other UCI researchers, as well as with representatives from Carnegie Mellon University and the University of Maryland.
The grant is provided by the U.S. Department of Defense's Multidisciplinary University Research Initiative program.

Why Brands Want to Have a "Two-Way Conversation" With You
When you first hear the phrase "two-way conversation," you probably think, "Well, what other kind of conversation is there?" But when it comes to brands, this phrase embodies a very specific marketing strategy: personification. Ever since the advent of social media, brands have been trying to engage consumers in ways that make them seem more like people, rather than large corporations trying like hell to sell you products or ideas.

Some of my fondest memories were spent with the Kingdom Hearts series. Growing up equal parts Disney-kid and action-adventure fan, I was ecstatic when Kingdom Hearts was announced, and enthralled for weeks on end when it finally reached my disc tray.
Having taken a crack at the entire franchise all over again as recently as the end of last year, you'd expect that I'd be sick of hearing Haley Joel Osment by now, right? Well, HD 1.5 ReMIX managed to reel me in once again, and I'm not complaining.view full story + comments

I'm still recovering from last week's Outlast, and now we've got another bloody terrifying first-person horror title to scare our pants clean off in the form of Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs. I confess that reviews, such as our lovely Jim's, have cooled my excitement a bit, as The Chinese Room's love of story above all else has diminished the horrific terror found in the first game.
On top of Amnesia, that Killzone: Mercenary thingymabob is coming out; Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 Remix is dropping, so Squarephiles and Disneyphiles have something to get excited about; Arma III is finally leaving beta and becoming a big boy game, which is splendid, because it's rad; and everything Elder Scrolls gets collected in an anthology pack. All this and more is launching this week.

It looks like more details are coming in for Kingdom Hearts III, and things are actually looking pretty good. Although it can be expected, through a Famitsu Weekly interview it is now confirmed that the game will continue after the cliffhanger in Kingdom Hearts 3D, and will feature the "final battle [with] Master Xehanort," which the core entries have been leading up to this entire time. In short, although it doesn't preclude future Kingdom Hearts games, Kingdom Hearts III is not going to be a gaiden. and will finally bring an end to the saga that started all the way back in 2002.
Other bits of the interview include hinting at a playable Riku and Kairi, updated visuals to keep the game more in-line with Disney illustrations, an improved AI system, and a more badass Sora (now that he's gone through the Mark of Mastery Exam). More info will be revealed this October at TGS and at the D23 Expo in Japan.
If you need a recap of the franchise's story thus far, or just want to jump right into Kingdom Hearts III when it comes out, check out the "Kingdom Hearts story made easy" portion of my KH retrospective, at the bottom. It's actually not that convoluted when you take out all the side stories and "hearts darkness darkness hearts" dialog.

I keep saying that I'm tired of all of the HD-upgraded game collections coming to market for the PS3 and Xbox 360, but I'm still okay with the two that Square Enix have slated for this year. Both Kingdom Hearts HD 1.5 Remix and Final Fantasy X and X-2 HD contain games that any RPG fan would happily put at the top of their to-be-replayed list, but an HD upgrade to the titles within would make the replay experience even sweeter.
While no self-respecting RPG fan out there would have missed these titles, these re-releases give younger gamers a chance to play them on current systems, and that's a great thing.view full story + comments

Those heading through Green Bay this summer may encounter some delays and tours as a major construction project got underway this week.
The DOT is improving the Leo Frigo Memorial Bridge area and a nearly four-mile stretch of portions of the I-43 corridor including repairing three bridges, improving local intersections, and replacing deteriorating pavement. According to WLUK-TV, during the majority of construction, north and southbound I-43 will be reduced to one lane of traffic in each direction.
The project is expected to be completed by July 2013.

I know it's late...but Easter Brunch suggestions?
- c
- CharlestownCarrie Apr 2, 2007 07:20 AM
Ok, it's last minute, but I can't seem to find any Easter Brunch information on any individual websites. Anyone know if any places are doing anything special? We're three adults, and we'd prefer a buffet-style brunch, but would settle for a menu brunch if it's a good one. Boston/Cambridge would be best.
I'm not really a fan of buffets of just about any sort, except perhaps Indian food at lunch. The only buffet brunch I can recommend is the one at the Blue Room, which is amazingly big and varied, not cheap, and includes eggs and omelets cooked to order. I imagine that will be fairly insane next Sunday.
I might lean toward places that take reservations for brunch, given the inevitable crowds. That's maybe my least favorite meal to stand in line waiting for. If you haven't tried it, take a look at opentable.com, a free online reservation site that is very handy for this kind of thing.
re: MC Slim JB
Oh, yes, of course I'm looking to make a reservation - I wouldn't even think of going out for a holiday meal without one. I will check out opentable, that's a good thought.
You might want to look into Henrietta's Table at the Charles hotel in Cambridge. They do a Buffet brunch that isnt your typical buffet. Its much more upscale and the food is excellent. I know on a normal sunday its difficult to get a reservation, so i don't know that you will have much luck this close to Easter, but its definitely worth a shot!
re: NiKoLe1625
I made reservations there for Easter, based on recommendations from this group, and I think they are probably full - we got a 2:30 on March 21st. But I called them about this time as the website said brunch was over at 3PM. and I was not too happy with a 30 minute feeding frenzy experience. I learned the Easter Brunch ran until 4pm, not 3. and they were really nice. I think they will get cancellations as people double book and you might call and see if they have a wait list.
re: ginnyhw
I have a 2:30p for a party of 7 which I was going to cancel today. I am happy to transfer it into your name if you can provide one, I will hold off on the cancellation until this evening.
re: Gabatta
I might be interested in taking that 2:30 reservation from you as well. Looking to take my wife and kids into Boston, only need a table of 4.
Hyatt Regency's doing one.
Bob's Southern Bistro does a great one with live Jazz.
Harvest might too and Turner Fisheries.
Sidney's Grill in Cambridge is too
re: bolen143
Sel De La Terre on the waterfront would be fun, but go to Open Table Boston for a reservation. http://www.seldelaterre.com/
re: Taralli
Sel de la terre is a great suggestion for a "nice" place. If the daughter wants to go somewhere more sceney, I know Beehive is also doing Easter brunch.
re: bolen143
We're going to Blue Room in Cambridge.
Blue Room
1 Kendall Sq, Cambridge, MA
re: Chris VR
Here are other choices: http://www.opentable.com/promo.aspx?p...
I took my wife lats year to Henrieta's Table and it was great. Not cheap but worth the money. Doiing the family thing this year.
I did a summary article today. Opentable.com seems to have the best list of options.
I recommended La Morra, the Blue Room and L'Espalier for three different experiences.
