Near my home. My wife loves the local wine list and the appetizers are remarkable. Discounted prices before 7 PM. We dine here twice per week during our date night. Love the knowledgeable staff and cleanliness. Thank you
Don Juan's is our go to place for out of town guests we want to please. The unique south american flavors, great service and atmosphere keep us coming back again and again.
It's funny to me it used to be the best and then slipped a little. Many feel it's the best, I will say it is one of the best in town. It is worth trying if in town. It is unique South American cuisine
Me and my husband went during lunch (dinner menu was also available). There was a good variety of different kinds of food and even vegetarian dishes. Everything was very good and we will definitely be back.
This restaurant has a good menu, including gluten-free options. Service was attentive throughout and we will certainly go back there when we are next in the area
I have been by this place 59 times as I visit the school across the street from time to time. I am writing this as I enjoy the meal. First up was a cup of jalapeño beef soup. Very good flavor and a kick. I ordered the which is a whole wheat tortilla with chicken, greens and veggies in it....
We were on a long road trip and stopped to have a meal here...the Cuban Club sandwich is an extremely fresh ciabatta bun and tender pork with BBQ sauce on the side with crunch Sweet Potato Fries...truly delicious. Also the portion is large enough for two people. The Watermelon Chimichurri Salad is also delicious. We would not recommend the Squash...
This grill was a delightful surprise. We expected little and found much. TripAdvisor travelers said it was a great restaurant and it was. It is hard to find. It can be noisy (although the tables are not close together, there is just a lot of people noise and hard walls). It is even confusing finding the front door. But the...
A place we having been going to for a while and again, the food and service was great. The food is Cuban/South American fare. One of the go to dishes is the Pork Panama Dinner. If you have room for Desert, the Chimichuri (SP) is awesome. Just go........
Don Juan's is one of my favorite restaurants to eat at in Tehachapi. I have eaten here numerous time and every meal was great.

The staff was very helpful and provided us with menu and recommended places for us to eat. The hotel is located in a nice area, near a grocery store and lots of restaurants and shopping within walking distance. Breakfast was wonderful, we had hot waffles and fruit and yogurt available. There were eggs and bacon and pastries available, also. It was even better that it was included in our stay! We didnt encounter any problems during our visit. I would recommend the Best Western to everyone staying in Frederick. It was not out of our budget range and we got more than we expected! We enjoyed our time there.

Can a genre this stale make a comeback?
If obscure, niche games are what you're after, the DS is chock full of quality items, especially if you're in the market for shmups. The genre is one of the DS' strengths, and the touch screen ensures accuracy; one would assume that the system would have plenty of games in the genre utilizing the hardware well, right? Unfortunately not. While there are many different types of top-down shooters on the humble handheld, none have utilized the hardware nearly as well as they could. Big Bang Mini is the exception to the rule -- and thanks to Arkedo's audacity, it plays wonderfully.
If you aren't a grizzled veteran to the genre, Big Bang Mini will be tough; even if you are the game presents a challenge, and for some the difficulty level will be a game breaker. If you think you can handle the heat, though, Big Bang Mini's controls and design are fantastic.
Big Bang Mini is a top-down shooter spanning both DS screens, with enemies and debris mainly on the top screen. You control a small ship on the bottom screen by touch and drag, similar to the Nanostray series (although a bit more comfortable). This is very accurate and allows for some truly jaw-dropping maneuvers -- most of the time. Occasionally the game may misread a command, or just neglect it altogether. The accurate shooting more than makes up for this, however. Flick upwards on the touch screen and a bullet will go where you pointed. The easy-to-memorize controls are unique in that you cannot move your ship and shoot at the same time, which ensures the player can't blindly spam bullets while avoiding enemy fire to win.
It is a joy to play Big Bang Mini, and the engrossing control scheme breathes life into a genre on life support. The overall style of play is similar to that of Space Invaders or one of its thousands of copy-cats, but the fresh presentation, variety of modes and peerless control scheme ensure Big Bang Mini stands out from the crowd.
While the controls are simple, there are plenty of special moves to keep the game engaging. Homing missles, shields, a Ditto-esque move that steals an enemy's attack, etc. -- Big Bang Mini has all the standard spices and then some.
Despite being an excellent game, Big Bang Mini also manages to be a very portable one -- a rare accomplishment. Missions typically last a minute or two, and are addicting whether you're at home or at work; the level of challenge certainly encouraged me to compete in Challenge Mode for quite a few hours. Some boss fights you'll definitely want to revisit again and again. Perhaps most enticingly, just looking at the game is reason enough to play.
With 3D backgrounds and 2D art to represent your ship and enemies, Big Bang Mini is pure eye candy by any standard. The wacky art style is accompanied by detailed 3D, and the fireworks explosions are simply gorgeous; the technical aspects of games will be outdated in a few years, but style will last forever, and this game is proof of that. The soundtrack is equally as appealing, boasting a varied soundtrack that manages to sound great despite the low-quality DS speakers.
Longevity may present a concern for those who have been burned by the short lives of other top-down shooters, but once again Big Bang Mini prevails in this area -- Challenge Modes, Relax, Online Leaderboards, Multiplayer and an impressive 90 levels ensures you'll keep Big Bang Mini in your pocket for dozens of hours to come... If you are good at it. One design choice I feel was misguided is that the player has to unlock everything by conquering the main mode. It takes awhile to do this, and many players simply won't have the skill to do so (the final level is excruciatingly dificult).
The DS has plenty of shooters of all shapes and sizes, but in my opinion Big Bang Mini is the best one to grace the system yet. It takes full advantage of what makes a DS a DS, and in doing so is a unique fusion of classic and new gameplay that should be played by any shmup fan. Plus, it's $20.

In the above video, at exactly the 5 min. mark, Connery tells the reason. Or read below.
At his American Film Institute Lifetime Achievement show, Sean Connery said;
"I got my break—big break—when I was five years old. And it's taken me more than seventy years to realize it. You see at five, I learned to read. It's that simple, and it's that profound."
You'll notice in the above photo, Sean would rather read the newspaper during camera set-up time on From Russian with Love, than to talk to his beautiful leading lady, Daniela Bianchi.
There is also a photo of Connery taken at this basement apartment, during his pre-Bond days, lying on his sofa and reading a book.
From Abe Lincoln to Napoleon, all successful people were great readers. In fact, Napoleon traveled with a library in his large coach. When he finished a book, he would throw it out of the coach window. When someone asked, "Where is the emperor?" The answer would be, "Just follow the trail of books."
If you Google search 'Sean Connery Thunderball' you'll see him in the Bahamas standing on the end of a boat between shots of Thunderball reading a book. So even after his success, he continued broadening his mind.

How about today. One day at a time!
I am a person with good values and have a full understanding of what is truly important in life. If you have had a soulmate you truly know what I mean!!! Friends and family are important and the rest is just Stuff!!! I am a person who work smart and hard in my profession. However when it is time for fun its "party time". " At the end of the day we all all have the rest of our life". I really enjoy a good conversation over dinner or sitting in the backyard after a good BBQ with friends.My ideal match should be a person that does not think of herself as a complicated person. A woman that can enjoy a good conversation that could run late into the evening regarless of the topic. She must also be a person that can change plans on the spur of the moment for something completely different. A person that has passion for life and does not sweat the small stuff... Thanks

I recently found this gist on how to Ajaxify a Website with the HTML5 History API using History.js, jQuery and ScrollTo: https://github.com/browserstate/ajaxify
I am having a hard time getting a simple version of this working and am not sure I understand everything. First, I loaded all the scripts provided in the gist, then set up a really simple nav and content section:

Home/

Work/

Labs/

Blog/

Contact

Next, I changed the selector variables to match the html:
/* Application Specific Variables */
contentSelector = '#content',
$content = $(contentSelector),
contentNode = $content.get(0),
$menu = $('#nav'),
activeClass = 'active',
activeSelector = '.active',
menuChildrenSelector = 'li',
What I'm supposed to do next is where I get lost. All I want to do is load in html content specific to the nav link selected. So if I clicked "Work", I would like to load a work.html file into the content section and change the url to "mywebsite.com/work". To keep things easy lets say work.html and all other ajaxable content is located in the same directory.
Any help is greatly appreciated! Cheers!

New Memoir, 'A Dress, a Tie, and a Ring' is Released
Naples, FL
Author Julian R. Hanley says there are few love stories today that can take one's breath away, and even fewer that are real. This story begins with a chance sighting from across a crowded room and continues with a marriage proposal, children and a happily ever after.
"A Dress, a Tie, and a Ring," (published by WestBow Press) the truly heart-wrenching yet beautiful new memoir of 101-year-old Hanley, tells not only of his romance with his wife, Betty, but also of her horrific bout with child abuse. Betty suffered from her mother's abuse beginning from the crib until she finally eloped with Julian and was able to escape.
"There are still fairy tales for grandfathers to tell, but this one is true," Hanley said. "Like all fairy tales, this one has a scary part with an ogre of sorts, but it is a true romance with a happy ending. I felt that God lead me to Betty and I was destined to rescue her from a dreadful life of child abuse."
The accomplished author's writing style effectively conveys happiness, sadness and pain through his words. Hanley's story touches on everything from abuse, to pre-marital sex, to "the state of today's lack of morality and the benefits of moral behavior with its reward of lasting love and affection."

Carolina Ghostbusters Ready For Halloween
To say M. Doc Geressy is a "Ghostbusters" fan is like saying Polly Wogg likes Keith Urban. Geressy is the founder of a group called Carolina Ghostbusters and, according to their website, has seen the movie "Ghostbusters" at least 1000 times. If you think your house may be haunted who you gonna call?
Watch to See Which of Ellen DeGeneres's Employees Screams Like A Girl in a Haunted House [VIDEO]
There may be nothing funnier than watching someone get scared in a haunted house. Ellen DeGeneres sent two of her employees to walk through Universal Studio's Halloween Horror Night. Her writer Amy scares pretty easily, but she's nothing compared to Ellen's Executive Producer, Andy, who screams like a little girl and my husband. I had tears rolling down my face seeing their reactions. It's easier to see why it's Ellen's favorite thing she's ever done.

Did you have trouble in school or struggle with one course? For me, it was science. For this British boy, it was math and English; courses he had a F in. A C was required to pass, but neither his dad or teachers thought he could obtain it. The only thing better than proving everyone wrong, was dad's reaction when he found out his son passed.

A must go!
Had a wonderful & tasty vegetarian Indian lunch! All the items were delicious and yummy. Service was quick, good and staff polite. Ambiance was fine. My whole family enjoyed the food. Quite satisfied.
The restaurant is unappealing. And it has a horrid smell that is polluting the whole neighborhood around it.
Thank you for your concern regarding the smell coming outside from our restaurant.
We have a proper filter canapy system to avoid unnecessary smoke going everywhere and also exhaust is on the top.
Regarding waste food we have designated bins provided with property lid and we really take care of the waste materials not to be thrown everywhere as it...
If any potential customers could see the backside of this restaurant , I doubt that any would enter let alone eat there.
It's a shambles of rubbish and rat infested sheds and bins. On many occasion this establishment has been asked to clean up and finally the EHO has been and seem for himself the chaos that is the backside...
We had one of the set mid week lunches and we were disappointed with the quantity of the food served for the price charged. There was a lot of rice and a small bowl of curry with one naan for £7. When we finished the waiter was sort of trying to get out from serving the dessert (which is part...
An unpretentious, straight-forward good curry-house. The interior is fairly basic, but comfortable. It can get a bit noisy when crowded (which it often is). They seem to put big parties upstairs, which is quite useful. If it seems crowded downstairs, check upstairs. Service is friendly, but sometimes the staff seem stretched at peak times.
The food is excellent, good flavours...
Went here for dinner a few Saturday nights ago when staying in Reading at The Forbury Hotel. This restaurant is just round the corner & serves excellent curry! It doesnt look much from the outside & the menus are kinda tacky & plasticy but the food is fab. They will make the dish as spicy as you request too. I...
Food was delicious! Went out with a small group of friends and will definitely return as soon as possible. Tailored food to suit spice tolerance and fairly reasonably priced. You could tell all food was made on site and felt cosy. Chairs were also really comfy :)
Ordered Vegetable biryani but got chicken piece in it. Shown to Restaurant manager. Being vegetarian did not expect this. I have been to many restaurants in UK no where it has happened. Management need to give strict instructions to chefs. If you are vegetarian be careful.
This restaurant is offering indian type cuisines like rotis, nan and variety of subjis, rice. Rest assured that one will not miss the indian cuisine if they happen to visit this place. They do have a combo offers for lunch which covers rice, nan and a subji, starter as per the customer's choice (of course, from the list provided by...
If you are looking for a restaurant with flock wallpaper and a waiting staff with bow ties.Or somewhere you can pose with your food.
This is NOT for you.
The place with the menu and food is unpretentious as the restaurant. You get good food at a good price.
However slightly better training with staff might be needed to improve...

By my count thats 6 seasons in the NHL and 124 games he played before he got a starting role and became a star. Garons in his 4th season and has played 37. To even suggest that Garon is in the same league as a goaltender as Theo is ludicrous.
Look at Brodeur, he only won 2 of 12 after Christmas and wasnt playing great, so did Jersey abandon him? Of course not, they stuck with him and he won 5 of his next 6 starts. We have to do the same with Theo.
Theo has not been awful lately, he just hasnt been his usual self. Theos play the last while has still been better than half the goalies in the league. There is only one way were going to make the playoffs, with Theo in the nets. Garon may become a great goalie, but his game isnt even close to the level of Theos right now.
I agree a goalie must put in the time to become a good goalie...But Garon is good enough to play 30 games per year. Why isn't he given that chance as was Theodore in 1999-00 where he played in 30...Garon has appeard in 13 games this year only starting in 10. He should be playing more then that. Please don't compare Brodeur and Theodore, while Theodore is very good he's no Brodeur! Not yet!

Must be a slow news week for the UG to post this from a guy we hardly know.The fight business is not for everyone, especially when the majority of the fighters are making between $3k to $15k per fight, but they only fight 2 maybe 3 times a year?Literally you can work full time at McDonalds making as much without taking lumps to the head.

In case youre not in the loop, shabulet shamalaev just won the Belletore tourney, Anthony leone just beat a former world champ, and the training room is full of unheard of 125,135 and 145 pound killers. The fact that you know that he is a former Bombsquad fighter makes me think you should know aforementioned facts.

I am a nice guy looking for my better half. I enjoy most sports and like to be active. I like to travel but have not done as much as I would like. So I hope to do more with someone special. I love going to the beach,dancing and dining out, but I can also just spend the evening staying home watching a movie with my lady. I am a very upbeat, positive person and I love to laugh..........but I know when to be serious. I'm looking for a partner to compliment my life, someone I can learn from and can bring the best out of me. An ideal partner for me would be someone that is my best friend, has a positive outlook, shares my core values, is emotionally stable, has character, ambitious, active, intelligent, loves to laugh and is respectful of others. Also I really do like to go dancing........and I am seriously thinking about taking lessons. Couples that dance well together just look great out on the floor. So if you want to Cha cha and Salsa let me know. I hate the bar scene but I dont mind going to a club if I bring my own dance partner. I am not currently a member.............but I will probably join again.

Product description
Reissued with a new jacket to mark the publication of the sixth and final collection of Miller's plays, this volume contains four of the most important and famous plays of the American theatre. All five plays were written by Arthur Miller within a ten-year period which began with his first Broadway hit in 1947: 'With the production of All My Sons, wrote Brooks Atkinson in the New York Times, 'the theatre has acquired a genuine new talent.' This hit was followed by an even greater play: Death of a Salesman. 'A great play of our day', wrote the New York Herald Tribune and the play has gone on to become the classic American tragedy of Willy Loman, a salesman who becomes disillusioned with the American dream. The Crucible (1953) was produced during the McCarthy era and became a parable of the witch-hunting practises of a government rooting out Communists. A View from the Bridge (1955) concerns the lives of longshoremen in the Brooklyn waterfront and has remained one of Miller's most produced plays. A Memory of Two Mondays, a one-act play, was written as a companion piece to A View from the Bridge. 'The greatest American dramatist of our age'. Evening Standard

Help me plan please [Lower Westchester County]
I can confirm that Gemelos consolidated both restaurants into the newer space around the corner. We've been a few times and it's as great as ever. I hope others realize this change and it doesn't hurt their overall business.
PS also agree on the KB and Acuario recs. All three are great spots
Apr 08, 2015mla19 in New York State (exc. NYC)
Not Westchester, I know, but depending where you are in the county, Mecha Noodle Bar in Fairfield, CT is really great and worth a visit (don't skip their dumplings either)
Apr 08, 2015mla19 in New York State (exc. NYC)
Zeppoleme closed but looks like they're turning it into an Italian market and wine bar?!
Agreed on Nessa. Loved it at first but seemed less great all around with each passing visit. Haven't been back in a few years and would be very curious to hear an updated review.
Apr 08, 2015mla19 in New York State (exc. NYC)
Moving offices to Midtown East ... I need new lunch options!
I'm right near you but my company provides free lunch via Seamless so I mostly stick to ordering that way. On that note, my favorite, healthier option is Akdeniz, a Turkish spot on 46th btw 5th and 6th. A bit far for walking but if you happen to need a Seamless rec, don't hesitate to order from there.
Also, a Luke's Lobster opened recently right outside your door.
Hello! Visiting Cancun next month with two other couples, and each of our three year old daughters. My husband and I love food but we'll be limited here between the young kids and the fact that the two other families are not going to be inclined to go digging for good eats. Accordingly, if you had to eat in the Hotel Zone (we're staying at the Ritz), what are your best bets? We plan to get a sitter one night so an adults only suggestion is also requested. Thanks!
Just an update that the GM at Ko could not have been nicer and more accommodating to me. She called me Wed with an open spot and went out of her way to make sure we'd have a great time. And we did! A flawless and delicious meal! My two meals at Ko have been so memorable. Hope to have many more.
Mar 14, 2015mla19 in Manhattan
El Rey is so great. Loved reading this review. Thanks for sharing.
MRS - agreed on Le Penguin. It's the best spot in Greenwich. Delicious. Finally trying their sister place, Le Fat Poodle in a few weeks. Nice to finally have a restaurant or two to be excited about in Greenwich.
Mar 07, 2015mla19 in Southern New England
Premium prices at Ben's Deli in Scarsdale
We just go to Liebman's in Riverdale. Better food and fairly convenient for much of Westchester.
Mar 07, 2015mla19 in New York State (exc. NYC)
Thanks, Loraliff! Someone at Ko did respond to my email and they've put me on the wait list for that night should someone cancel. It's a nice gesture and I'm just generally glad that they responded and are trying to make the customer happy. We shall see...
In my opinion, that's a crummy thing to do. I was following their long standing policy and ready to sign on tomorrow at 10am on the dot for my 3/13 reservation. Instead, the restaurant changed their policy with no notice or "grace period" and thus a person who may have decided on a whim to log on to Ko's site 5 days ago, got my reservation.
Any idea when Ko announced the change from their long standing policy of taking reservations 10 days out to taking them 15 days out? I planned months ago to try for a birthday reservation tomorrow for 3/13 and I checked the Ko site several times in recent months to ensure I followed their ressie policy. Somehow, when I logged onto their website this morning, I saw that the reservation policy changed effective 2/23 and sure enough, 3/13 is already sold out. I can't imagine Ko gave much notice for the new policy, since I'm pretty sure the site still showed the 10 day policy in January and possibly parts of February.
Assuming I'm right, it's pretty terrible that they would change their red policy so suddenly without any sort of notice period. I sent an email to the restaurant, but have thus far gotten no response and not expecting to. Really frustrating and off-putting.
YELP's algorithm fail in Westchester
Agreed. Beyond Yelp, food blogs around here taut and praise food that wouldn't get a second glance in NYC. It drives me nuts, especially as NYC places operating at a much higher level, get critiqued all the time on their own local blogs (Serious Eats, Eater NY etc). In the burbs, the crappiest food passes for excellence.
Feb 26, 2015mla19 in New York State (exc. NYC)
I've only been to each once so I am not a great judge. But I can tell you that my one meal at Ko in 2011 was outstanding and I still think about it often. Hope to finally revisit, now in their new space, for my birthday in March. I ate at Blanca in 2012 and have no interest in going back.
Piora revisited- Fantastic dinner!!
So glad to read this. I went once with a friend when Piora was fairly new and loved everything about my meal, including the gorgeous room. I'm going back soon with my husband this time and am happy to hear it's still great. Agreed it doesn't seem to get the appreciation it deserves.
In lower FFC, each of the Bill Taibe restaurants in Wesport are excellent and worthy of a stop (Le Farm, The Whelk and Kawa Ni). Also good:
Mecha Noodle Bar in Fairfield
Jan 29, 2015mla19 in Southern New England
Hmm I bet you were mischarged, which is a shame. Fortina's pricing is generally pretty reasonable, especially given it's tastier than most Westchester joints at a similar price point.
Jan 21, 2015mla19 in New York State (exc. NYC)
I'm Angry and I'm not Taking it Anymore! Westchester NY
Ok so not a cocktail and not entirely relevant but i must share a story about los gemelos in port chester. I just love that spot - its food and prices. The other day i order their lone red wine with my meal. It was listed on the menu at $10, which i thought was a bit steep for Gemelos but generally in line with the going rate for house wine by the glass. Five minutes later, the waitess plops an entire bottle of red wine on my table. Yup, that price was for a full BOTTLE.
There are some great and reasonable spots in Westchester for food and drink. They're just much fewer and farther between than NYC.
Jan 21, 2015mla19 in New York State (exc. NYC)
We tried Rye Brook last Saturday (a week ago) at 5pm with our young kids and another family. Service, food and amibiance were absolutely perfect - even better than our last visit in Armonk. By 630 the place was packed. They're going to kill it in both towns and I'm sure Stamford, too. While we were there, I saw Rob and John (2/3s of the owners). I suspect, at least for now, they'll travel back and forth through the night.
As for the food, our old favorites were as good as ever (tenderoni, burrata, pork braisole, bread pudding), but we tried their brussels bravas for the first time and they were pretty much the best side dish I've ever had. We ordered a second batch. We dine in NYC often and we think Fortina honestly stands up against its city counterparts. It's really that good.
Re the noise, I'm in my 30s and I'm a city mouse, so that stuff doesnt bother me (I actually prefer the energy of a crowd), but I think that atmosphere is par for the course with Fortina, and you either "get" their shtick or you dont.
Jan 17, 2015mla19 in New York State (exc. NYC)
Went last night and looks like things haven't changed much. Food was outstanding but service, particularly from the hostess, was comically bad. Luckily, we enjoyed what we ate so much, that it made the slow/amateur service tolerable. The husk meringue dessert was to die for.
Campagna - the old Bedford Post, Bedford, NY
Did you get your res on Open Table or by calling? I predict this being a hardish ressie especially during holiday season!
Can't wait to hear what you think. Having Michael White pastas in the burbs is a dream come true!
And I can't believe how quietly they opened. I follow Chef White on Twitter and Instagram. No mention.

Locali (New Canaan) - Outstanding Dishes
Interesting. I tried it once and was not impressed with the food or service. It was only a few months ago but the food didn't leave much of an impression as I can't remember a single thing we ordered.
Side note - for wonderful pizza not too far from New Canaan, check out Fortina in Armonk.

Trip Report: Grace, Schwa, Au Cheval and Little Goat
Thanks to everyone for the help in planning a great time in Chicago this past weekend. We had lots of fun (gorgeous weather!) and some delicious meals. Quick summaries below.
Au Cheval (lunch): My husband and I knew we were going to love Au Cheval from the moment we walked in. The atmosphere was top notch - relaxed but still buzzy, even at lunch. The cheeseburger with egg and thick cut bacon lived up to the hype, though it's certainly not something I could eat often. We also ordered the bone marrow with a divine beef cheek marmalade and the duck heart hash. All excellent and not for the faint of heart. We were still full many hours later.
Grace (dinner): A wonderful dinner. My husband and I each ordered the Fauna menu. Each dish was presented beautifully and ranged somewhere in taste from very good to outstanding. My favorite dish by a long shot was the Miyazaki Beef with Vietnamese flavors. That whole plate came together perfectly and it was one of the most delicious things I've ever eaten. I also really enjoyed the mini bread tastings that came with each of the savory courses. I've never seen that done before. Service was polished across the board, and the sommelier was especially excellent. The night ended with a tour of the kitchen and getting to briefly meet Chef Duffy.
Little Goat (brunch): A modern and improved take on the average diner. This is a place we would come to often if we lived in the city, particularly since it's child-friendly and we have young kids at home. As an out-of-towner, I'm happy I tried it once, but wouldn't look to go back on another visit. The hash browns (who knew it'd be a weekend of hash browns?!) were fantastic.
Schwa (dinner): Certainly the strangest restaurant I've ever been to. Chef Carlson was unfortunately not present at our meal so I wonder what effect that had on our experience. I appreciated the uniqueness of it all - food and beyond. But ultimately, the dishes were all way too sweet for my palate. I was craving something salty and savory the whole meal. The menu just didn't work for me.
We also had some awesome Tiki drinks at Three Dots and a Dash on Friday night. And we tried some doughnuts at Doughnut Vault and Firecakes.
A great weekend!

The Little Pub ROCKS Ridgefield, CT
I know this is an old post but I just had to weigh in to tell you that I agree entirely with your burger assessment. Little Pub just opened in Greenwich and it's making a killing. Constantly packed. I've been several times now and the food just isn't special. The burger, which you'd think would be decent at a pub, is totally flavorless and bland, like you said. Oh well - another letdown in Greenwich.
Oct 13, 2014mla19 in Southern New England
Working in Greenwich - Nearby lunch options for take-out/delivery
Try Steam on the Ave. It's a bit pricey but much, much better quality than any of the other Asian fusion spots in town. I've tried a bunch of items off their menu and pretty much everything was great. I used to frequent Penang but Steam is better.
Another great option for lunch, albeit not near Greenwich Ave, is Villa Nuova on the Cos Cob/Riverside border. Delicious sandwiches and hot food options.
These two are pretty much the only restaurants I actually like in Greenwich.
Oct 13, 2014mla19 in Southern New England
Hi 51rich, I'm sure you already know this but if you live in New Rochelle, you're much closer to the original ZON in the Bronx. As I mentioned in the other thread, I've been to the Arthur Avenue location a bunch and it's good (and popular), but nothing amazing and not as good as its sister spot, Roberto's. Definitely less special than Fortina. In the Bronx it does get crowded but if you go early enough, you get right in. I'm sure the same will be true of Armonk.

Help us decide on an Italian restaurant for early December girls trip...
Morini and Maialino are two of my favorites. You can't go wrong. Morini is a bit more casual, hip and loud; Maialino more refined and comparatively subdued. With young girls, I'd say Morini would be more fun. The atmosphere is rustic but none of what you mentioned take away from the experience.And Morini's pastas are out of this world. Enjoy wherever you end up!

Interesting that you had such a different experience. I was previously unaware that you could so easily substitute courses from each menu at Grace (not a common occurrence in fine dining). And should that be the case, I would gladly pick and choose from each menu.
I do appreciate the responses and agree that whether the restaurant allows us to freely substitute or not, we will not make any decisions about what menu to pick until we get there and see what most appeals to each of us.
Thanks, everyone!

Hi All - My husband and I are traveling to Chicago the last weekend in October and are very excited for our meal at Grace. For anyone who has been before, would we be remiss to each order the Fauna menu? We do want to get the full experience of Chef Duffy's food, but we both also really like our meat and seafood. A mostly vegetarian menu doesn't really get us too excited. I suspect if we ask our waiter that night, he or she will tell us to order one of each menu. But I'm curious to hear other diners' perspectives. Thanks!
