January 21, 2015 // Chefs Club
Chefs have become a whole new breed of rock star. They get stopped on the street for pictures. People want their autographs. The screaming fans that once belonged exclusively to leather-clad bad boys now follow along after the ladies and gentlemen in the toque blanche. Half the fun of living in New York is touring…

Pigs are pretty amazing creatures. Humans have thought so for quite a long time. We domesticated them somewhere between 5,000 and 7,000 years ago, and since then, they’ve been everything from mushroom hunters to delicious breakfast food. (Let us take this moment to thank the inventor of bacon. You are an inspiration to us all.)…

That old saying, “Money doesn’t grow on trees,” has a pretty narrow scope. We all know it’s meant to convey the worth of money, and not spending it like water, but think about it. There’s plenty of things we wish grew on trees, so we could walk right up and pick them. Martinis, for example.…

When Ivan Pavlov rang a bell, his dogs started salivating. It was all part of an experiment about behavioral conditioning. Ring a bell every time you give a dog dinner, and they’ll drool like a waterfall when they hear the sound. You can perform the same experiment today with humans. Say the word “steak”, and…

It’s still nasty cold outside. Winter still has us in its icy clutches, and seems pretty determined to freeze our extremities off. Plenty of us wouldn’t mind escaping to other climes for a bit. Different zip codes, different countries, different…planets? Why not? Don’t be content with hanging out on the boring Earth you know. Take…
January 12, 2015 // Sarabeth’s Central Park South
There’s something especially nice about restaurants that serve every meal. You don’t need to wonder when they open. When your stomach starts gnawing on your spine after a day of shopping, or playing in Central Park, you don’t have to wrack your brain for a place with open doors and hot food. You can find…
January 9, 2015 // Corkbuzz Wine Bar
You don’t have to be a sophisticated wine snob from an obscure region of France to pine for the vine, now and then. Studies say wine may have health benefits, when you drink it in moderation. A glass of wine is also a fantastic way to improve a rotten day, or cap off a really…
January 7, 2015 // Circus Now: International Contemporary Circus Exposure 2015, Uncategorized
Going to the circus conjures up memories for a lot of us. Elephants wearing feathered headdresses, or some person with a death wish stepping into a cage full of angry big cats. (Or the years of therapy bills brought on by the clowns. Let’s just not talk about those.) While plenty of those circuses are…
January 6, 2015 // Winter Jazzfest 2015
So you’re sick to death of the sound of silver bells, and you’ve about reached your last noel, but you’re not quite ready for a silent night. No problem! The end of the holiday carols has arrived, and you can cleanse your musical palette with some of the best jazz music around. From January 8…

Philosophers and physicists don’t always travel down the same paths of thought. There’s one theory that has some of both thinking, though, and it involves the idea of different, parallel realities. Every time you make a decision, they say, another reality comes into being. In those different realities, you live out the different consequences of…
