New Orleans’s culinary reputation vastly outweighs its size, and its restaurants can compete with any from much bigger cities. To begin with, it’s the only place in the United States with an indigenous cuisine?– the Cajun and Creole traditions still very evident in many menus and giving us classics such as gumbo and jambalaya. In addition to this, the sheer enthusiasm and commitment to hospitality and enjoyment of food is palpable everywhere from the finest of the city’s dining rooms to the sandwich shop on the corner. There’s a real joy of eating here, and a refreshing lack of pretention. ?
The Marais is widely known as the French bistro chair (authentic ones are still manufactured by hand in the same town in Burgundy where the company was founded), but if the Tolix original is too rich for your blood, we found some good look-alikes, too.
The Coca-Cola report, written in consultation with a handful of influential grocery executives, including Rich Niemann, acknowledges that the challenges are dire. To remain relevant, it concludes, supermarkets will need to become more like tech platforms: develop a “robust set of e-commerce capabilities,” take “a mobile-first approach,” and leverage “enhanced digital assets.” They’ll need infrastructure for “click and collect” purchasing, allowing customers to order online and pick up in a jiffy. They’ll want to establish a social media presence, as well as a “chatbot strategy.” In short, they’ll need to become Amazon, and they’ll need to do it all while competing with Walmart — and its e-commerce platform, Jet.com — on convenience and price.
Another draw here? South Carolina-style hash. This stewy hodgepodge isn’t the prettiest thing to look at, but folks who grew up on this regional side dish love a good ladleful, especially over rice.
The legs can fold all the way in for low-profile use but they lack padding and won’t be comfortable to rest on your lap. Instead, you’re better off folding out the extendable legs, which can be adjusted from 9 to 12 inches. With all of these ergonomic features allowing a lot of customization, it is hard to imagine this lap desks not working for some. It is a great pick all around.
At this Theatre District “restobar,” pop some bubbly from a champagne vending machine. If that’s not theatrical enough, try the The Box Office, a bourbon cocktail topped with popcorn and served in a red-and-white-striped popcorn box.
“Educate yourself (or ask your florist/planner) about floral blooming times,” advises Stephanie Cole, Co-founder at Cole Drake Events. “Spring is arguably the best time for florals, and many favorites are found this time of year: peonies, lily of the valley, ranunculus, to name a few,” Cole adds emphasizing the use of local, seasonal blooms on your tablescape. Don’t forget to carry those florals over to your bouquet and boutonniere.
Harvest Market is the anti-Amazon. It’s designed to excel at what e-commerce can’t?do: convene people over the mouth-watering appeal of prize ingredients and freshly prepared food. The proportion of groceries sold online?is expected to swell over the next five or six years, but Harvest is a bet that behavioral psychology, spatial design, and narrative panache can get people excited about supermarkets again. Kelley isn’t asking grocers to be more like Jeff Bezos or Sam Walton. He’s not asking them to be ruthless, race-to-the-bottom merchants. In fact, he thinks that grocery stores can be something far greater than we ever imagined — a place where farmers and their urban customers can meet, a crucial link between the city and the country.
The 210,000-square-foot casino is divided into two spacious sections, with high ceilings and hand-assembled red Murano glass chandeliers transplanted from their original home at Encore at Wynn Las Vegas.
