't been in ages because I am not a breakfast eater, and it never occurs to me to eat there for dinner. This experience is going to change that. Dusty’s house mimosa is strawberry/OJ and champers. Um...delicious....

Chicago steakhouse, serving very good aged beef. There’s also a Morton’s nearby. Cafe La Cave is very good (french, continental food) and is still within a 5-minute cab ride from the Westin. You’re also very...

of these have been around forever, and look quite beautiful in the caves. Oh, and cost? There’s, uh, no financial savings whatsoever to using oak, like your question implies. Just the opposite. Oak barrels for aging wine are...

Formaggio, though. They have their own cheese cave in Cambridge.

My fav blue these days is Roaring Forties. I believe it is ages in a cave by the sea and as a result it had little crunchy salt crystals. It is a very yummy blue that has lots of flavour and scent but is not at all overwhelming.

I love the Penn Quarter Farmers Market! It’s worth taking the Marc train/Metro in from Anne Arundel County every week. Chapel’s Country Creamery (Cows' milk products) of Easton, Maryland has a heckuva Caved-Aged...

time. After all, it is an aged product. If cheddar can age for years in an aging cave or cellar, there’s no reason why it shouldn’t keep in your fridge indefinitely — provided that it hasn’t been exposed...

I have to go with Topo. Burke’s is great and dry aged steaks can be hard to find but wow, I had one of the set chef’s menus with wine a few months ago at Topo and it was unreal, Bayless is usually around so that is...

eat it Cave-aged Gruyere – i find this addictive

I might go across the river to Cambridge/Somerville for a bit of a funkier vibe. All these places have shareable plates and drinks; none are trying to be NYC: Dali – mostly very good tapas, great sangria, nifty cave-like...

Comte, Manchego and cave-aged Gruyere

is one of those crazy theme Taiwanese nighttime restaurants, this one decorated like a cave. More notably, the waitresses there dress up in very interesting costumes. Some, like the policewoman, the letter carrier, and the...

Susan asked about London; I’m doing Paris on my layover from the North Africa trip. Hubby and three college-aged students (my kids plus a girlfriend) will be with us, and after all that airfare money is indeed a semi-issue....

'm overdue – it’s around the 150th to 200th bottle of wine that I’ve tried. I understand that it’s a dark damp cave/wet cardboard/wet dirty dog smell, which the cork definitely smells like. I feel like a...

It’s worth it to go at least once. It’s not a place just for a meal, and it would depend on age and maturity of the kids. Short answer, it’s an experience more along the lines of Midevil Times than any place...
