but the waiter at Town was one of those Matthew Perry looking guys in a Prada suit who continually huffed and looked annoyed with us. The food at Boulud was perfect, if a bit conservative: country pate with pistachios and ramps...

. Democratic? Particulaly during lunch; a minling of wall street movers and shakers in Brooks Brothers and Prada along side guy who work, constructon guys, guys in Timerland and Levis. Also, women that make my knees shake....

No one’s mentioned Radhika’s Cuisine of India. It’s a tad more “upscale” than All India Cafe, but food is just as great and the service is wonderful and kind. I love their tikka masala and shrimp...

Newport yuppies are going to have to put their Prada loafers on and venture a few blocks inland for the good stuff! Take a tip from an old timer and get to know the neighborhood. My favorite part of eating out is seeing people...

Yes, but they’re $250 True Religion jeans with a $90 Trunk tshirt. We wear expensive jeans and tshirts to expensive restaurants. Oh, and $400 Prada sneakers.

where I can hang out with a few friends, relax with a drink or two and get some good bar food. Preferably somewhere I won’t feel out of place if I accidentally leave my prada handbag at home.

there twice and it was where we first tasted Tuscan pici, a thick, chewy spaghetti-shaped pasta. We also had a quick cappuccino there one morning on our way to the Prada outlet in Montevarci, but that’s a story for another post....

I want to surprise my sister for a lunch outing this coming week in North Dallas. I’d like to take her to a NICE tea room. (Not a hole in the wall place.) Any suggestions?

of supercute, superfun gals in our 30s. We’re not looking to party it up like we’re at a Sig-Eps keggar, but we’re also not looking for a stuffy, Manhattan-wannabe club where you have to flash your Prada to even...

Here is a silly MagnoliaPop story for you: My wife and my little sister are having a girls' day out in Manhattan. They make their first ever trip to Magnolia and then sneak their cupcakes into a showing of The Devil Wears Prada....

Cafeteria is absolutely the best. The restuarant under the Prada Store (Commune? Commissary?) used to be good, but i’ve heard that place is a disaster now.

check out this place Kuk Il located in the northeast, good and cheap. Just make sure you show up in some dirty rags, leave the pradas at home, the smoke stays with you for a looong time. Link:...

that Bruno Magli for women which are $300 and up here are available at their outlet in Milan (with a GREAT selection) in the middle of January for under $60. Gucci, Prada, Zegna and many others all have serious “real”...

Ate there last night. Very Good! Pretty inside – trendy, hip, etc. Was worried at first – place was packed and the crowd at bar looked like they walked out of the latest Prada ad. Thought maybe they were going to make...

. No Prada in sight. My Saturday afternoon volunteer shift at Bouley Bakery this weekend was the best experience I’ve ever had at a four-star restaurant. As you may know, Bouley Bakery is serving as a kitchen for the WTC...
