If you'll be in New York on October 22nd we encourage you to celebrate two of our favorite things: Restaurant Florent, a Meatpacking District institution, will be throwing a 20th birthday party benefitting The High Line. There will also be a gallery show with a variety of art and artifacts illustrating the Meatpacking District's transformation from "a place only meatpackers, tranny whores, and famished club kids once dared to tread to the commercially vibrant, pseudo-Sex in the City sideshow it's become." Tickets and information here.

Cochon Butcher
On a recent trip to New Orleans, I had the mouth-watering pleasure of grabbing an early lunch at Cochon Butcher, the meat shop and wine bar opened in January by Cochon chef Donald Link and partner-chefs Stephen Stryjewski and Warren Stephens. Located in the still-burgeoning Warehouse District—home to hotels, galleries and museums—Cochon Butcher makes for an ideal snack stop while exploring the neighborhood's hotspots. Though...
Black Garlic
Asian cuisines have long incorporated Black Garlic, but only more recently has this fermented version of the bulb been commercially available in the U.S. and Britain. Eaten as a snack or used as an ingredient in cooking, it boasts a vinegary sweet flavor and health benefits.
