The Pizza Bar on 38th

The Japanese didn’t just invent the sushi omakase experience. They – or more precisely – Chef Daniele Cason at the Mandarin Oriental’s Pizza on 38th, came up with the pizza omakase too. We’re wondering why no one did this sooner. And yes, it is worth it to fly to Tokyo to eat at the pizza restaurant at the Mandarin Oriental. Atmosphere When you think of a traditional Japanese omakase experience, it’s often an austere setting where you can hear a…

Top Hotel Restaurants in the U.S.

This is not your Holiday Inn, where “restaurant” is loosely defined, and sometimes includes a vending machine. Hotel restaurants have come a long way from the convenience of a consolation prize meal. In fact, some of these restaurants are the reason to not only stay at these abodes, but to in fact make the journey to the destination itself. The Hotel Restaurant: Rivea Location: Delano Las Vegas, Las Vegas Blvd, NV Love it or not like it so much, Las…

Red Light Therapy

Red light therapy (or low-level red light therapy) uses low-level wavelengths of near-infrared light on targeted parts of the body to reduce inflammation. During the treatment, photons in the light get absorbed by photosensitive molecules in skin cells, which leads to tissue repair. While many of the hot skincare and recovery treatments at top spas may have little other than placebo effect, red light therapy has validating studies to back the claims. Randomized controlled trials in athletes have shown significant…

Nobody Wants This Film Locations

Family Ties. Who’s the Boss? Full House. They just don’t make shows like they used to, that is, until now. Erin Foster’s Nobody Wants This launched on Netflix and with it brought smart, modern writing back to TV. We would even go so far as to say, brilliant, relatable, and laugh-out-loud funny. Kristen Bell and Adam Brody are magic on screen, but we’ll get to that in a separate review. In this article, we’re talking about the third cast member,…

Fashion Designers With Restaurants

Fashion Designer: LVMH Restaurant: Chez L’Ami Louis Location: Paris If you already think Chez L’Ami Louis has a starlit reputation, we’re willing to bet LVMH’s recent ownership won’t make snagging a reservation any easier. The twelve tables, plus its A-list crowd, make it a spot hard to come by. The type of fame doesn’t matter; the Parisian bistro attracts politicians like Bill Clinton and artists like Rosalia and Johnny Depp. What makes it so enticing? First, it’s a classic, founded…
