Tom Cruise at the Olympics Closing Ceremony

With all those years as part of the Mission Impossible franchise, Tom Cruise picked up a skill or two, besides acting. A natural daredevil, Tom Cruise doesn’t need a stunt double to run for him, which fighting the bad guys often requires. And he surely doesn’t need someone to skydive for him either. We saw Tom Cruise at the Olympics cheering on the athletes, including at the Women’s Gymnastics qualifiers. But on Sunday’s Closing Ceremony, we saw Tom Cruise at…

Leonardo DiCaprio in Italy

Looks like Leonardo DiCaprio will make the Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez’s wedding guest list. After all friends that boat together are likely to attend each other’s weddings, or something like that. Though we’re betting that Jeff Bezos and Lauren Sanchez’s wedding is going to be before Leonardo DiCaprio’s wedding to Vittoria Ceretti. But besides that almost sure bet, Leonardo DiCaprio and Vittoria Ceretti officially got an upgrade in boats. Now you can check out the photos of Leonardo DiCaprio…

Marea NYC

Marea NYC is not remotely a new restaurant, or a hidden find. Since it opened 15 years ago, it’s been a staple in the Midtown area for work lunches and dinners. At one point, Marea had a Michelin star, which was earned in 2012 and lost in 2022 under Chef Michael White. Normally, when a restaurant hits this milestone era of its existence, it can be ready to put out to pasture. However in the fall of 2023, Marea decided…

Taylor Swift in Vienna

We, like the 150,000+ ticket holders over the three scheduled evenings, were looking forward to seeing Taylor Swift in Vienna. Vienna is one of the most royal – or rather, in its case – imperial cities in the world. Taylor is a queen so she would have fit right in. But alas due to the exact opposite sentiments of her concerts, we will not see Taylor Swift in Vienna this August 8-10. So, What Happened to the Taylor Swift Concert…

Greece is one of the OG’s for your European summer wishlist, and that’s for a good reason. Between clear Mediterranean waters and ingredients that make your skin glow through your diet, the Greeks know what’s up.

That’s where Kéa Island comes in, specifically One&Only Kéa Island for our chic crowd trying to regain serenity. The new Greek luxury resort…

Smith & Mills Rockefeller Center

If anyone had told us even 5 years ago that Rockefeller Center would be a hot New-York-dining spot, we would never have believed it. But, when Frenchette ventured uptown to open Le Rock, and 5 Acres came in from Brooklyn, the Rock Center earned its street cred. And now, with the Smith & Mills Rockefeller Center, we stand totally corrected. This is the review. Atmosphere Virtually every bar in the Rockefeller Center vicinity should be ashamed of themselves.

Kamasu at Hudson Yards

Japanese restaurant group Kissaki is the recent darling of the sushi scene, where the draw actually isn’t the scene. Kissaki gained its popularity the good old way – by serving high quality sushi. That’s not to say though the scene hasn’t followed, especially at the Water Mill location in the Hamptons. So it’s only natural with all its success and following that Kissaki would branch into the trendy temaki concept. This is a review of Kamasu NYC, a casual temaki…

Best Hotel Restaurants in the World

Once upon a time, hotel restaurants were more for convenience. You know, when you are so darned tired that a stiff drink and a meal at the bar are all you can muster. However, times are a-changing, and at a few of these spots, the restaurants exceed the stars of the hotel. In fact, we would go as far as to say that these restaurants are the whole reason you would travel to destination. These are the best hotel restaurants…
