Frankly, the weekend doesn’t give a damn.
This week, we’re hooking you up with exclusive custom-blend burgers from Food Network’s number one meat honcho, delivered right to your door. Also, sleek new Swiss-made timepieces from Skywatch and the handsome leather weekend bags your summer requires. Summer is needy like that...
The French: always talking about their terroir. Well, they’re finally backing up that talk. This evening, stop by Meat Market, where (generous) pours of Krug will be paired with the very best in champagne-supporting small plates. You can probably assume this won’t include pigs in a blanket.
LeBron James. Knows how to dunk a basketball. And apparently, how to launch a website. Because tomorrow at 11am, the online component for his store, Unknwn, goes live. Now you can get your A.P.C. jeans anywhere, at any time. Even inside the Heat locker room. Assuming they have wi-fi in there.
File this under second-date appropriate. Tomorrow at the Light Box, Radhouane El Meddeb, a Tunisian performance artist, will cook you dinner. While he dances. Poetically. So there’ll be leaping and twirling and the rhythmic simmering of lamb couscous. Some spillage should probably be expected.
After a season full of food festivals, you could really go for... another food festival. So head to the Great Taste of the Grove, where local restaurants (like Spartico, Chart House and Jaguar) will be serving up samples of the ceviche and flatbread variety. Good thing you’ve been training.
Random facts: you know a few. Risqué random facts: you know more than a few. So Tuesday night, you’ll enter the sex, drugs and rock and roll trivia contest at Ricochet. There’ll be brain food (PBR and gratis pizza). Also, multiple questions regarding alternate uses for handcuffs.
