I would like to believe
this is self parody, only I don't think it is. Gawker.com says--"if Tom Cruise jumping on Oprah's couch was an 8 on the scale of scary, this is a 10." (I think the couch thing was a 6, I give this a 12.)
This is old news, but new to me, and I'm sorry but If you think I can resist posting this, you've got another think coming.

East 15. Homemade tofu was excellent (better than Megu I thought) and the cod special with miso and mushrooms was amazing. Nice quiet room. Started by the owners of Tocqueville, which is right next door. Next time though I want to sit at the sushi bar.

the other night coward fineman could not stop gushing about tim russerts skill and fearsomeness as an interviewer and that hillary was brave to submit to an hour in his presence. judge for yourself right now but dont look directly into his eyes or you may not live to comment again.

Metzgete at Trestle on Tenth
Dear friends of Trestle on Tenth
Please come and join us for our first-ever metzgete any night from Tuesday, January 15 through Sunday, January 20. It will be a special offering in addition to our full dinner menu.
So, what is a metzgete? Loosely translated as “a butcher’s affair,” it is a very traditional Swiss celebration of the pig, customarily offered at country restaurants throughout Switzerland during the cold months. The metzgete follows right on the heels of the slaughter, which happens in late fall and deep winter, and originated as a way to use every scrap of the pig--especially those parts that would or could not be dried, smoked or pickled for later consumption. Resembling the choucroute garnie of neighboring Alsace, the dish starts with sauerkraut and mashed potatoes and is then heaped with all kinds of pork.
Next week at Trestle, our version will include everything from braised belly to homemade bratwurst to liver and blood sausages, for only $24 per person (it can be served family-style for a group). We would suggest pairing the metzgete with a glass of Switzerland’s most notable white wine, Chasselas, or a bottle of artisanal Swiss beer, both of which will be available as options.
We look forward to sharing with you a true Swiss experience in a modern American setting.
