29th and 3rd ave, south-west Indian, setting is a village in the restaurant.....
was overfed and over indulged by the new manager at gemma last night, the new restaurant at the bowery hotel. would have been a pleasant meal were it not for my bloated obnoxious boothmate. oh wait, that was me. very nice space. thought the food was good but not spectacular. and the service was helpful although slightly clueless. timeout was supremely unimpressed. im probably a little bit easier to please. the remnants of the nutella calzone will go well with the coffee ive left steeping in the french press for 20 minutes.

The Flexitarian Table @ 171 East Broadway
Ron Castellano and Joel Barkley’s new restaurant inspired from chef Peter Berley’s “The Flexitarian Table” cookbook. The dishes from the book appeal to a sophisticated palate that may or may not want a meat free dinner (think mix and match meat). Slated to open October 2007

I guess this is a couple months old, but I just saw a story on CNN and that's the first I heard of it: Grant Achatz diagnosed with cancer of the tongue. Traditional surgical methods would most likely result in the loss of his palette, so he's trying some other things first. Achatz founded the Chicago molecular gastronomic restaurant Alinea, often named as the top restaurant in the U.S.
longest tasting menu ever served at wd50 was last nite, and I was one of the lucky guests.......lost count so rumor is a printed copy will be produced........it was stunning, probably the best meal there ever, but maybe not as some others have been increadable, anyway who cares......it was a preview of great treats to come for the fall.....wd50 rules!!!
Don't want to kill an animal in Reno, just to eat it up? Pneumatic Diner, 501 W. First at Ralston St., near the Truckee River walk. For those who crave animal protein, they serve eggs all day. I recommend the huevos rancheros. The tofu parmigian was good too.
When hankering for Mexican foord in Salt Lake City -- Not Just Mormons Anymore! -- check out the Red Iguana. Not to be confused with the Blue Iguana.
