...Studio Glitt's Noriyoshi Muramatsu and the ubiquitous Super Potato. Amid a smart-casual setting of stone, wood and glass, you'll find the expansive main dining room, an upstairs bar and a terrace for "outdoor dining" (read: smoking). But the focus, quite rightly, is on the food, not decor. An unstructured menu - Zuma dispenses with the usual distinctions between starters and mains - will have you marveling and grunting over things like baby chicken marinated in barley miso and roasted on cedar wood, or fresh cold tofu with grated wasabi and other condiments.

...After closing CBGB, Kristal packed up much of the club's furniture, equipment and decor and placed it in a Brooklyn storage unit.

...Chiusa, a working vineyard where the warmonger once spent two nights during his nine-month Elban exile, before escaping to prepare for his last battle. Today, peace lovers can enjoy a relaxing farm holiday in one of the nine peasant cottages among the vines and olive groves. The decor is rustic - simple furniture and no mod cons - but each cottage has a small garden and access to a quiet beach with mesmerizing views of the medieval walled town of Portoferraio. It's also here that John Le Carré set part of his best-selling novel, The Constant Gardener...
