Vegetarian in North Phoenix?
I'm travelling for work in the North Phoenix area with some vegetarians (dairy, but no eggs). Any suggestions for good vegetarian options? Thanks in advance!
Recommendations for Chinese?
My husband and I are visiting DC for the weekend, and we always go for Chinese when we travel. Chinese food in Barbados was truly terrible, but our meals in Philly and the Italian Alps were great!
We’re staying in the Georgetown area… any suggestions for Chinese food for dinner?
It can be fancy or a true dive… as long as it’s delicious!
Is the Russian Tea Room re-opening?
I pass by the Russian Tea Room every day, and it seems like they're making preparations to re-open; they've put up a new awning and have been polishing the doors. Does anyone have info?

which champagne glass to buy?
Not all Riedel collectors are purists... I have quite a collection of Riedel wine glasses myself, but appreciate something different for special occasions.
If you're looking to buy them a pair that they can add to over time for entertaining, then go for the Riedel.
If you want something just for them to use for celebration, buy a pair like the Baccarat Dom (I got those myself as an engagement gift) or the Tiffany Classic crystal (one of my favorites... and who doesn't like a blue box?... and for only $90 for the pair!). Both styles are wonderful quality, have a good, light touch and are free of any embellishment (very important); plus, it feels pretty special to take them out of their special box when you use them.
Also, might want to consider spending a bit less on flutes (Riedel Vinum) and purchasing an interesting bottle of champagne to go with them!
