<em>Weekend or (The Unexpected Virtue of Indulgence)</em>
Your Perks: 1) 64% off a fitted button-down from Jared Lang. Prepare for compliments. 2) A palm-size drone. Need we say more? 3) A leather bag for winter. Use it to travel somewhere warmer.
Nob Hill Spa is turning 15 today and they’re celebrating by offering you 10-packs of their all-time favorite services (yes, massages are involved). And they’re charging what they would’ve charged in 2000. We predict a spa day in your very near future. Or 10.
You’ve got two options: 1) Champagne on your couch. 2) Veuve Clicquot by the fire, overlooking a snowy mountainside in Squaw Valley. Oh, and the second one comes with Vietnamese chicken wings and cheesesteak poutine. And a photo booth. And a DJ. But, you know, do what you want.
If you plan on heading to Les Clos this weekend to pick up a bottle, plan on staying for a bit. Because every Saturday going forward, they’re transforming their café/shop/bistro into a full-on tasting room. This week, they’re pouring a half dozen Italian wines. Sounds like an unterrible afternoon.
Maybe you heard a rumor that Huxley was getting into the brunch game. Maybe you also heard that it would involve urchin-topped avocado toast, braised pork and fried eggs, and beermosas. We don’t generally like spreading rumors, but maybe just plan on heading there this weekend.
Well, foie in a burger is a thing you can have again. But also, a four-course feast with oysters poached in foie gras fat, foie gras torchon with guava jelly and foie gras butter with white truffles. That’s a more important thing you can have again.
