Her love of music and performing developed when she was a toddler where she explored all forms of music. She finally set on piano as her first formal instruction and later moved onto vocal training with School of Rock- Arlington Heights. Recently, she has developed her recording and music production skills. Lauren’s musical interests range from Aretha to Zeppelin, yet has an affinity for all genres of music. As a senior at Prospect High School, you can find Lauren with a pair of headphones on mixing music in her music production class. When she isn’t at school or performing with David’s House you can find her working on her own songs as a songwriter producing her own music.

Ducking or dodging? No political debate set for Phelan, Covey ahead of runoff

He has deflated to the point where he could no longer thwart Ukraine aid in Congress. Still, the pro-Ukraine, anti-Trump vote in the House is a very, very big rock. On something that mattered intensely to him—that had become a badge of pro-Trump identity—Trump’s own party worked with Democrats in the House and Senate to hand him a stinging defeat. Senators might have loathed him, governors might have despised him, donors might have ridiculed him, college-educated Republican voters might have turned against him—but LOL, nothing mattered. Everybody else either fell in line, retired from politics, or quit the party.

Republicans threw away the immigration issue by blowing up—at Trump’s order—the best immigration deal they’ve ever seen. The attempt to confect Biden scandals to equal Trump’s scandals turned into an embarrassing fiasco that relied on information from a suspected Russian spy indicted for lying to the FBI. And Trump himself now faces trial in New York State on one set of felony charges. He faces a federal trial, probably starting this fall, on the even graver criminal indictments arising from his attempt to overturn the 2020 election.

Who Stays at David’s House

To request newsletters or for more information on how you can spread the word, contact Don (-house.org). Since we do not utilize a reservation system, you are welcome to stay as long as your family has a hospital-related need for local lodging and you are abiding by the house rules. Half of the families who stay at David’s House, Olmstead said, are coming for scheduled appointments and treatment, for children with chronic medical conditions. The other half end up here because of a crisis, she said, such as a car crash or premature birth. Each time David left the hospital after treatment, he begged his dad to let him bring the other children home with them, Olmstead said.

"Dade Phelan has dodged debates since the beginning of the race for Texas House District 21," Covey said on Thursday in announcing his newest campaign ad. "Why? Dade Phelan can’t defend his liberal record to the people of Southeast Texas." It remains unclear whether the two candidates will participate in a public debate ahead of the election.

Where to Stay at Children's Hospital at DHMC

On May 9, 1994, the current David’s House welcomed its first guests. A two-minute walk from the hospital entrance, David’s House was designed specifically to not look like an institutional building and instead to feel like a cozy house with tons of windows for natural light, welcoming colors, and comfortable furnishings. David’s House is the dream of a little boy named David Cyr who passed away in 1984 after a three-year struggle with acute lymphocytic leukemia.

Because David’s House has a limited number of rooms, we have to consider all requests before assigning available rooms for a specific day. Due to the uncertainties that arise during healthcare treatment, we need to be sure that a current guest is leaving before we reassign the room. Your place on the room request list is not affected by when your request was made. We will do everything possible to accommodate your needs or work with you to find alternative arrangements in the event that the house is full. David’s House is a home-away-from-home for families who have children who are receiving care at Dartmouth Health Children’s in Lebanon, NH.

Special lodging facilities

For directions to lodging facilities from DHMC, call the Rest Easy Lodging information desk. Davids has also worked a "Sharice's Shift" with the KC Levee Project and at the K-10 Lexington Avenue exit, which will be the main roadway for Kansans traveling to the planned Panasonic Energy manufacturing facility. The members of our small staff are thankful to work in an environment filled with love and gratitude for all the wonderful, supportive volunteers who help make doing their job possible.

David’s House is the dream of a little boy named David Cyr who passed away at age five after a three-and-a-half-year struggle against acute lymphatic leukemia. Built so that families can remain together when it is most crucial, David’s House provides a home-away-from-home and support for families with children receiving treatment through Dartmouth Health Children’s. The health ministry and Palestinian news agency Wafa, meanwhile, have said at least one child and one teen are among those killed, and that the IDF has arrested young people en masse and destroyed key infrastructure. Today, Representative Sharice Davids celebrated Kansas’ newly approved proposal to utilize nearly $452 million to deploy affordable, equitable, and reliable high-speed Internet service throughout the state. The federal investment, delivered through the Broadband, Equity, Access and Deployment (BEAD) program, will help ensure all Kansans have the capacity to thrive in our digital economy.

Regardless of the outcomes in the upcoming runoff election and potential speakership battle, Phelan has already made a reluctant piece of House history in being forced into a runoff. Nick Maddux, a general consultant for Covey, in a statement Thursday reiterated the campaign's frustration with Phelan over the debate and took issue with the arrangements for the April 1 offer from the news stations and over its potential moderator. Criticizing and down playing Patrick's and Paxton's interest in the race, Phelan over the past month has gone on the offensive against Covey, painting his challenger as being solely responsible for keeping voters from hearing the candidates debate.

It says eight IDF soldiers and one Border Force officer have been lightly or moderately injured in fighting. An ambulance driver was killed by Israeli settlers as he tried to transport Palestinians who had been attacked by settlers in the West Bank, according to the Palestinian Ministry of Health and an aid organization. The aid will directly correlate to the increasing number of Palestinian casualties, said the spokesperson, Nabil Abu Rudeineh, according to a statement published by the Palestinian official news agency WAFA.

There are enough novelty cocktails and craft beers to keep you exploring for a while. Trolley Square Oyster House being in Trolley Square, drinks are part of the experience. Set amid the crowds and the urban commotion of Grand Central Market, The Oyster Gourmet is an unusual-looking, vaguely steampunk-y small wooden stand designed to look like a giant open oyster shell. And as you might expect, they’ve really only got three things on the menu besides wine, and the one most worth your time is the plate of oysters. The selection constantly changes, and the shuckers are super knowledgeable–so even if you don’t know the difference between a Blue Point and a Wellfleet, they’re always happy to help you figure out what you’ll like. An awesome Manhattan Beach seafood spot the size of a studio apartment, Fishing With Dynamite is the best place to go in the South Bay for oysters and a beer.

Restaurants to Try This Weekend in Los Angeles: April 26

But if you’d rather sit inside, there's a long wooden bar where you can bring a date. If you can, stop by on a Monday night to take advantage of Liv’s half-off oyster deal. Delaware Bay oysters are some of the best you’ll ever have, and they’re famous around the country for their flavors. There are so many places throughout the state where you can track down delicious, fresh oysters that it’s hard to narrow it down to the best oyster bars in Delaware… but we had to give it a shot.

Dudley Market

Your guide to the people, places and activities of Delaware from its beaches and coastal towns to its bustling cities and historic sites. The catch of the day—cod—was offered grilled, broiled or blackened, with lemon butter or a choice of sauces. The portion was generous, seared until just cooked (still moist), and the seasoning proved amply spicy without being overwhelming. The sautéed spinach and roasted fingerling potatoes were reliable accompaniments.

Curbed LA main menu

There was a time when oysters Rockefeller were looked down on as the kind of old-fashioned, country club fare that nouvelle, New American and other food trends tried so assiduously to dispatch. Rockefeller was an affront, an insult to a delicacy whose flavor and texture were too naturally subtle to be obscured, and to the diner, who should, according to some chefs, experience so perfect a food in its natural state. To them, roasting an oyster as a Rockefeller was tantamount to mixing a 90-point Chardonnay into a spritzer. Trolley Oyster elevates a standard of Maine diners to a dish worthy of the best restaurants, tossing large chunks of chilled meat with a mayonnaise seasoned with a mild brown butter.

The Chesapeake then supplied half of all oysters consumed around the world. Behind the stoves is chef Carlos Lopez, who previously cooked at Rekondo and Kokotxa in San Sebastian, Spain, and Avra in Beverly Hills. Highlights from the menu include a plethora of raw seafood options like a scallop carpaccio and Peruvian ceviche, along with hearty mains like a lobster roll trio featuring Connecticut-style, Louisiana-style, and curried lobster on brioche buns. The restaurant seats eight at the bar, 50 in the main dining room, and 20 in the garden patio. Construction on an additional 500 square feet of alfresco dining space should be completed by month’s end, bringing in 30 more seats. As part of the group of popular Big Fish restaurants, Trolley Square Oyster House specializes in seafood, with 10 or so types of oysters from across the country taking center stage.

Many come from their enigmatic general manager’s family farm in Maine, and are sweet, salty bites that taste so clean, you’d think the kitchen installed a pipeline to the ocean. Sometimes we want cold, plump, alarmingly fresh, briny-sweet oysters and nothing else. And for those occasions, we have a few ground rules. We're looking for restaurants and bars with a legitimate selection of oysters (ideally, the server should tell you where they’re from), a cold beverage, and a setting where you can order a dozen or more for yourself and no one will bat an eye. In short, you'll want to spend all day at these 14 LA spots. Recent trends express themselves through items such as mahi tacos.

A lot of places that call themselves “oyster bars” are anything but. They have an actual oyster bar upstairs, and they’re shucking a wide variety of excellent oysters from both coasts. It’s one of the more pricey spots on here, but you’re guaranteed the highest quality of oysters from Wellfleet, Hood Island, and more.

Here are the top 10 places to feast on fresh oysters in the First State. Another great seafood concept from the Big Fish Restaurant Group in the heart of Trolley Square in downtown Wilmington. Casual seafood focused eatery and local hot spot offering the freshest seafood available.

You won’t find anything exotic, but you’ll find enough diversity to have fun (not to mention plenty of Gulf shrimp and Chesapeake middleneck clams). Broad Street Oyster Company is a fantastic seafood shack in Malibu that’s filled with so many oysters, mussels, shrimp, and uni you’ll wonder if their “local source” is actually the Aquarium of the Pacific. Here, the sunny Malibu coast glistens, the salty sea air kisses your skin in a way that feels like it’s hitting on you, and Broad Street will hook you up with a world-class selection of fresh oysters served over crushed ice. This oyster bar in Long Beach has a little something for everyone. From platters of sweet and briny mollusks on ice and a fried oyster caesar salad to a mountain of fries covered in creamy seafood chowder, Liv’s in Belmont Shore isn’t afraid to let shellfish be the star. The sidewalk patio has so many string lights, you’ll feel like you’re eating under an old theater marquee.

They’ve got a great selection, from a few different Cape Cod varieties to ones from Baja and Morro Bay. The raw scallops with grapefruit are also highly worth your time, if you’re in need of even more things served on the half shell. From the outside, Connie & Ted’s looks like a futuristic restaurant set amid Boystown. But on the inside, it’s a classic New England seafood shack. Sommelier Adam Ohler’s list embraces California- and European-produced wines and offers over a dozen red, white, orange, rosé, and sparkling picks by the glass.

Owner Don Andes, who also operates Little Joy Cocktails in the neighborhood and Out There Bar in Twentynine Palms with business partner Joaquin Reyna-Donaldson, previously operated the Holloway in the same location as the Lonely Oyster for seven years. We started by sharing a dozen Sweet Jesus oysters on the half, a variety farmed on the Western Shore of the Chesapeake. Their clean flavor and buttery texture only whetted our appetite for more.

When a fresh oyster is shucked masterfully, a small pool of clear liquid will remain with the oyster in the bottom half of the shell. It is actually filtered sea water from which the oyster lived in, and holds a robust, unique to-that-oyster flavor. Our favorite places to eat fresh fish, oysters, uni, and more. We decided to graze widely on our second visit, made on a Thursday about 7 p.m.

Brunch service is set to start this Saturday, September 17, with smoked salmon eggs Benedict, lobster hash, and banana brioche French toast on the menu. The film will screen again in the Dances With Films festival at the Chinese Theatre, which runs May 30 through June 9. I am powerless over shellfish in tomato, so I chose the Dockside Stew.

The place was packed with a diverse crowd of partiers at the shaded bar in the courtyard and others watching sports on TV downstairs. Diners conversed at the row of tables nearby or relaxed at tables on the upstairs deck. Crowded and convivial, Trolley Square Oyster House is a perfect addition to the scene in upstate’s premier dining-nightlife neighborhood. Though the popularity of classic oyster houses faded in the middle half of the 20th—along with oyster harvests in some areas—some restaurateurs began to resurrect the idea a few years ago, as more cultured or farmed oysters became available. Many owners revived a Victorian feeling in their oyster houses, but dining among the dark paneling and reproduced period furniture often felt more kitschy than transporting. On a recent visit, ours arrived as a plate of six large, plump oysters topped with a heap of buttery spinach sprinkled with panko crumbs.

Most notable was the tartar sauce, which is lighter, creamier and more subtly flavored than the sweet pickle relish-mayonnaise glop most places serve. Through decor and menu, Trolley Oyster has brought the concept thoroughly up to date. The owners kept the exposed brick walls and the contemporary elements of its recent predecessor in that space (a long-ago converted townhouse), while adding some new touches. In the deep, narrow dining-lounge area downstairs, a marble bar tops a base of white subway tile.

LA’s New Restaurant Openings

At the Trolley Square Oyster House we promise to deliver an unforgettable experience for you and your guests. We offer a unique variety of menus for group dining. The oyster house concept dates to the mid-19th century, when the appetite for the shellfish was so great, violent conflicts broke out between Chesapeake Bay watermen and intruding poacher-pirates from New England.

The blanket of Parmigiana-rich greens kept the oysters moist. A dash of Pernod gave a sweet, mildly spicy note to the topping. And the panko, ever crispy, provided a welcome contrast of textures. My compliments to chef Silvy Bravo and his team—and a plea to let them remain on the menu in perpetuity. All of the food was diverse but full of great flavor .

They’ve also got great cocktails (our preference with oysters is a French 75) and offer a dozen or a half-dozen oysters at a discount during Happy Hour. Dudley Market catches most of the seafood they serve at their Venice restaurant on the team's very own fishing boat. That’s a little bit tougher with oysters, but you'll still predominantly see West Coast varieties on the menu. These come with a really pepper-lime mignonette and go great with their long list of natural wines.

OYSTERS 101

Classic raw bar with a variety of fresh daily east and west coast oysters along with creative and inspired seafood fare. Fun atmosphere sure to create a memorable dining experience, along with live entertainment. As one would expect, this Los Feliz seafood shop is one the best places in LA to find oysters. They’ve moved operations from their tight, disco ball-lit space and expanded into the patio on the street, where you’ll have room to enjoy their excellent Little Namskaket oysters and bask in the glow of the neighboring Scientology building.

Pleasantly surprised an oyster place can survive in Wilmington. There are many ways to enjoy a good oyster, but there are some “rules” of tasting that should not be broken. This knowledge is important to know and understand in order for you to be able to share it with your guests if they have never tried an oyster before, or simply if they ask.

Spotlight on Wilmington

The wait for a table was about 30 minutes, so we sat at a cocktail rail near a television at the back of the main room to kill the time, then decided to stay put. Convivial can mean loud—which I don’t object to—but my imperfect ears missed the full-volume tone of the texted page. On the upside, we were greeted immediately by a server, who then delivered our drinks in a flash. The shrimp and oysters were superbThe drinks are deliciousThe service and atmosphere were outstanding. Echo Park’s newest seafood sensation the Lonely Oyster debuted last Thursday, September 8, with a crowd-pleasing menu of seafood towers, salmon crudo, baked clams, and more.

The  hint of tartness of the saffron-scented broth was more than compensated for by the abundance of clams, calamari and mussels—and by the large slices of buttery, garlicky chargrilled sourdough. The toast is good enough to be sold as a side, and I used it enthusiastically to clean the broth from the bowl. With the emergence of comfort food more than a decade ago, oysters Rockefeller began to reappear, as it does at Trolley Square Oyster House in Wilmington.

Since oysters filter water, they ingest all naturally occurring plankton, bits of plant life, salt and minerals from the water they grow in. The biological makeup of seawater can vary greatly bay to bay, ocean to ocean, and especially north to south. This drastically alters all aspects of the oyster that lives in the various bodies of water.

This place is bright and airy, and remains shockingly tourist-free for how close it is to the beach (if you’re sitting in the right seat, you can see the water). They’ve also got some of the friendliest staff around. If you don’t enjoy fish, it’s only fair to warn you that non-seafood options are limited to a cheese sampler, a burger and a fried chicken club sandwich, so you’ll have to be good sports for the others in your party.

The blandness of a cracker can cleanse the palate just as well as water. It absorbs the leftover particles in your mouth and cleans it thoroughly! This is important to ensure you’re always tasting the oyster you are slurping, not all of them together. Do NOT pour out the oyster’s liquor.It is a precious part in tasting an oyster and is considered to be essential to the oyster-tasting process.

The cocktails are intended to pair well with the fare; an early hit is the $17 house-special martini made with gin or vodka, vermouth, olives, and a lemon twist. A raw oyster on a half shell with a heap of caviar can be served alongside for an additional $13. Not many people know this, but the oysters at Mariscos Jalisco are incredible.

Strips of dark and light woods alternate on the floor. Shiny stainless steel chairs and stools contrast with wood tabletops. Sitting at the bar is a treat with great bartenders and plenty of TVs to watch whatever games are on. Besides delicious oysters the steamer pots and the oyster po’ boy are my favorites. Folded into it are doomed love stories, fancy parties, a subplot about epigenetics, Chinese people who look white and yummy treats (before becoming a novelist, Khong was executive editor of the beloved food magazine Lucky Peach).

Of course, no visit is complete without their signature tacos or ceviches, but next time you’re here, add an oyster or two to whatever you order. They sell them for a dollar or two a pop, but our favorite way to enjoy them is just ordering the campechana—a rich, tomato-based cocktail packed with an ocean’s-worth of shrimp, abalone, baby octopus, and one raw oyster floating on top. Thank you for your interest in Trolley Square Oyster House for your next special event! Whether celebrating an important occasion with family or hosting a corporate luncheon, we have the perfect setting all year round.

If you would like to purchase a physical gift card, please visit any Big Fish Restaurant Group location. The meeting went so well, and the email Freeman sent afterward was so compelling (he offered to be her longtime editor, snowplow, hurricane lamp, map holder and in-house fire starter, among other things) that Khong signed a deal with Knopf five days later. It should smell sea-breezy and sweet, not fishy at all. You’re trying to absorb and appreciate the nuances in the flavor and textures of something that requires patience and mastery.

Investigators found further evidence which linked him to the heists and on March 21 this year, a SWAT team gathered at a Reseda Boulevard apartment building to serve a search and arrest warrant on the suspect. For those not in the know, the Harvey House is the old restaurant on the southern side of Union Station. It has been closed since 1967 but is used for TV and film shoots as well as special events. Metro would like to bring it back as a restaurant and needs to find someone willing to run the place; the kitchen needs a lot of work. Los Angeles Union Station also has an Amtrak Metropolitan Lounge available to Sleeping Car passengers; Business Class passengers may purchase a one-day pass to access the lounge.

However, growing Amtrak and transit usage has led LAUS to be revitalized, allowing the station to once again serve as a major transportation hub for people from all over America. This newfound viability was due in part to the efforts of the Catellus Development Corporation. Hunger could be satisfied with a visit to the famous Harvey House restaurant, whose interior was designed by architect Mary Colter.

It also housed the Indian Building, where Native American pottery and jewelry were displayed. In the early part of the twentieth century, the Fred Harvey Company began to popularize and develop markets for Indian craftsmanship. Many such artifacts were actually created in the Indian Building. On February 13, 1970, the wrecking ball smashed into what was one of Albuquerque’s most famous historical landmarks. However, in 2002, a “new” Alvarado opened to the public.

Although placed on the Historic Sites Register of Springfield in 1975 to preserve it, the building was demolished on March 5, 1977. The decade after the new station opened, it saw the heyday of the railroad era as thousands of people arrived in Los Angeles via the railroad. During World War II, the Harvey House Restaurant boasted it could feed 800 people an hour. However, as competition from cars and airlines increased, the railroad era was coming to an end. In 1967 the grand Harvey House restaurant closed, and four years later, in 1971, Amtrak took over passenger operations.

Though the voters approved the new station in 1926, it would be more than ten years before it was finally built. The new station also boasted a new and improved Havey House restaurant and adjoining bar. Unfortunately, the depot’s great success did not protect it from the decline of the railroad industry in the latter half of the century, and it fell into disrepair. For years the old depot sat abandoned until finally, in the mid-1990s, the City of San Bernardino began to work to bring the depot back to life.

As railroad travel declined in the 1950s, the depot saw fewer travelers. The popular Harvey House Restaurant was closed down in 1955, the last to close on the Frisco line. On December 9, 1967, the last passenger train left the station. There was talk in Springfield of turning the station into a shopping mall, but this never happened. The building immediately began to decline, as it was not secured by the public.

Gérard Depardieu to Stand Trial Over Sexual Assault Allegations

It wasn’t long before some people began arguing that #MeToo had gone too far — and maybe in a few cases it had. But it was striking how allegations arose in academia, in the restaurant and fashion industries, in the arts. With the power of reporting — of necessity, deeply researched reporting — to end careers, it seemed possible that times were changing. But still, for the most part, victims could only get a meaningful response from the press rather than their employers or their guilds. When the Hollywood producer Harvey Weinstein was convicted of sex crimes four years ago, it was celebrated as a watershed moment for the #MeToo movement.

Harvey Weinstein Conviction Thrown Out

The floor tiles together create a pattern resembling a Navajo rug. At some point, lucky diners will be able to enjoy the space again. It is destined to become a gastropub operated by Cedd Moses, of Cole’s and Seven Grand fame, though an opening date has not been set. That restaurant—a Harvey House that, during World War II, became a popular waystation for soldiers shipping out of the railway station to their posts—shuttered more than five decades ago. We all know he’s guilty — even the New York appeals court majority that ordered a new trial for Harvey Weinstein knows it. That makes the narrow, 4-3 reversal of Weinstein’s conviction all the more enraging.

Originally known as the “Los Angeles Union Passenger Terminal”, the station was intended to consolidate the services of the Southern Pacific, Union Pacific and Atchison, Topeka, and Santa Fe railroads in one modern facility. With Los Angeles in the midst of a population boom that began in the 1920s, the new station became a necessity. In March of 1979, Oppenheimer Properties purchased the station for $5.5 million.

Towers at the building's corners, and those of the central projecting bay facing the tracks, are capped with pointed roofs or painted domes. In April 2011, the Los Angeles County Metropolitan Transportation Authority (LACMTA) bought LAUS for $75 million. The purchase, which included 38 acres and 5.9 million square feet of development rights, allows LACMTA to build on the property to meet the station’s current and future transportation needs.

Nearly 100 women have come forward with stories about his predation. And in other celebrity restaurant news, SFGATE reports that spiky-haired celebrity chef Guy Fieri will also lend his name to a host of upcoming Northern California restaurants. The outlet reports that Chandi Hospitality Group will open 10 Fieri-backed Chicken Guy restaurants from the Bay Area to Sacramento, starting with a first location in American Canyon at 200 American Canyon Road. The restaurants serve chicken tenders and, at some locations, chicken sandwiches and a range of dipping sauces. The Casa del Desierto station and hotel was built in 1911 by the Atchison, Topeka and Santa Fe Railway to replace an earlier one built in 1885 that burned in 1908. In early 2021, LACMTA wrapped up an eight-year, $4.1 million restoration effort at Union Station.

The rooftop bar first debuted last August but moved indoors during the winter season. Now, it’s back in action serving small plates such as white sablefish crudo and Point Reyes Toma grilled cheese, plus cocktails including the White Linen, which features Fid Street Hawaiian Gin, St. Germain Elderflower, lemon, and simple syrup.

In her affidavit, Delph said she discovered Young had been communicating with another person during the robberies on a number registered to Zeff Rocco, an East Coast Crip who’d done prison time for carjacking.

The Depot serviced as many as thirty-six trains a day in its prime. Though the station never housed a Fred Harvey restaurant, it was home to one of their many newsstands. The station ceased operation in 1967, and standing vacant and neglected for years, looters took everything they could reach, from marble to chandeliers and etched glass. Then in 1982, the Williams Companies began to renovate the deteriorating structure for use as office space. The walls, moldings, and medallions on the ceiling were restored to their original colors.

The Barstow Area Chamber of Commerce & Visitor Center also operates out of the former Harvey House. Other public institutions located here are the Western America Railroad Museum on the east side and the Route 66 "Mother Road" Museum on the north side. The magnificent history of this station is fitting, seeing as it sits adjacent to the site of the original Los Angeles settlement, where the famous Olvera Street is located today. The city was founded in1781 by Felipe de Neve, a Spanish governor. The small pueblo, whose original title was “The Town of Our Lady, the Queen of the Angels of Porciúncula,” consisted of 44 settlers of mixed cultural backgrounds.

Shaina Papach was a cook at Alice Waters’ Chez Panisse Restaurant in Berkeley, California. The two met while working at Gramercy Tavern in New York, and decided to return to their Midwest roots (he’s from the Chicago area, she’s from Madison) when they moved to Madison to open a restaurant. The Washington Avenue restaurant sits behind Madison’s Historic Train Depot. The interior features the building’s original brick walls decorated with vintage light fixtures and pastoral paintings with midwestern touches like strawberry hard candies and spectacular table service. They’ve recently added a fully refurbished private train car dining experience.

The smoked kielbasa in a blanket is served with a dark mustard jus. Today, stepping through the glass doors and into the airy Art Deco space, known as the Fred Harvey Room, feels like traveling back in time.

Sam Parker, Ryan Huber and Brian Bartels opened The Settle Down Tavern in the middle of a pandemic and serve a mean burger. Parker said the bar is doing takeout and delivery, and can seat customers in the tavern and in the attached atrium under its glass ceiling. "It’s the next best thing to being outside without being outside," Parker said. The tavern is also expanding into the space next door that used to be the men's clothing store Context. A Harvey House postcard and strawberry candies accompany the bill. A baked potato with the works is served as a side dish.

In the 1950s, Atchison, Topeka & Santa Fe Railroad realigned the railroad through the area, and the city suffered a major economic setback. This was soon compounded when Route 66 was replaced by I-40, which bypassed Ashfork entirely. Sunny Pho owner Kim Khouch cooks a wide variety of Asian dishes and does them all well. The restaurant isn't offering dine-in for now and is concentrating on carryout and delivery. Jamie Hoang opened Ahan -- “food” in Lao -- inside The Bur Oak this summer after other kitchens didn't work out at the East Side music venue. Hoang said business has been "staying steady and busy with delivery and carryout." Deliveries make up about one-third of Ahan's business, Hoang said.

The reckoning happened when journalists finally found enough brave women to speak on the record. The Walt Disney Company is the parent company of Freeform, Hulu and this ABC station. We aim to make transcripts available the next workday after an episode’s publication. Jodi Kantor, one of the reporters who broke the story of the abuse allegations against Mr. Weinstein in 2017, explains what this ruling means for him and for #MeToo.

Some $15 million later, the restoration work, including historically accurate renovations of the interior and exterior and installation of utilities, the depot held its grand re-opening in June 2004. Today the renovated depot serves Metrolink, a commuter rail service, and Amtrak. Though the famous Harvey House lunch rooms, restaurants, and hotels pre-dated Route 66, there were many decades where the two happily co-existed. However, change was inevitable, and ironically, Route 66 was in part responsible for the death of this famous chain. As the roads got better and automobiles more affordable, passenger service on the many trains across America began a gradual decline.

Now New York has failed women once again, but Weinstein still faces a 16-year sentence for rape in California. Thankfully, the law here is not so outdated and misguided as it now stands in New York. Courts allow prosecutors to introduce evidence that demonstrates a defendant’s propensity to commit sex crimes, even when those allegations aren’t part of the crimes charged.

Dine-in is offered at a limited capacity, usually one or two tables, said Melody Lin, whose parents own the restaurant. Royal Indian Cuisine opened in September 2019 on the Far West Side in the days when lunch buffets could be found in every Indian restaurant in town. At Royal Indian, co-owner Inderjit Kaur is  offering carryout and delivery. Ragin Cajun Seafood, in the works for about a year, was delayed by the pandemic, and opened July 10 in the former Ginza of Tokyo on the Far East Side. The restaurant’s basic seafood boil is one of the best splurges a person can make after months of quarantine. Jordan Zhou, the nephew of owner Ting Cai Zhou, said "everything is going well." The restaurant is doing dine-in, carryout and delivery.

In the early 1960s, much of the building was gutted and transformed into offices for the Santa Fe Railroad. The Fred Harvey Company was the owner of the Harvey House chain of restaurants, hotels and other hospitality industry businesses alongside railroads in the Western United States. It was founded in 1876 by Fred Harvey to cater to the growing number of train passengers.

Morrow Mountain State Park is a relatively quick drive all the way to the top. Besides the awesome views that are within a drive, there are 15 miles of hiking that you can enjoy. And if you’re looking for lunch over the vineyard, make sure to have a meal at the bistro at Childress Vineyards! Of course, you can visit them and all Lexington wineries via one of these NC wine trails.

Neighboring High Point is known as the “Home Furnishings Capital of the World,” and home to the world’s largest chest of drawers. There are also more than 100 furnishing outlets and markets in the city. However, if you need a break from the pulled pork, head to Main Street and visit The Candy Factory, an old-school general store of all things sweet and tasty.

The Great Smoky Mountain National Park

Kick back along the Rocky Broad River and Memorial Highway in style, either at Hickory Nut Brewing, the Chimney Rock location of Burntshirt Vineyards, or more spots in Chimney Rock. Continue to Exclamation Point and beyond or hike down to the Hickory Nut Falls Traill, which leads to a 404-foot waterfall. Wilkesboro and Wilkes County are also known as the Moonshine Capital of the World.

And the flights to all seem of least importance so they never leave on time in either direction. That flight was smooth, and staff we courteous. The boarding through security was not properly controlled. Was it just that time, or always like this - cant say. The flight was bumpy at times, but the pilot made us aware every time. As a result, no snacks/drinks were made available.

If drinking and hiking isn’t your thing, then perhaps drinking and driving is (as long as you are not the driver). Wilkesboro is the “Moonshine Capital of the World.” It is also the home of the very first NASCAR track. The city also boasts some beautiful green areas with ample bike paths and a wonderful restaurant and brewery scene. The Uwharrie National Forest is over 52,000 acres of land spanning Davidson, Randolph, and Montgomery Counties.

At 1,705 feet, it’s also the highest point in Gaston County. To find this out one hour before flying—not good. Nowhere is it documented by the airlines though they require it. Pilot was communicative, flight attendants were excellent. Really nice experience except my tv didn’t work.

Asheboro and Randolph County

The 5,210-acre park is laced with eleven fabulous hiking trails. Take Crowder’s Trail to the top of Crowders Mountain for an epic view of the Charlotte skyline. The highest peak in the area is reached via Pinnacle Trail and summits at 1,705 feet. My favorite things to do in Savannah include visiting the Forsyth Park, which is known for its picturesque fountain and beautiful green space.

If you’re into exploring NC beer and spirits, check out Red Buffalo Brewing and Southern Distilling Company, respectively. Belmont also sits in Gaston County and is where you’ll find the 450-acre Daniel Stowe Botanical Garden. This town has rich roots, which you’ll notice while strolling around the massive Downtown Belmont Historic District.

It’s been around since the 1970s but went defunct for years due to neglect and lack of funding. You can’t drive all 500 miles on this iconic byway but you can stop at interesting points like the Folk Art Center or North Carolina Arboretum.

The flight was quick too and without turbulence. Very disappointed about lack of electrical ports. There was enough time to hand out snacks to comfort + seats as was done for first class. I was offered 2 vouchers for inconvenience, but those vouchers aren’t usable. I will never fly spirit for more than a 3 hour flight or overnight.

It’s North Carolina’s largest man-made lake, with 500 miles of shoreline to explore. First the good, everyone was friendly and efficient. Flight was smooth and plane was very clean and new. Now the bad, seats have almost no padding on your behind. We did not get to Phoenix until almost 3 hours after we were originally supposed to.

The city of Belmont has a Norman Rockwell-esque feel and makes for an ideal last-minute trip. Located about 25 minutes from Charlotte, Belmont’s downtown is only a few blocks long so you’re safe from decision-overload. Savannah is a charming Southern town with lots of deep religious history and some of Georgia’s most beautiful architecture.

Instead, this arrangement allows the royal couple to enjoy their marriage despite King George’s medical struggles, giving the pair the “very best half” of a life together. Or, as Rosheuvel puts it, the physical separation allows King George to deal with his struggles. “I always find it really difficult to explain what love is. It really is a deeper connection with that person, an understanding that when you look at them, it’s there,” Rosheuvel says. The glances between Queen Charlotte and King George — represented in both eras of their marriage — captures that emotion. Throughout the series, we learn more about the health of King George as his sporadic fits can’t be contained any longer as Queen Charlotte finds out.

He recognizes something in this gesture, and so he drops down to meet her, their bodies now obscured from the glare of the heavens. It is in this position that Charlotte shares her ecstatic news, that his line will continue on with an heir, and George reminds her, gently, that this is not the whole truth, is it? And so Agatha turns her attention to matters in which she holds more sway. She wants to retain her title, and for it to be passed down to her children and beyond.

One day, they decided to look past their social obligations and express their passion and love for one another. Agatha had never experienced physical affection before. She could never forget the heightened emotions that she experienced, even though she chose never to indulge in them again.

Lady Agatha Danbury reminisces about her former husband and previous lovers.

In the series finale, Charlotte's son Edward (Jack Michael Stacey) and daughter-in-law Victoria (Florence Dobson) tell the Queen that they are expecting their first child. Charlotte continues to worry about an heir as her children flounder about. Her eldest son and daughter meet with her to express their disapproval of their mother’s behavior.

Charlotte’s realized that George has stayed away because he loves her. Charlotte loves him, even though he doesn’t think he’s deserving of it. If he says that he doesn’t love her, only then will she walk away. Following his rescue from the clutches of Doctor Monro, Charlotte goes to check on George in the observatory. He pushes her away and tells her to go back to Buckingham House.

Charlotte is overjoyed with the news and visits George to tell him about it. Agatha took long walks through her estate following Lord Danbury’s death and one day she meets Lord Ledger as their estates run adjacent. They begin to go for walks together and develop a close bond that eventually leads to them making love. At the end of the episode, Prince Edward and his new wife Princess Victoria announce that they are expecting a child.

‘Queen Charlotte’ Ending, Explained: Inside the Emotional Final Moments

Lady Danbury then tells Violet about being involved with Queen Charlotte's brother, Prince Adolphus. We see how he wanted to court her and marry her but when the pair go on a walk, Agatha spys Lord Ledger and immediately makes excuses to leave. Adolphus later proposes to Agatha but at the ball, she admits that she can't marry anyone and doesn't want to be married again. Charlotte thinks that because she now lives with George at Kew, he is better and will stay the way he is. But Reynolds is apprehensive, as he has born witness to the King's changing moods.

Lady Danbury could sense that the marriage was far from okay. She explained to the Queen in detail about the marital act and the importance of consummating their marriage. The great experiment could fail if she was ineffective in performing her duty as Queen of England. One night, the King returned to the palace to have dinner with his wife, and they eventually consummated their marriage. Charlotte was ready to forgive the King for his absence, but the moment she overheard his conversation with his mother, she decided against it. Since he considered the act a duty to his country, she, too, decided to be unemotional about it.

Princess Augusta shares a moment with Charlotte at the ball. She’s only ever wanted George to be happy, and she knows that he is with Charlotte. As Charlotte and George dance the night away, Brimsley and Reynolds do the same thing away from the crowd. Years later, Brimsley is dancing, but this time he’s alone.

Augusta is both surprised and, briefly, disgusted, though her disgust soon morphs into something like recognition. Not empathy, to be clear, but perhaps acknowledgment. She, too, has had to to align herself with the whims of men in order to survive their games. She slips her young “adversary” a dash of pear brandy and urges Agatha not to give in. “Cover your bruises,” she orders, “and endure.” And so, when Adolphus does eventually propose, Agatha does not immediately answer.

The couple then kiss in a sweet moment reminiscent of their younger days. First of all Queen Charlotte is performing extremely well for Netflix. They just announced that it has gotten almost 150 million viewing hours since it debuted less than a week ago. There's no word from Netflix yet, but a renewal would be unlikely considering the six-episode Queen Charlotte has been touted as a miniseries. But that said, other streamers have renewed limited series before. George responds, “Our line.” When she looks over, she sees young George.

Charlotte knows how to speak to him and climbs under the bed where he immediately recognises her. She tells him the good news of Edward's heir and George holds her hand, thanking her and kissing her. For a moment, George seems cognisant with the pair sharing a joke about "going over the wall" as Charlotte attempted to do in episode 1.

My heart calls your name,” he cries before they share a passionate kiss. The limited series 'Queen Charlotte' featured major developments in the past and present 'Bridgerton' timelines. Here's a full breakdown of how 'Queen Charlotte' ended. They tell her that while she has been a great queen, she has never truly been a mother to them and that is why it is unfair for her to put so much pressure to produce an heir. Agatha is momentarily courted by Charlotte’s brother Adolphus but she soon realizes that she does not wish to be married ever again and wants to learn how to live a life of her own.

In the Buckingham halls, Charlotte attempts to assuage George’s own concerns over his upcoming speech, only to suddenly discover herself in the throes of labor. George breaks palace protocol in order to sit with his wife as she delivers their infant son, Georgie, whom Augusta worries might have inherited her son’s fits. “He is perfection,” she finally allows, after George firmly shuts down her questioning.

She found the vintage Schumacher wallpaper on eBay—in the perfect amount—for cheap. “That room was originally inspired with the Goodnight Moon palette in mind.” Michael (Porten) made the headboard for the bedroom. “He has a CNC machine, so he cut out the shape, and I upholstered it with fleece from Joann’s,” she adds. ” The textile art on the bed is called Veronique by Diane Hoffman. The art hanging over the bed is by Kevin Sabo, and Michael created the pieces in the corner. The sconces are from Article, the cat pillow is from Aelfie, and the rugs are from Anthropologie.

Line Your Window Sill With Plants

This living room, by interior designer Irene Gunter of Gunter & Co, is a fine example of the latter, with faux paneling created with simple, framed wallpaper panels. Note how the sofa sits centrally under a panel, which is the perfect fit for it. This creates a neat, pleasing symmetry in interior design, only heightened by the painting in the central panel. Often overlooked they can be useful for storage or for deep bedside tables, but we love when interior designers have fun with them, such as in this bedroom by interior designer Martin Brudnizki.

We love the Beautiful Wrap Me Up Accent Chair, which is available in two upholstery styles and has a sturdy wood frame. But don't miss Article's other offerings—its nightstands, console tables, outdoor furniture, and accent chairs are also worth browsing. The Elko Geode Rug is a great handwoven indoor-outdoor rug that would fit under a bistro dining table or accent any seating area. We also love that West Elm is a vendor for several small businesses.

Since the space is so small, your wallpaper is unlikely to feel loud or overwhelming. Plus, it’s a surefire way to turn your powder room into a show-stopper. Throw pillows are the easiest way to freshen up in the bedroom or living room. Introducing a new color, print, or shape with a throw pillow can make the whole space feel new again. Designer John Fondas turned a shallow closet into an out-of-the-way bar nook with tons of storage by removing the doors and building cabinets and shelves into the walls. The pineapple decor and aquatic touches are perfect for a Palm Beach party house.

Let The Sun Shine In Your Kitchen

Line your sidewalks and get your neighborhood in on it so you can light up the whole street. Instead of focusing just on the mantel, decorate the hearth this season too. When decorating your porch this Halloween, don't just use pumpkins, Instead, mix in some greenery and mums to give your entryway a traditional, but classic autumnal look. Instead of carving pumpkins, decorate them with gold sequins for a glam look that's perfect for any room in your house. Instead of putting flowers in a vase this season, use a carved pumpkin for a fresh take on traditional Halloween decor. Use cobwebs to create a spooky but tasteful runner for your next dinner party.

Similarly, soft goods such as blankets and pillows may be prone to staining, so you may want to keep your favorite throw pillows away from pets and children. For more affordable home decor items, we recommend retailers like Wayfair and IKEA, both of which have large inventories and relatively low prices. Note that both spots may also require you to assemble furniture pieces yourself, which can be a hassle but save you money in the long run.

Pair Crisp Whites With Wood Accents

The textiles in your space, like rugs and throw blankets, can also add to the atmosphere you’re creating. The process of choosing home decor is called decorating or interior design. In addition to displaying objects on the walls, think about decorating the walls themselves. Try out a bright and bold paint color to create an accent wall, or bring in pattern with wallpaper, stenciling, or other decorative paint techniques. (Think about transforming your ceiling while you’re at it!) These decorative accents can have an even bigger impact in a small space. As you browse, you'll find plenty of advice pertaining to living room paint colors (we're loving green living rooms, but you can't go wrong with timeless white living rooms).

Kitchen tables tend to be pretty formulaic, but yours doesn’t have to be. By building a banquette, you can craft a dining nook that feels veritably restaurant-worthy—without breaking the bank. Drawer pulls, doorknobs, and faucets put the finishing touches on any space. If you’re looking for a less obvious way to dress up a room, consider upgrading your hardware. Mix and match pieces from different eras, or commit to a palette and fill your space with it.

Leaning a large mirror against a wall can also make a room seem taller. Even living rooms with less than generous proportions usually require an 8-by-10-foot or a 9-by-12-foot rug to properly accommodate a seating area. Go too small with the rug size and everything looks out of scale. Professional home stagers know how to play up your house’s strengths, hide its flaws, and make it appealing to just about everyone. We talked to several pros across the country to get their tips for freshening up the rooms in your home without breaking your budget. Designer Lori Deeds of Kemble Interiors created a custom banquette and seating area to take advantage of the garden views of this Palm Beach estate.

But this year, instead of filling your home with kitschy plastic pumpkins, opt for something a little classier. While there is a time and a place for that black-and-orange color palette, there are so many ways to bring in a festive look without feeling garish. Reynaert's tables often include an accumulation of items he collected around the globe as well as at local vintage haunts. "I like the mix it brings. I don't ever want the table setting to feel fussy or overly precious." Aki loves using cake or pedestal stands in lieu of bowls and serving dishes, vintage accessories instead of floral centerpieces, and even fruits and vegetables in place of traditional settings.

From personalized headboards to luxuriously soft throw blankets, World Market has decor for anyone looking to incorporate a bit of texture, color, or natural materials into their home decor. The website also includes a page for “inspiration” that highlights new trends and classic ways to style your home. If you think the in-store experience of shopping at Target goes unmatched, then consider browsing the home decor on Target's website. The retailer’s affordable furniture and huge selection of rugs make them a great option for first-time renters, college students, or new homeowners.

There is so much to love about a nostalgic Halloween film like Hocus Pocus. Embrace your inner witch and pop out the spells and potions with vintage-inspired bottles and candles and hang a banner as an ode to your favorite film. What you’ll see and experience goes way beyond a “yard.” You’ll feel as if you’ve stepped into a true Halloween world, complete with red lights and spooky things to see all around. In the United States, a home fire was reported every 88 seconds in 2022, according to the National Fire Protection Association.

Looking for a chic, modern, minimalist bathroom accessories set? Wayfair should be your go-to shop when you want to shave a bit off your budget. From headboards and lighting to outdoor furniture and rugs—plus almost anything else you can think of—Wayfair has it. Many of the retailer’s pieces have the look of designer furniture available at a fraction of the cost, and the retailer almost always has a big sale going on.

Whether you're looking for a modern, rustic, or farmhouse style project, you'll find it here. A lot of these ideas can be done in many different areas of the home, making it easy to find something that will fit into yours. Whether you have a few tiny frames—like in this bedroom designed by Jae Joo—or medium-size ones on a gallery wall, you can easily swap them out with fresh finds. Tear out pages from a coffee table book or stop by a flea market for new works. Quick and easy home decor ideas don't have to look inexpensive when you're on a budget. If your space is long overdue for a makeover and your schedule is jam-packed, we're here with ideas that'll help you transform your home in a way that works for you.

Art and decor is personal and should reflect your tastes and sensibilities; forget the rules. Wall decor is a finishing touch that can add life and character to every room in the house. Well chosen wall art and decor can complement the existing style of your interiors or add a striking contrast that changes the entire feel of the room.

Doors rarely get the same love that our windows, walls, and floors do, so before purchasing a new piece of home décor, consider whether the items that are built-in to your space need a makeover. Giving your door a new coat of paint or some fresh hardware could be all you need to dress up your space. The soft black paint color in this bedroom makes it feel special and intimate in ways you'd never be able to achieve with a lighter hue (this specific shade is Farrow & Ball Railings). The eclectic furniture lends itself nicely to the darkness too, adding a more lived-in vibe. Beautiful powder room wall decor is the easiest way to make these small spaces feel loved and curated.

If your home doesn't have any leftover real estate to convert into a reading nook, design your formal living room to serve double duty as a cozy lounge area. Here, Heidi Caillier strategically chose furniture in fabric and shapes that are sophisticated and homey, perfect for entertaining or unwinding alone.

The power of opposing color combinations is evident in this striking space from Bethany Adams Interiors. Ranging from small, minimalist setups to spacious and modern, these cozy living rooms are worth recreating. Pegboard is one of those materials so ubiquitous you forget how fabulous it can be. It calls to mind the quaint old general stores of times past but does double time when it comes to function.

Try an Unexpected Color

A quick coat of paint can be a low-maintenance way to freshen up your cabinets and transform your space. If you’re looking for a way to dress up a bare corner, consider DIYing a reading nook. Most reading nooks require a mere few pieces—a lounge chair, a side table, and a lamp—so they’re incredibly easy to throw together. Plus, reading nooks don’t demand much space so you can easily sneak one into an otherwise-empty spot. Wallpaper can make a striking addition to any space, but when used in large doses, it can look a little overwhelming. If you’re not a fan of maximalism, consider using bold wallpaper in a smaller space, like a powder room.

Every collection at The Citizenry is made in collaboration with small business owners all over the world, and 58 percent of the entrepreneurs who collaborate with The Citizenry are female artisans. The Citizenry is also the first home retailer to have 100 percent of its products made with a fair-trade process audited and guaranteed by the World Fair Trade Organization.

Swap your standard wine glasses for black opaque ones and invite a few ghoulish friends over for a dinner party to help celebrate this Halloween. Instead of scattering pumpkins on your porch, decorate with spooky (yet charming) lanterns. Fill them with candles or mini pumpkins to give your home a touch of Halloween charm that is not overboard.

We love that the two art pieces in this room by Fanny Abbes match the black-and-white boho-ish bedding that dominates the space. Creating a stylish and sleek wall-mounting system for your bikes will give you more floor space and create an eye-catching focal point that will transform your blank wall. This is one of the most fun and functional wall decor ideas out there.

Mix and Match Your Dining Room Chairs

Take a good, hard look at your bedroom’s lighting set-up, and consider whether it could be improved. If a room is low on windows, consider bringing in a full-length mirror to act as an extra window. By placing the mirror along a wall that’s near a couple of windows, you can multiply the light in your space while making that wall feel a little less bare.

Display a couple of spooky objects around your house to keep it simple without going overboard. Instead of opting for the traditional field pumpkin to adorn your porch or interior this season, opt for unique heirloom pumpkins in fun colors such as blue, green, or pink instead. Decorating your table or your home with ghosts doesn’t have to feel childish. DIY a simple, minimalist ghost centerpiece that’s as charming as it is festive. Keep it simple and it's the perfect, unexpected look for your Halloween dinner party.

One way to keep your Halloween look chic and classy is to ensure the color palette is simple and subtile. Stick to just black and white decor and play around with banners and candle holders for an easy way to decorate a mantel or table. If you didn’t notice, "I love to overdo it with a color or a theme," Aki says. Check out these wall decor ideas for every room that will inspire you to give your own blank walls a little love.

And as is generally the case with L.A., once you dig in, there’s always more to discover.

We love this crocheted pumpkin decor that's perfect for styling a bookshelf or a cabinet for a wonderfully fall vibe. There's only one time of year where we love seeing spiders and that's Halloween. Embrace this spooky look by hanging up a few oversized spiders around your entryway door for a unique look that's sure to delight the neighbors. Instead of decorating with large pumpkins, sprinkle the mini versions around your house, on the table or on the mantel, for a cute Halloween look that is classy and simple. We can’t get enough of this updated gallery-wall-turned-Halloween-decor with the addition of simple black bats and faux cobwebs. We love this floating witch hat vignette that is perfect for adding a hint of spooky vibes to your home.

Removable wall art is perfect if you're renting and don't want to damage the walls. Why hide your fine china in the cabinet when you can show it off? Use wire plate hangers to display your favorite dishes and serving platters.

Outside of work, the writer and poet can be found documenting her travels on social media and saving memes for future use. Place a large mirror above your mantel as HGTV star Alison Victoria did in her Atlanta loft, or dedicate another empty wall space to one—whether it's in your hallway, entryway, or bedroom. Not only will it look good, but it'll make the room feel bigger and brighter.

Bring this color scheme through the entire house for a spooky-yet-classy look. Whether you're framing a cocktail bar or a buffet table, an arch made of balloons is a great way to delineate a party space. Pick a color scheme that works with the rest of your decor instead of sticking to the traditional black and orange theme for a look you can keep up after your guests go home. More is definitely more, but do stick to colours and textures that work together. If you’re apprehensive about busy desgins, stripes are an easy gateway pattern. They go with everything, work in all styles of house and feel like less of a commitment than a more elaborate design.

Ice Cream $4.00

Waitress wasnt too enthusiastic but wasnt rude either. The restaurant was clean, but i was surprised that there weren't that many people in the restaurant. They have a large menu. I ordered a country omelet and I loved the sausage gravy. Since the 90s, a stretch of Venice Boulevard on the border of Culver City and Palms has served as a destination for Brazilian food Los Angeles. While Los Angeles lacks an official “Little Brazil,” this hub is as close as the city gets to an unofficial hub.

CRÊPE HOUSE & ICE CREAM

The Wife had French toast and I had an omelette. We will definitely return. Yesterday (2018), for lunch, I ordered their sausage and cheese omelet. The omelet tasted pretty good and our waitress was friendly. Amazing, fast and friendly service. Our waitress was Ashley and she was very attentive, kind and went out of her way to make sure my family was happy.

Visitors can sample Brazilian pizza, sandwiches, homestyle cooking, and, of course, barbecue. The food is spectacular and the wait staff, smiling-pleasant-top notch. Very good food and quick service.

The meals were delicious. We will definitely be back for dinner as well as breakfast. Highly recommend Granma's House of Pancakes any time of day.- Stan O. My wife and I pass by it all the time and recently decided to try the place out.

Consistently great food and service. The family that runs the restaurant treat everyone like family! The Frita skillet is my favorite- Kevin S.

I moved here from France in 2018 wanting to pursue my love of cooking and offer Big Bear something unique. I bring you Café Crêpe. They believe in eggs here with five egg omelets and while the menu says one or two egg meals are reslly two or four egg meals.

Chicken Apple Sausage $4.00

It was nice to have different options along with the traditional breakfasts. The crepe houses has come a long ways since grandmas pancake House in Eastpointe. They still have the same delicious food but it much nicer atmosphere and building.

We will definitely be back soon! I ordered a skillet and my wife ordered an egg combo with apple cinnamon pancakes. The pancakes were AWESOME. Great service and food at a great price.- Norman S. The food and service were excellent with fair prices. The coffee was good with frequent refills.

They were a little understaffed, but outside of that I would highly recommend going here for a very good breakfast that is also extremely affordable. After eating great breakfasts here, we decided to try the dinner menu. In a group of six, four ordered from the dinner menu and two had omllettes. The menu had a wide selection of meals. Everyone was pleased with their selections and portions.

Staff is kind, restaurant is clean, they were very fast. Nice place for breakfast. Crepes are great but the filling would be better if they use real jam and fruit and not the sweet jelly type.

The food here is beyond exceptional, with a menu that's a delightful mix of both sweet and savory crepes. The attention to detail in each dish is evident - flavors are well-balanced, and the presentation is Instagram-worthy. Service was quick and staff are friendly. Wow been driving by this location for years did not know they exist!

We have tried so many different menu items. Their food is really good eapecially their breakfast and you get good value on your meals. Their pancakes are top notch not run of the mill.

"I think it provides opportunity and what it does is provides a blank slate for a user or an investor for future growth there," Gray said of the additional land at the Centene site. Built in 2017, Cortland Mooresville represents the opportunity to invest in a highly amenitized, core plus asset with recent leases achieving 10% growth over average in place rents, and a clear $300 rent runway to newly delivered assets in the submarket. We Put Companies In Their SpaceWhether your portfolio extends beyond Virginia and South Carolina, or you simply want to understand how global real-estate trends can impact your strategy, we’re here to help. The site's size and vacant land also open it up to a range of opportunities for future development.

Alex McDermott Executive Managing Director

David Smith, global head of Occupier Insights at Cushman & Wakefield, served as the keynote speaker for the event and offered an economic and commercial real estate outlook for 2024. "Katten is proud to join with Cushman & Wakefield to host a formidable group of thought leaders who offered the community an opportunity to network, share insightful information and celebrate our industry," said Karen Nelson, event host and managing partner of Katten's Charlotte office. "Working together, we will continue to explore how to thrive in this new normal so that we can keep the fundamentals of the commercial real estate market strong in Charlotte and across the country." Furthermore, mid-rise competitors in the submarket offer up to $600 in headroom, ideally positioning Presley Uptown to capture significant rent gains while remaining at a discount to newly delivered high-rise supply ($3.25/SF). Incoming ownership will have the outstanding opportunity close the substantial rent delta to competitors by building upon the property’s existing value-add scope and completing an enhanced, high-end renovation program.

Some market observers have mused that it could include a mix of uses to complement the office campus, and Gray didn't rule out more office development there. He added that Centene has been "laser-focused" on finding the right partner for the community to take over the site. Centene Corp.'s decision to ax its plans for an East Coast headquarters and campus in Charlotte's University City leaves a new office building and large undeveloped site without a user.
