Read about new restaurants like Akasha in Culver City which they say "opened in a cavernous 1920s hospital tastefully renovated with salvaged wood and other sustainable materials. There's a café-slash-bakery in front, a wine bar and restaurant in back and sidewalk tables for the balmy outside. Ingredients are local as possible but the cooking is all over the map: heritage pork chop with sambazon acai, turmeric pears with goji berries and goat cheese, food-fired pizza with La Quercia prosciutto".
Want your linen all Organic Cotton, they showcase Ortolan, a New York company that offers just that for bedroom, bath and kitchen.
To round up my tour in Ozolife, my last pick (in the Get Away section) is the Cuba! Art and History from 1968 to today at the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts. The show runs until June 8, 2008.
That's all folks for Green Day #23
