The Restaurant Candle 79 and a Movie Star Alert!
Do you know of anyone who has to avoid gluten in their diet? A friend of mine who recently visited must eat gluten-free, and it forced us to be picky about what restaurants we chose.
We found Candle 79 using an internet search, and what find! As we were finishing our late lunch, around 3 p.m., I looked up and saw Pierce Brosnan exiting the restaurant! I sputtered to my friend to turn around NOW! Fortunately, for us, he lingered a few minutes talking to his driver, and we were able to stare at him through our window and get these photos.
Indeed, their website boasts, "It is a regular restaurant choice of neighborhood regulars, celebrities, politicians, and corporate tycoons."

Beautiful Fiber Art at Anthropology
If you don't have time to visit an art museum in New York, I recommend you check out the Anthropology store at Rockefeller Center. Their display artists are incredibly talented. This piece of fiber art measures a good 15 feet wide and stretches from floor to ceiling. It won't stay there long; however, they change displays with the seasons.
