    Originally from the area, but whenever I drive up from NYC and want to take family out for dinner, there are like one or two decent restaurants in the whole area. And when you quiz locals about good places to eat, they get that whole "upstate/downstate" argument, as in "Why don't you go back to where you came from." So I do.

    Hmm... someone else is on Felix Salmon's frequency today too.

    First he tweets of Albany, then he tweets of psycho restaurateur:

    I have never been able to get around the name of this place: "a radiant light around the head" has never made me feel the least bit peckish. Also makes me think of lady nips; ditto.

    are all the laid off folks invited too? If not I think they should all show up and press their faces against those "big windows looking out on 42nd street"

    They have to keep up appearances, impress their sources, and, you know, all the other reasons why it's more important to throw a big, expensive party than save that $100k and keep the positions of two editorial assistants.

    The Fairchild, Golf Digest, bridal, and digital groups can party in splendor at the McDonald's at 42nd and Broadway. There will be balloons! #condenast

    It's not that exclusive, I got a reservation (No, it wasn't for the next day or the next week.) and I'm nobody.

    It was nice enough, but the food was so rich I was up all night. Next year, I pick my birthday dinner restaurant.

    Absolutely hilarious, Foster. And dead on.

    On a similar note, whenever I have to cancel a reservation at one of NY's trendy restaurants, I always make sure I call and apologize profusely for their inconvenience. Because perish the thought I might be blacklisted by the restaurant mafioso, and never be able to get a reservation again for a birthday, anniversary or other special occasion.

    The "apology'' was priceless. I must ask, did Jesse require ketchup with his fries, or was he required to provide a sample of blood?
