Is there an audio stream of the Alito hearings anywhere? I thought it would be on NPR but it doesn't seem like it is.

cross posting real-estate onto the food page : Lower East Side: "Any idea what's happening on Orchard St [near Broome]? There are about 4 storefronts in a row getting gutted simultaneously. Couldn't possibly be a coincidence, right? One (or more?) of them will be a Mexican joint called El Bocadito - any idea about the others?"

Last night: a remarkable meal at Paul Liebrandt's (formerly of Atlas and Papillon) Gilt (housed in the former Le Cirque 2000 space in the New York Palace Hotel). It sometimes seems silly to talk about food, even more so when it is really good. But suffice it to say he manages to walk the razor's edge with his tasting menu, swerving from the opulent (table side service of a whole giant lobe of foie gras encrusted in a shiny shell of beet), to the sublime (a truly elevated use of spices reminding one how small our lexicon of these powerful adverbs has become.) Go if you can eat without check fear. Desserts and wine fail to live up to Liebrandt's cooking, so if not tasting and wine pairing, save on expenditure in theses departments. We went to Cru first to get our inebriation on (Gilt's list makes Cru seem like a dream bargain).
