    Countertop advice?

    I just moved into a new space and the property manager is allowing me to choose the new countertops. Going for an industrial and salvaged feel. Decided on a dark leather granite for the primary counter space. Trying to figure out the best choice for the bar top counter. Thinking reclaimed wood...

    The "secret menu" at Chinese restaurants.

    Recently my girlfriend and I went to her friend's family's Chinese restaurant for dinner and I encountered something a bit odd. I knew full well they had a "secret menu" typically not offered to most American patrons and had discussed it with her friend previously. Once we got...

    Gauloises, specifically the line that tastes of peat.

    I met an Englishman in town on business a few months back and he let me have a few of his Gauloises. I've had Gauloises in Canada before, but these were different. They're much shorter and had a very distinct peat flavor, almost akin to a Scotch from Islay. What are these called and where can...

    Regarding scented candles.

    Any recommended scents for a single guy to have in his place? I want it to smell nice in here for when I have guests over, but nothing frou frou. I picked up a "vineyard" candle from Yankee Candle the other day, but it smells like ****** grape soda. Like, straight up Faygo. This is...

    Entertainment Center

    I'm looking to buy an entertainment center in the very near future. I find typical entertainment centers, such as those that display your entire DVD collection, to be very gauche. I want something more sleek, minimal, and with a linear emphasis. Know of anything similar to this...

    Hitting Indianapolis for the day.

    I'm catching the King Tut exhibit today. Any recommendations for dinner in the nearby proximity? Nice, casual, it's whatever. Anything good, interesting, and moderately priced will suit me just fine. Also, is New Belgium available in Indy? If so, where would be a good place to pick up a case...

    Road trip to Boston, Philadelphia, and Washington DC. Recommendations?

    I've done a fair amount of research so far and have an extensive list of things to check out, but I'm open to other suggestions as well. Feel free to make recommendations, and even to help me par down the list. Points of interest: dining, drinking, shopping, art, sight seeing (typical tourist...

    Culinary use of tobacco?

    So, I'm sure we're all well aware that tobacco, at least as a flavor profile, is present in a variety of wines (Malbec, for example). However, as an actual ingredient, physical tobacco leaf itself, does it have a place in food? I'm curious about this. Discuss.

    Olive Oil

    More and more I am beginning to appreciate the importance of quality olive oil in cooking. The cheapo $20 jug from Giant Eagle just isn't adequate for me and seems to ruin many of my otherwise delicious meals. I feel I need to turn it up a notch and use higher quality ingredients. I do it with...

    Solutions for displaying artwork in a home?

    Since moving into my new apartment, I've been pained with the thought of riddling my walls with nails. Rather than hammering in a nail and hanging a free standing piece of artwork, what other options are there? I'm quite fond of the idea of having a dedicated strip running the length of my...

    Magazine Subscriptions.

    What magazines do you subscribe to? I just moved and I'm thinking about taking up a few subscriptions. In the past, I've had Surface, Cigar Aficionado, Food & Wine, and Guitar World. Not to mention Ranger Rick as well, but that was back when I was a wee wayfarer.

    Home bar.

    On the topic of personal bars, I've been thinking about investing into a liquor cabinet or something of the sort. Any suggestions on a bar set-up that works well, looks elegant, and won't bust the bank? As for functionality, I need something that can hold my glass and stemware, liquor...

    Private exchange of tobacco and alcohol on message boards?

    I'm just curious, what are the legalities of buying/selling/trading tobacco and alcohol on a public forum? I was just thinking the other day that it'd be interesting if there were an online community devoted to trading rare and vintage bottles of wine, scotch, bourbon and so on. Of course...

    I'm about to buy a bar/bistro table set, but looking for the best possible deal.

Here's the table and chairs I want. Preferably...

    Budgeting "good life" pleasures.

    While taking a look at my finances recently, I realized I need to come up with a better plan for managing these expensive habits of mine. Out of curiosity, what percentage of your income goes toward higher end luxuries such dining, cigars, drinks, and so on? Any sacrifices you make in other...
