WEEKEND | A tasty (and intoxicating) trip to Ibiza
Last week, I received a most seductive email from Ibiza, the swanky Spanish restaurant at 39 High St. It read: “why not skip school … and go?”
WEEKEND | It's on: Restaurant Week!

I wanted to like Woodland Coffee and Tea. It's hidden enough to be intriguing, small enough to be quaint, and it's right next door to my best friend's apartment — how convenient would that be?
WEEKEND | Mixing and Matching Marinaded Meats at Soul de Cuba
Most people like bread. I love bread. Sandwiches are made with bread, ergo I love sandwiches.
