Author’s Kitchen & Bar

We’ve been trying to get to the elusive Author’s Kitchen & Bar for the past couple years. Their first location burned down completely. After a while, they finally opened in a new spot but have funky hours and every time we have thought to go, they are closed. Friends have said the empanadas are the best thing they’ve ever had. […]

The film follows Jack Black and Owen Wilson as rival birdwatchers who are competing to identify the most birds in a single year. Lame? To most. To me? It started a casual love for the natural beauty of birds. Fratellos Waterfront […]
