...spent together, De Laurentiis had a little bit of oatmeal with maple syrup for breakfast and a Caesar salad with chicken for lunch, followed by several small sweets from a cake shop. At dinner, she ordered three more salads--although, to be fair, one was served with a tuna fillet and another was shared with the table. And she did scoop up every bite of her dessert, an espresso granita with whipped cream. Still, De Laurentiis turned down nearly all the many alimentary offerings routinely presented to famous chefs by fans and job seekers. Except for two bites of chocolate...
...flight comfort with an internet connection in every seat Take a Hike Destinations to restore your sense of wonder have transformed Le Domaine de Fontenay, a rambling French colonial house with huge verandas, into a relaxed nine-bedroom hotel.

The greasy feast was one of 704 similar lunches the board has provided to 339 schools in the prefecture since January 2005. "Reaction from parents has been uniformly positive," declared principal Yukio Hamanaka. Ditto for the students, who played paper-rock-scissors to divvy up seconds...
...loss of originality. A minimalist, city-center bungalow is now the setting for Tetsuya's stunning 10-course degustation menus of Franco-Japanese cuisine (priced around $130). While this is not a seafood restaurant per se, fish features very prominently. Confit of ocean trout is sublime, ditto the trevally fillet with preserved lemon and sushi rice.
