...Jealous, angry and more than a little interested in what one of these muses looks like, I canceled an important mid-workday Foosball game and met Amanda Brooks, the muse of Tuleh, at Cafe Lebowitz. She looked the part--like a Klimt painting, tall and thin with wavy golden hair and a Tuleh blouse speckled with drips of gold--and even trumped my corporate Amex with a magical tab that Tuleh employees never have to pay, thanks to a barter deal.
