A week ago, The Bodega Tall Boys, my son's band, appeared at William Skody's Cafe Wha? Words can barely describe how wonderful the experience was for me, i.e., enjoying and witnessing Alex doing what he loves best and doing it well. Making things even better was the fact that we were surrounded by family, friends, Gothamites and fans. Representative of the universally positive feedback the Tall Boys received was a message on Facebook from a Friend: "had a great time last night, thanks for inviting us… Alex is a very talented young man, U should be very proud of him".  An extra added bonus was the opportunity to introduce the band from the stage.  My introduction was as follows: "Who says you don't get a second chance to make a good first impression?  Ladies and gentlemen--The Bodega Tall … [Continue reading...]

Ayurveda Cafe

Ayurveda is very clear when it comes to food. Sattvic (pure) food is needed to heal and maintain good health and must incorporate six tastes in every meal: sweet, sour, salty, bitter, astringent and pungent. At Ayurveda Cafe we believe food cooked and served with compassion adds a powerful value to the dining experience. That power may be invisible to the human eye but it can be felt by you. Ayurveda is the science of life, a 5,000-year-old traditional holistic system of well-being from India. 'ayur' means 'of life' and Veda' means 'knowledge'. Ayurveda is the knowledge of longevity which offers healing, rejuvenation and self-realization through balanced food, herbs, yoga, massage, aroma, and meditation. Ayurveda teaches us to pay attention to how and what we eat, and to take … [Continue reading...]
