Frank
McClelland is one busy guy. He just recently moved his beloved
L’Espalier a hop, skip, and a block from its original location to new
digs at the Mandarin Oriental; opened another Sel de la Terre at the
same hotel; and can now add “author” to his resume. Wine Mondays: Simple Wine Pairings with Seasonal Menus
(Harvard Common Press, 2008; $24.95), penned with local food writer
Christie Matheson, is McClelland’s first cookbook and arguably one of
the first books to approach food and wine pairing in such a simple,
straightforward way that even the biggest wine neophyte can understand
it. Browse the 130 recipes — divided into four-course meals suited for
each season — and try your hand at whipping up some L’Espalier dishes
and choosing the perfect wine pairings. Pick up a copy at Porter Square Books (25 White Street, Cambridge, 617.491.2220) or L’Espalier (774 Boylston Street, Boston, 617.262.3023).

Okay, so there was that one incident involving too many shots, a nauseous sprint to the porch railing, and the next-door neighbor’s car. And, yes, the stuff does taste a little like a worn baseball glove (though kind of in a good way) and smell like something...

You don’t have to wear a ridiculously oversized (albeit totally chic) hat or frequent the Kentucky Derby to appreciate that the Mint Julep has replaced the mojito as the hot oldie-but-goodie cocktail. Al Harding at the B-Side Lounge (92 Hampshire Street...

Our gambling efforts tend to be sub-par, but we love hitting up the casinos for the glitz, the glamour, and, of course, the über-posh nightlife. Foxwoods's long-anticipated new MGM Grand (39 Norwich-Westerly Road, Mashantucket, Connecticut, 866.MGM...

WEDNESDAY, APRIL 30 She's from Florida, he's from England - at first glance, not much in common. But when Alison Mosshart and Jamie Hince met in a South London hotel, the duo realized they were melodious kindred spirits. (Both went to art school...
