Bring a Toy, Take a Spin



For the third year, Platinum Motorcars will be hosting Ultimate Toy Drive this Saturday, December 3 from 11 a.m.-3 p.m. here in West Village next to Avalon Salon in the North Alley.

Bring a new, unwrapped toy for Bryan's House, and you'll get to take a spin in an exotic vehicle! 
(think Lambos and Ferraris..)



Don't forget to read the fine print:
Each driver will need a minimum of $100,000 in property damage coverage on automobile liability insurance. Route will be pre-mapped and drives will be chaperoned.

Stop by West Village before then and you'll get a sneak peek at one of the Ferraris parked outside right now!

Proud Mama Wants To Brag...

I saw this as I literally slurped down my last drop of Beef Pho soup from Malai Kitchen; at just $6 for a larger-than-life 'small' bowl, they are on my speed dial for lunch! It's actually rather embarrassing how I can just say my name and they already know my order... 
Any-who, I almost choked on my soup in excitement that our very own Malai has been named one of "The Best New Restaurants in Dallas 2011" by D Magazine

Gobble Up Black Friday Deals in West Village

Let's be honest... after the tryptophan kicks in, the last thing you'll want to do is get in a fight over a parking spot, only to stand in a mile-long line to find out that the thing you have been pining over all year is completely sold out. (I swear I'm not still bitter...)


Instead, avoid the shuffle and take a leisurely stroll through the West Village (hot chocolate in-hand), and peruse the goods at your own pace. While you're here, stop and grab a bite or treat to refuel. Here's the skinny on what we've got going on for this Thanksgiving holiday...

You're Invited: DEMERARA Grand Opening

Just as we promised... 
Here is your personal invitation to the glitzy and glamorous Grand Opening Celebration of DEMERARA.
You're just one click away.


Must-See Flick





Recently a VHS copy was found of the 1995 interview with Steve Jobs and Bob Cringely. Cringely did a memorable hour-long interview during the making of his TV series "Triumph of the Nerds" about the birth of the PC, with Jobs. Now, the entire interview has been cleaned up with modern technology, and put into context by Cringely. 

For TWO days only, (November 16 & 17!) you will be able to witness the burning passion of Steve Jobs, a passion that would go on to give us the iMac, the iPod, the iPhone and the iPad.

Don't miss out! Click to read more and view showtimes.
