Rating 3.00 out of 5 [?]My newest lust. The Ducati Multistrada 1200S is the newest phenomena from Italy. “Multistrada” meaning “Many Roads” is exactly what this hi-tech transformer of a superbike is made for. The Multistrada can, at the push of a button literally, transform the power, suspension, ABS, traction control gizmo’s to any road and [...]

Nashville was a town I went to with no pre-existing expectations, no personal references as what I might expect. [...]

Rating 3.50 out of 5 [?]Newly opened Bottega Louie is one of my new favorites. An oasis in the middle of sometimes dreary downtown Los Angeles, this polished, marble and brass space is cavernous, light and airy. The glass cases are filled with delights both sweet and savory. The bar beckons, if only I was [...]
