Fun Fridays at Dish



Dish, the restaurant and market hybrid has introduced Fun Fridays, a happy hour alternative, where for $25, guests can sample from a selection of 25 wines paired with made-in-house appetizers, including salads, cheeses and breads.  [via AZCentral.com ]

the dish on Dish



My Dish MarketMonday dinner at Dish with my boyfriend. Prior to that, we had never been there but we always passed by it. We've always been curious, what with its dark ambiance from the road at night, and the interesting name and logo. It's part gourmet-market and part-restaurant.

"Are you coming for chips?" is topic of calls and emails being circulated on Thursdays and Friday mornings among us. And yes, we wouldn't miss it unless we really couldn't!

chill at Olive & Ivy



After a long day of shopping at Fashion Square, which included an unnecessary frivolous trip to Mont Blanc to get a new fountain pen (or pain, I should say, to my wallet), my boyfriend and I wanted to unwind before heading home. Olive a& Ivy is still one of our favorite stops whenever we're in that area. It's a hip and casual place, with a classy ...
