The Edison presents a marriage of refined industrial architecture and art deco chic - a world class lounge that retains the mechanical artifacts from its history as downtown LA's first private power plant. The grand staircase spectacularly descends into the depths of the historic Higgins Building. The Edison revitalizes the art of the classic, hand crafted cocktail with house specialties designed just for the space old-school bourbons luxuriously transformed with a house made lavender & honey infusion. A small, upscale menu of food and drinks. The Edison offers a respectful nod to LA's famed nightlife that haunts Ciros & Coconut Grove and continues to punctuate billiards. You can also enjoy an early evening retro juke box for nightly Cocktail Hours.

Fireside Pies in DFW by Clara Mathews |
|
 Dallas - Fort Worth
Everyone loves pizza and there are endless choices, from the big chains like Pizza Hut to the local pizzeria on the corner. They will deliver it right to your doorstep. So why would you want to wait for a table at Fireside Pies? To taste the best pizza ever that's why!
What makes the pizzas at Fireside Pies any better than the pizzeria on the corner? It could be the fresh dough, covered in fire-roasted tomato sauce and a four cheese blend of Mozzarella, Fontina, Fontinella and Parmesan Reggiano. Or maybe it the combination of all the right ingredients coming together in just the right way to make a mouth-wateringly great pizza. |

Numerous occupants of the Oval Office have been known for a signature cocktail or spirit. Ulysses S. Grant was a bourbon drinker whose Civil War leadership inspired Abraham Lincoln to inquire, "What brand of whiskey Grant preferred," as he "would like to send some to his other generals." John F. Kennedy relished serving daiquiris aboard the Presidential Yacht Sequoia and the common thread between Dwight Eisenhower, Lyndon Johnson and Richard Nixon -- scotch.
