ForbesLife has a fantastic new look in its March issue, thanks to new editor-in-chief Richard Nalley. My favorite part of the March issue? It would have to be the Bookmarks: Tips from Local Insiders section (page 55). This month’s column focuses on New York City, and the restaurant tip in the column comes from…Salmaland. The magazine excerpts a Salmaland writeup on one of my favorite spots for a delicious, no-brainer meal —if you consider buttery steak, perfect salty-crisp fries, and the absence of a menu to be pretty damn near close to heaven.
My second favorite part of the issue: the cowboy boot beauty shot on page 27. The Spanish Sendra boots in the photo look a little like the vintage brown cowboy boots I bought in Houston many years ago, and that I’m still wearing despite the fact that they’re hanging on by barely a thread. The chocolate-brown Sendras in the shot are luscious enough to eat, and if I can resist doing that, I may soon be taking them out for a test-drive on the brutal NYC sidewalks.
