Farm & Table: Local Food Worthy of a Special Occasion

November 24, 2014 2:32 pm

Celebrating an anniversary? Maybe a special birthday? Or looking to change things up for date night? Farm & Table is the place to go. Yelp reviewers call this restaurant “an occasion type of place.” Here, diners dress up in anticipation of a fine dining experience in a relaxed, rustic atmosphere.

More than 80 percent of the menu is local, featuring seasonal food from the restaurant’s on-site farm as well as nearby farmers and ranchers. Portion sizes may be smaller than expected, according to reviewers, but the dishes are packed with fresh, sharp, and sultry flavors. For the best experience, ask to be seated on the patio to watch the sun set over the farm. Farm & Table is often crowded, so plan to make reservations.

Farm & Table is open 9 a.m. to 2 p.m. Saturdays and Sundays, 5 p.m. to 9 p.m. Wednesdays and Thursdays, and 5 p.m. to 10 p.m. Fridays and Saturdays.

Humorous and Exciting NPR Game Shows

November 20, 2014 2:32 pm

NPR is full of fascinating programs, but none are quite as much fun as its hands-on game shows. With a variety of different topics and styles of questions, these trivia programs are just as much fun to play along with at home as they are for the folks in the studio. Here are two of NPR’s best game shows.

Wait Wait… Don’t Tell Me!
This hour-long weekly quiz show features some of the most prominent people in the worlds of news and entertainment who are often experts in their chosen fields. Playwright and actor Peter Sagal hosts, and a different panel of three journalists or comedians are chosen to participate each week. Listener contestants play a variety of different games against the panelists, though the odds are usually slightly swayed in the listener’s favor.

Ask Me Another
Ask Me Another, one of NPR’s newest game shows, is filmed in front of a live studio audience and broadcasted on NPR radio stations and online. The show is equal parts pub trivia, brainteasers, puzzles, comedy and music, creating a rambunctious hour of game show fun. The contestants are a combination of listeners, audience members, and special mystery guests, and the questions are tricky because they’re tailored specifically toward the contestant.
