ah -- the valrhona chocolate souffle. it's a magic thing.

back from a dinner at bouley. while the souffle is as magical as ever, the chocolate prune armagnac ice cream that accompanies it -- and which frankly used to steal the show -- is not. such is life.

still it's great that bouley, just four blocks from the world trade center, has also reopened. it's as friendly, comfortable, and peaceful as ever, even if the food still isn't quite what it once was. . .the new entrance alone is stunning -- a simple, softly lit, white corridor holding racks of fragrant lady apples. their perfume in that small space is delicious, inviting, comforting. . .

on a more practical note, i have been looking at the browser statistics for the site recently. to prepare for the coming switch to ever-groovier web technology, i've been trying to get a more accurate feel for what browsers you use when you visit. so far, i'm pleased to say that the most common computer you use is the mac. this means my most common browser is IE 5 for the mac. however, i am discovering that between 15 and 20 percent of you are still using netscape 3 and 4. these older netscape browsers will not be capable of rendering the new site.

i don't want to leave you behind when we all go forward into the glorious web future. if you are using an older version of netscape, please upgrade to netscape 6 as soon as possible!
