(Paraphrasing Roman satirist and poet Juvenal )… The population has become complacent and easily satisfied with the mundane — everything, now restrains itself and anxiously hopes for just THREE things:
BREAD and CIRCUSES and . . . OHO
Music begins at 8:00 (on the patio)
or, in the case of less-than-desirable weather, at 9:00 (in the restaurant)
Bread
Aish MerahrahMade - with fenugreek seeds and maize; dough allowed to ferment overnight, then flattened and baked
Ajdov Kruh - made with buckwheat flour and potato
Babka - Traditional types usually contain some sort of fruit filling, and are glazed with fruit flavored icing; some contain chocolate or cheese filling
Bagel - ring shaped, usually with a dense, chewy interior; usually topped with sesame or poppy seeds baked into the surface
Baguette - Thin elongated loaf, made of water, flour, yeast, salt, instantly recognizable by slits cut in top surface before baking to allow gas expansion
Barbari bread - invented by Barbar tribes of Iran and Northern Afghanistan
Bazlama - Flat and circular, average thickness of 2 cm, usually eaten fresh
Bofrot - Round, comes in various sizes, made with white flour
Circuses
There is no proof that Phineas Taylor Barnum ever said, "there's a sucker born every minute." He did, however, say that "every crowd has a silver lining," and acknowledged that "the public is wiser than many imagine."
Big Apple Circus' four-legged performers are all horses and small dogs. This not-for-profit circus began 32 years ago in Battery Park, New York City. This year’s show, “Bello is Back!” features Bello Nock, the playful clown with gravity-defying hair.
25 years ago Cirque du Soleil began its modern interpretations of the circus, minus rings and animals. With unique artistic flair, Cirque du Soleil featured state-of-the-art costumes, sets and acrobatics set to music.
Zumanity, an adult-themed circus, features contortionists, acrobats and aerialists. The host of the show, the Mistress of Seduction, says there are no bad seats in the 1,261-seat theater. “It is the only Cirque du Soleil show that talks to the audience. They are very much a part of the show,” says the Mistress.

AMBIENCE & WINE
(from Juvenal 55 AD - 127 AD, Roman poet & satirist)
"A healthy mind in a healthy body."
"Be gentle with the young."
"Be rich to yourself and poor to your friends."
"The people that once bestowed commands, consulships, legions, and all else, now concerns itself no more, and longs eagerly for just two things - bread and circuses!"
(from The Baltimore Sun, local news publication)
". . . the venture looks like a success. Outside and in, the bistro is full of charm. The outdoor bar was bustling when we arrived, and tables on the wooden deck quickly filled up. Inside, dark gray walls gave the small dining room a cozy feel. Stacks of books and offbeat art created a quirky vibe, but white linens dressed the space up. . . "
(from Ray Jozwiak, creative musician)

(. . . from Monk. . . )
"I say, play your own way. Don't play what the public wants. You play what you want and let the public pick up on what you're doing -- even if it does take them fifteen, twenty years."
"Sometimes it's to your advantage for people to think you're crazy"
"I'm famous. Ain't that a bitch!"
