You probably know the renowned piece Under the Wave off Kanagawa, aka The Great Wave. What you might not know is that it’s from a series called Thirty-Six Views of Mount Fuji and that we have… at least a couple of those views as canvas prints.
BABY YOU’RE A SPIREWORK
Gratis Doner Kebabs from a Top Chef Alum
Situate yourself at Spireworks’ grand opening tonight, from 6pm to 9pm, and Top Chef Seattle chef Kuniko Yagi will take care of dinner. To be clear, “take care of dinner” here means “bring you gratis kebab sandwiches, Baja-style or Peking-style.” Yes, that sounds like the accurate definition.
HUNGRY LIKE A WOLFGANG

PIZZA PLEASER
Modern Italian with a Side of Ocean Breeze
Nov 18 Meet O+O Sicilian Kitchen. This beachside beauty arrives with an open-air patio, mezcal-matcha cocktails and gorgeous plates bearing spicy salami pizzas, pistachio lamb meatballs and prawn carpaccio. If San Junipero had an Italian restauant, it would probably look like this.

Operation Snow Job

It’s the best way to experience winter without, you know, living somewhere cold.

BROOKLYN’S FINEST
Roberta’s Pizza and Marvin Have a One-Night Stand
The best thing to come out of Brooklyn in a good while is probably Roberta’s, the famed Bushwick pizzeria. They’re taking over Marvin wine bar for an entire Sunday, a Sunday in which you can pair Marvin’s stellar wine with Roberta’s wood-fired pies, if only for a day, if only for one beautiful day.
