Has anyone tried King’s County? A bit steep for such a new distillery, no?

What is the greenest olive oil you can get? In restaurants they would give you sometimes this beautiful bright green olive oil that’s delicious, but can’t seem to find where to buy it. 🥲
It’s for a present so something bougie would work

Falafel sandwiches are vastly overrated.

Going to Charlioftsville next weekend, any wineries, restaurants, breweries, hiking etc...to do there during COVID. Appreciate your insight!!!!

I’m looking for some new things to read or listen to — doesn’t need to be ad-related. Books, podcasts, whaddya got?
I’m not really into fiction, but open to anything. Last books I enjoyed were Junior and Moonwalking with Einstein, last podcast I binged was Startup (Gimlet).

Time to party, bring in the booze, because we already got the peanuts.

Going to take my shot on here:
Does anyone know the name of this Chinese restaurant connected to a run down hotel in DC? Supposed to be one of the few authentic places.
Best Chinese food ever.

Any Metallica fans here ?

Re men profiles with fish pics : I think I’d be impressed more with the next step if you aren’t releasing it back into water. Show me how you cook and then serve it. How many people are you feeding with that fish? These are the stuff that I’d like to see 🤣

Will be in São Paulo next week throughout January! Does anyone have any good bar/restaurant recommendations? TIA

Soliciting ideas for a big closing lunch with clients - near or close to bryant park, my first pick was Gabriel Kreuther but they only do Thurs/Fri lunches (ours would be Tues). Ideas for upscale restaurants appropriate for corporate clients? They said “anything but steak” ha.

Just FYI, if you ever miss an issue in an agreement that you don’t catch until late in the deal process, don’t try to blame it on the other side to your client. You’ll get caught.

I woke up and realized what’s bothering me about my (biglaw) firm.

They’ve been so busy bragging about how great of a job they’re doing responding to client inquiries and guiding them (cont)

We were recently served a “Notice to Consumer or Employee and Objection” (form subp-025). It says that the requesting party is going to seek our client’s records for examination on June 3, 2020. We would like to stop OC from filing a subpoena at all, because the client doesn’t want the witness they are attempting to subpoena to find out about the lawsuit. Would we file a motion for protective order to do this, and if so, when would we need to file by?

You’re on an 8 hour flight (full flight) and the person next to you REEKS of BO. Like, REEKS. So bad that I started wheezing. What would you do?

Hello, any idea of compensation for Director grade in the Technology PEPI space in London? Thank you.

Currently at a super conservative defense firm. I do really well but keep getting the criticism that I tend to just do things on my own initiative. I’m just predisposed to being decisive and rather autonomous. Besides being a solo atty, where would this skillset be better suited? Plaintiffs work?

Do you read multiple books at once? Power through one at a time? Do you set a page or chapter daily/weekly goal? Only do audiobooks? Please share your reading habits so we 🐟 can borrow/steal like artists 🎨.

For me, I set 20-30 pg min/night and listen to a different audiobook to/from work. The audiobook thing is new as I've never read >1 at once. Considering 1 chapter/night w/ 3 different books (3 ch/night)... I just want to read them all though not sure - may muddle if one > others.

I thought it would be good to have a bowl where we can post book reviews / recommendations.

Do you use audio books or find them useful?
