I was thrilled when the women who are organizing The Cashmere Sale, in Westchester, reached out to me to help promote their month long sale. I have been going to The Cashmere Sale for years. I really look forward to it. Basically it is an annual pop up where they slash the prices of the highest quality cashmere sweaters and accessories. Every year the selection is different and each year is better than the next. You can really get something special at a really great price. This year the sale is here in Westchester at The Vernon Place Shopping Center. You can also buy online at https://thecashmeresale.com. Enter the code SCARSDALE for free shipping.

Book Club Monday

posted on : November 7, 2017 posted by : nicolesteinthal 0 Comment

Calling all foodies…one of my all time favorite chefs will release his new book: Nobu: A Memoir tomorrow on November 7th. Chef Nobu changed the Japanese culinary scene when he first opened his namesake restaurant in TriBeCa 23 years ago. Here is the summary:

A fascinating and unique memoir by the acclaimed celebrity chef and international restaurateur, Nobu, as he divulges both his dramatic life story and reflects on the philosophy and passion that has made him one of the world’s most widely respected Japanese fusion culinary artists.

Nobu needs no introduction. One of the world’s most widely acclaimed restaurateurs, his influence on food and hospitality can be found at the highest levels of haute-cuisine to the food trucks you frequent during the work week—this is the Nobu that the public knows.

But now, we are finally introduced to the private Nobu: the man who failed three times before starting the restaurant that would grow into an empire; the man who credits the love and support of his wife and children as the only thing keeping him from committing suicide when his first restaurant burned down; and the man who values the busboy who makes sure each glass is crystal clear as highly as the chef who slices the fish for Omakase perfectly.

What makes Nobu special, and what made him famous, is the spirit of what exists on these pages. He has the traditional Japanese perspective that there is great pride to be found in every element of doing a job well—no matter how humble that job is. Furthermore, he shows us repeatedly that success is as much about perseverance in the face of adversity as it is about innate talent.

Not just for serious foodies, this inspiring memoir is perfect for fans of Marie Kondo’s The Life-Changing Magic of Tidying Up and Danny Meyer’s Setting the Table. Nobu’s writing does what he does best—it marries the philosophies of East and West to create something entirely new and remarkable. – Amazon.com
