Last night a friend and I had a late (11 p.m. reservation!) dinner at a fine NYC establishment that, while it had fantastic food (pork belly! short ribs! this dark chocolate-passion fruit sorbet that I want to try to reverse engineer in my KitchenAid!), possessed one fatal flaw: The music playing was by The Doors.
