Where there’s something that just feels spot on about GOOP KITCHEN’s newly-opened first NYC outpost, located just off Times Square.
As profiled here in the NYT, it joins the list of certain kinds of L.A. food-scene staples, like EREWON and CANYON COFFEE, that are finally coming to the restaurant-and-coffee desert of NYC to show us how it’s done. So, enjoy your GOOP gluten-free pizza with slivers of broccolini, NYC.
THEN: SAG-AFTRA and the AMPTP have reached a tentative deal, 4 years in nature, just like the WGA. The DGA begins its talks next Monday.
