Now They’re Out of Business Taylor Gourmet, which some may know from its outpost at Washington's National airport, has gone out of business. The DCA outpost is the only remaining Taylor Gourmet spot this week. You could spend $60 and get $250 in value out of their program.

Kyoten is a Special Place Not to Miss Last week I flew to Chicago to have dinner at Kyoten, an omakase sushi restaurant in Logan Square which opened just before Labor Day.
