Well, here's a new one: cops in Mishawaka, Indiana were called to a local park to investigate reports of a naked man sunbathing. When they arrived, they did indeed discover one Mr. Michael Donte Booth, entirely au natural and glistening with olive oil. Nearby, officers found the book Gay Power, a “Kroger bottle of extra virgin olive oil,” two cans of Miller beer, and Marlboro cigarettes. Booth's response? “I’m from New York. Can’t I do this here?”

Join Chef Marc Taxiera as he prepares a six-course tasting menu highlighting the latest vintage of Beppe’s proprietary olive oil crafted by Matteo Baroni of Fattoria delle Fornacelle. This olive oil is hard core: it's made of Moraiolo (comprising most of the blend), Leccino, and Frantoio olives, hand-picked in late October. It has been granted the ‘Chianti Classico DOP’ designation (Denominazione di Origine Protetta – ‘Protected Appellation’), based on the DOC for the namesake wine. Strict regulations govern every step of the production process, from the picking, storing, cleaning, and pressing to the labeling and composition of the oil. $60, 45 East 22nd Street. For reservations please call 212.982.8422.
