Eat: Via Alloro

Via Alloro

This wood-and-glass-encased Drago bro's Italian ristorante serves up gourmet pastas (spaghetti w/ sea urchin), fish (farm-raised New Zealand salmon), and red meat (veal Milanese). Drinks include 16 enomatically-dispensed wines and classic cocktails like the Brandy Crusta: Cointreau/lemon juice/Luxardo/Remy Martin, created in 1862, and immediately shouted out in the world's first rap daguerreotype.

Buy: The Names Brand

The Names Brand

Working off the model of the iconic Beatles shirt (John & Paul & Ringo & George.), this just-launched e-shirtery does custom orders, or you can nab pre-made shirts that rep your favorite names, whether it's sports heroes (Pau & Kobe & Derek & Sasha & Andrew.), those who ain't afraid of no ghost (Ray & Egon & Peter & Winston.), or just a bunch of nonsense (Trig & Todd & Track & Piper & Sarah & Bristol & Willow.).

Before the Third St. boutique's move to Hollywood, nab 50-90% off knits from Henrik Vibskov, pants from Wayne Hadly, and blazers from Endovanera, a brand whose accomplishments George Bush insists should be left to the historians to judge.

Go: Lucha Va Voom

Lucha Va Voom

The retro-kitschy Mexican wrestling/burlesque extravaganza's back, with bouts featuring chicken-suited midgets and a moustached grappler named Dirty Sanchez, as well as a duo striptease from dancers Audrey Deluxe and Lucy Fur, whose special area is apparently also retro-kitsch.
