    Fairway & Greene

    What does everyone think of this line? http://www.fairwayandgreene.com/ It is mostly sold in golf shops, but Stockton's here in Atlanta sell the golf shirts for $85-$110. I got a few and think very highly of them, despite the fact that they are made in Korea. I'll match the quality against...

    (jerrysfriend @ June 25 2005,00:06) Non, non, non.  Something more like foie gras poêllà aux figues, chaud-froid de truite, faisan aux pommes, Koulibiac, salade, fromages, savarin, nougat glacÃ, armagnac, a Meursault, a Chambolle-Musigny, a Montbasillac, a Bandol. If I feel merciful, he gets...

    Cap in a fine restaurant

    I have been put to the test. It has happened twice in the last three weeks. First, it was at Ruth's Chris Steakhouse, Buckhead branch, Atlanta; about a $80/person restaurant. My wife, our friend, and I arrived 20 minutes early. They asked us to wait in the bar. While there, I saw a man in his...

    Who would you like to meet on Style Forum?

    I have met Ernest. Although he knows his shopping for great clothes and shoes in Paris (at good prices) and is as irrepressible in person as on the forum, he is not what you would expect of the typical Frenchman. He does not drink (not even coffee) or smoke; nor is he a gourmet. I cannot comment...

    Edward Green sale

    What is the shipping to the USA? I have a vague recollection that it was 30 pounds a couple of years ago. That is an outrageous sum, considering Bennie's was shipping Grensons to Europe for $20.

    'sEdward Greens in narrow sizes in NY?

    (Roger @ June 20 2005,23:16) Please excuse my ignorance, but I thought that the British E width was considered a somewhat narrow fitting. Is this not correct? A British E usually corresponds with an American D. In other words, it's a medium width, not narrow. In my experience an EG E is a USA D...

    Visting Brussels

    Lots of good advice here. You will also find 3 good shoes stores in these galeries: Grenson, Church's and Allen Edmonds. Nearby is Bovy, my favorite Brussels shop; it sells Alden and some other ivy stuff. Be sure to explore the neighborhood around Wittamer for trendy shops and a great...

    Ties Brands

    IMO Drakes, along with Charles Hill (makers of T&A'a ties at one time; not sure of present) are the top two English tiemakers. The best book about ties that I have read about ties was written by a Frenchman with a bit of a bais toward Charvet and Hermes. It is a lovely book, but is poorly bound...

    FRANCE is NUMBER 1

    I do remember reading an article years ago saying that the "big three" of Hollywood were Liam Neeson, James Woods and Willem Defoe. I am not sure who provided the info. Maybe it was Julia Roberts. The article also said, however, that the best endowed of all time was Milton Berle. This is not the...
