The Rain in Spain Falls Mainly on Bordain

This one requires you to look into the future. It's February. You're cold. But you don't care because you're curling up with a nice warm evening with Anthony Bordain. He will be heating up your winter night February 12th at 8pm at the Stamford Center for the Arts.

You know who he is. I know you do, but let's just pretend you don't. The press release describes him as "the internationally acclaimed chef, author, and host of Travel Channel’s 'No Reservations,' [who] has been dubbed 'the bad boy of cuisine' for his rock star looks and blunt observations about the world of restaurants, chefs, and cooking." That sounds about right (although that rock star reference might be to Keith Richards...but still...).

It's a hot ticket that goes on sale on September 15th, 11am. Depending on the seats, it will run you $39.50 or $47.50, and you can purchase tickets through scalive.org or by calling 203-325-4466. If you're feeling a little VIP, you can buy the fancy package tickets for $83. Those offer premium seats and a little meeting along with a side of greeting Mr. No Reservations himself.
