Okay, today is officially food-related news day, but this is a sad announcement indeed. Juna’s — second home of the Ithaca Times, and our number one choice for a hot cup of joe during the winter and a scoop of Purity during the summer — is calling it quits. There really aren’t too many other […]

To continue today’s food-themed posts, here’s another French music-inspired night at Pangea, one of our favorite local restaurants. Speaking from personal experience, these nights are fabulous, the food is amazing, and Franck Vidal is the best singer! Get a reservation while you can . . .
CAN YOU CAN-CAN?

Bringing harira to your kitchen. . .

Oh. My. God.
During my nightly perusal of Tastespotting (essentially it’s all food porn, and a great aggregator, ala hype machine or elbows, but for cooks), I found this amazing recipe for harira, a traditional Algerian or Moroccan soup. My heart fluttered a little bit when I saw the delicious looking photo, as I basically subsisted […]

Chili Cook-Off tomorrow!

Mmmm mmm the chili festival on The Commons is tomorrow! Despite having lived in Ithaca for almost six years, I have yet to attend this staple winter event. I know, I know. But I’ve been on a huge chili kick lately (vegetable & three bean, if you must know) and this seems like a great […]

Nuages at Pangea Thursday

If you’re looking for something nice to do on Thursday, especially if it’s —ahem— a special day of sorts, then perhaps this is the thing for you. Pangea’s food is excellent, and the live music is lovely too (we saw Nuages play on Bastille Day). And with this unseasonably warm weather, we’re hoping that the […]

Happy Bastille Day!

Tonight, we’ll be celebrating Bastille Day at Pangea. Nuages will be playing French songs starting at 8pm in honor of Bastille Day, which falls on July 14th — and if you come dressed in costume, you’ll get a glass of wine a la maison. Pangea is located at 120 3rd Street in Fallcreek. Pangea is […]

This week in the IT.

Take a break from baking pies, sweeping floors, basting turkeys, and being thankful to check out what’s featured in the Ithaca Times this week. Our cover story this week is about the Johnny Cash tribute concert — featuring Chickenwire Parachute, the Don Bazley Projectiles, Missing Marcus, Sean Kobuk, Common Railers, PJ & G Marcus, and […]

… plus some other miscellani. Our cover story covers a host of Russia-related events: Cornell’s Shostakovich Festival, the Moscow Ballet at the State Theatre, and the Moscow State Symphony. The Moscow State Symphony is playing tonight, and you can enjoy them play selections by Tchaikovsky and Rachmaninoff tonight at the newly renovated Bailey Hall on […]

Hopefully you’ve already read and spotted the ridiculous number of times the blog was mentioned in this week’s paper. Today marks the official unveiling of Popcorn Youth, and I’m all atwitter with excitement! Here’s a quick breakdown of what you can expect from the IT A&E section this week.
Here is this week’s Encore. Just […]
