Clear your calendars, hire babysitters, or bribe your in-laws because on August 24, the battle lines will be drawn and the air will be heavy with the scent of warfare—and fried chicken. Chicken Fight Festival, the brainchild of the fiendishly creative minds at DiningOut Events, is strutting back into town. Think of it as the culinary version of WrestleMania but with less spandex and more seasoning.

Welcome to summer kids—the astrological one as well as the meteorological one. (Apparently they are different? I had no idea.) It took for-ever for the warm weather to arrive but it finally appears to be here to stay…much to the dismay of my winter-loving friends. I don’t get them. This is my season and I am here for it—and I am going to be outdoors during it as much as physically possible. (Winter hibernation is so boring.) Here are some of my favorite spots to grab a bite or a drink under a shade in the sun.

There’s so much to love about Fox and the Hen, the new all-day breakfast joint by Carrie Baird—and then there’s the stuff I am obsessed with already. It’s fun, it’s playful, it’s got wallpaper I want to steal and design details I want to copy. Its color palette is perfect. I want the wallpaper. Need it. Want to put my TV in a frame surrounded by it just like they did at the Fox and the Hen. I want a hot sauce wall, too. I want a neon sign glowing against a minimalist wallpapered wall with custom designs. And I want everyone to be as delighted as I am to see a comma joke on a menu.
