Join us for a free night of DJ sets and a lively night market at "Pickin' on the Polk" After Hours on April 25, 2026, from 6 PM to 10 PM.

Oatman, Arizona, feels unapologetically kitschy with staged Wild West shoot-outs and souvenir shops lining dusty boardwalks, making it a memorable tourist destination.

Nobuyuki Miyaoka, attending the festival, notes that the local oysters used to be a lot bigger, expressing concern over their current small size and scarcity.

The Undisputable Geniuses of Comedy 2026 features Portland's funniest people and hilarious up-and-comers all on one stage, promising a night of laughter and entertainment.

The brisket at Smoking Jay is pink ringed, delicately striated, and glistening in all the right places. Great brisket shouldn't even be in the same room with a knife, and that's very much the case here: it's right in the fork-tender sweet spot.

"It was a dream that I never knew was a possibility," F10 founder Tara Lazar told SFGATE. "I love these institutions, these watering holes of the desert. The Tack Room truly has so much goodwill and a great reputation."

The Castro Night Market, featuring local food vendors, merchants, and live entertainment, returned on March 20, 2026, with the vibrant theme 'Spring Fling.'

Khao Soi is the undisputed showstopper; their soul-warming recipe features a velvety curry that clings to chewy egg noodles, with a gentle kick from green chile and served with tart and salty pickled mustard greens.

The tomato soup is silky smooth and appreciably tangy, providing pure comfort food for watching an away game on a rainy day, especially when paired with a grilled cheese.

Gunlock Falls has only shown up four times in the past 15 years and is reliant on the capacity of the reservoir above it: When the reservoir surpasses its maximum capacity, the water flows over the spillway and down over the bright red rock below, creating Gunlock Falls.

The signature bar snack (or as the menu playfully puts it, "snak") here is Sinclair's riff on Chex Mix, which incorporates crunchy ramen noodles, almonds, and spicy-oily Sichuan chile crisp ($12). You'd be remiss not to order some of Sinclair's fluffy focaccia. I had it as part of the Rosemary's Other Baby plate, which came with a rosemary-laced tomato jam that the owner thriftily imparts added flavor from the bar's wine.

We feel a deep personal connection to the region. Being able to return today through our work with coffee gives us a meaningful opportunity to reconnect with the community and contribute with a larger purpose. - Claudia Campos, co-founder

Though Drummond had plans to head to Chicago to attend law school, Ladd Drummond, a multigenerational cattle rancher, had other ideas. The two married in 1996 and moved to his ranch in Pawhuska, Oklahoma. Her friends started calling her "The Pioneer Woman" as a joke, but the moniker stuck.

Mathematicians and other arithmetic aficionados have been honoring that irrational number every March 14-as in 3.14, the first three digits of π-since 1988, if not earlier. It was on March 14 of that year that Larry Shaw, a staff physicist at San Francisco's Exploratorium, devised the holiday.

We've got business up top, fun on the bottom. So if we want to, we have the ability to work and then pop in the water for a little surf sesh." - Travis Laub, describing the hybrid work-play setup at the beach event where attendees could seamlessly transition between professional tasks and ocean activities.

Expatriate opened in the summer of 2013 as a moody, stylish companion bar to Naomi Pomeroy's legendary Beast across the street. Owner and bartender Kyle Linden Webster, the late chef's husband, brought recipes and aesthetics inspired by his world travels to the Concordia neighborhood, as well as a genre-spanning collection of vinyl. The drinks matched the vibes: lush, layered, often drawing inspiration from Southeast and South Asian countries.

Students from across Minnesota are invited to submit designs for a permanent memorial at a 2,247 sq. ft site outside the Cup Foods at East 38th Street and Chicago Avenue, where Floyd died in May 2020 after former officer Derek Chauvin knelt on his neck. The intersection has since been renamed George Perry Floyd Square and features a traffic circle with a temporary memorial at its centre.

Kaede, opened by married couple Shinji and Izumi Uehara in the quiet Sellwood neighborhood in 2023, is a sushi kappo restaurant, serving a mix of sushi and cooked dishes - a little buttoned-up, but less formal than a kaiseki restaurant. Shinji stands behind the sushi counter, while Izumi is the server and the head of the kitchen.

Vy Chao chalks it up to 'user error,' pointing out how they would hunt after finishing work, during traditional American dinner hours. At the time, locals mainly ate paella for lunch; the versions served at dinner were usually made for tourists. But on a return trip last year they found better luck, and paella, noting that the city had adapted to tourists' dining habits.

With Portland sextet Abronia, you sort of have to listen past the spectacle. Forget about the overtly Jodorowsky-Morricone vibes, the tenor sax and the pedal steel guitar, the contralto vocals, the gigantic bass drum, the legend of co-founder Eric Crespo's desert vision. What's really going on here?
