Bar Ivy is bringing West Coast vibes to Clarendon this spring with a seafood towers and a 125-seat patio shaded by crepe myrtles. And while Clarendon already hums with plenty of college bars, Bar Ivy (3033 Wilson Boulevard) will dance to a different tune with a strong focus on dining.

Bar Ivy comes from Blagden Hospitality, the team behind Calico, Fainting Goat, rooftop hangout Hi-Lawn, and Hei Hei Tiger. In contrast to Calico, where the food supports the drinking program (popular with a younger crowd), Bar Ivy has serious food cred with sophisticated dishes and plating in addition to a serious drinks concept, according to a company spokesperson. In fact, there are more dining seats than bar seats at Bar Ivy.

Following the all-day bar/cafe formula, Bar Ivy will open each morning with a casual kiosk serving coffee. The kiosk stands at the corner of the site facing the nearby Metro entrance, with sidewalk-facing coffee service all day for walk-up patrons and a small outdoor bar facing the patio.

The restaurant swings open later in the day with a 20-seat terrazzo, central bar pouring everything from classic cocktails to booze-free beverages. Meanwhile the kitchen, helmed by chef and owner Nathan Beauchamp with help from executive chef Jonathan Till (formerly of Evening Star Cafe in Del Rey), will send out seafood towers, seasonal vegetable mains, meat dishes, and foraged items.

When I was 18 and working in the restaurant industry, I traveled through Northern California for the first time, dined at The French Laundry, Chez Panisse, met Wolfgang Puck. It opened my eyes to the West Coast approach of cooking, using fresh ingredients sourced locally, prepared simply but manipulating them just enough to create something so incredible, Beauchamp said in a statement.

Diners can relax in banquettes or booths are tucked into wavy archways around the room while they eat. An open kitchen offers a glimpse for those who like to see the cooks in action.

Bar Ivys dining room and kiosk are expected to open in spring 2022. The patio will follow shortly after that, when the weather warms later in spring 2022. Lunch and brunch will join the the morning coffee and evening dinner offerings shortly after opening.

The space has been designed by Edit Lab at Streetsense, who also designed Tiger Fork, Calico, and Fainting Goat.

Bar Ivy wont stop growing with its Clarendon location. The Blagden team has already laid plans to plant a second Bar Ivy in Bethesda at 7272 Wisconsin Avenue.

The New Opalhouse x Jungalow Collection at Target Is Here to Refresh Your Home For 2022 - POPSUGAR

The film and photographic images that emerged from the Holocaust, often in a blurrily dark monochrome, instantly became the visual definition of evil in the 20th century. So to set this brutal iconography against the cheerily crisp colours of modern English suburban homes in springtime complete with armchairs, French doors on to patios, bright tulips in pots might risk accusations of superficiality, or worse.

But when the people in these apparently mundane locations are themselves survivors of the Holocaust, the sheer joyful fact of their existence becomes a triumphant rejoinder to the unimaginable cruelty and depravity of three-quarters of a century ago. The new images are collected together in Generations: Portraits of Holocaust Survivors, which opens later this week to coincide with world Holocaust day, at the Royal Photographic Society (RPS) gallery in Bristol after a showing at the Imperial War Museum in London.

The exhibition was initially intended to run in 2020, to mark the 75th anniversary of the liberation of the concentration camps in 1945, and plans were made to photograph the 70 or so Holocaust survivors living in the UK.

Of course lockdown ensured that didnt happen, says the RPS project curator, Tracy Marshall-Grant. Then in spring of last year, when things were looking a little more open, we tried again and it came together remarkably smoothly.

Marshall-Grant has invited fellows of the RPS as well as its patron the Duchess of Cambridge, who, in an unexpected juxtaposition, shares wall space with the Suns longtime royal photographer Arthur Edwards to capture the survivors at their homes, often surrounded by their families. There was no uniform brief, says Marshall-Grant. All the photographers know what they are doing so I just asked them to treat it as one of their own projects. The result is fascinatingly diverse. There are some very traditional portraits but also things that look like they are out of glossy magazines. And the photographers often became close to their subjects and kept in touch. Sian Bonnells picture of Tomi Komoly someone simply in their garden wearing their good clothes has such a warm and personal feel that you wouldnt be surprised if it was a family picture.

This family aspect cuts to the heart of the project. The survivors were young during the Holocaust and down the years have become parents, grandparents and great-grandparents. Along with their families there have also been businesses and charity work and all the other elements of productive and useful lives, says Marshall-Grant. Here they are, products of the lives they have built. Of course the horrors of what they and so many others endured is always there, sometimes directly in these photographs in terms of personal effects from the time and so on. But ultimately it has been such a privilege to work with these people and with this material because what actually comes out of it is not only a sense of revulsion at what happened, but huge admiration and gratitude for the positive legacies that have been allowed to be passed on down the generations.

Sir Ben Helfgott (main picture, above) photographed by Frederic Aranda with his grandson Sam at his home in London, was born in Poland in 1929 and incarcerated in the Buchenwald and Theresienstadt concentration camps. After the war he came to the UK and became a weightlifter, representing Great Britain at the 1956 and 1960 Olympics. He was knighted in 2018 for his contribution to Holocaust education. My experience may have hardened me, made me more realistic about human nature, Helfgott has said, but I was repelled by the evil I witnessed. I despaired but I did not let cruelty and injustice break my spirit.

Dorothy Bohm (above) was living in Lithuania in 1939 when she was sent to the UK to escape the Nazis. She didnt see her family again for 20 years. Bohm went on to become a leading photographer, was a co-founder of the Photographers Gallery and worked into her 90s. This was taken in her home in Hampstead where she talked to photographer Jillian Edelstein about her father. Their separation during the war had been particularly painful, says Edelstein. We decided to use this photograph of him to commemorate that time and to have in the image, almost as a symbol of their survival.

Tomi Komoly (above) lost many family members in the Holocaust. He came to the UK in 1956 as a refugee and had a long career in the chemical industry. Photographer Sian Bonnell wanted the image to share the wisdom of his experience and his incredible strength. In 2020 Komoly was awarded the British Empire Medal for his work telling the story of the Holocaust in schools, and his contribution to the fight against hate crime.

Eve Kanner-Kugler (above) left Germany with her mother after the anti-Jewish attacks of Kristallnacht in 1938. She arrived in New York in 1941 and moved to the UK in 1990. Jane Hiltons triptych includes the lanyard Eve wore for the two-month journey by train and sea and the original manuscript of the book Eve wrote about her mothers life, Shattered Crystals. The centre panel (above) shows Eve with her second cousins grandchildren.

Generations: Portraits of Holocaust Survivors is at the Royal Photographic Society Gallery, Bristol, from 27 January to 27 March.

Chicago has lots of warm patios to choose from. | Taquizo

The cold is here to stay in Chicago, but that doesnt mean its time to head indoors. Midwesterners are always made of sterner stuff and have a tolerance for low temperatures. For the past two years, that fortitude was put to the test as health officials limited indoor dining due to COVID-19, and this winter, with the surprise visit from the omicron variant, it continues. And the fire pits and propane heaters that were en vogue in 2020 have returned. Check out this list of the citys best heated patio options.

As of January 3, the city has mandated that those ages 5 and up be fully vaccinated and masked at public places indoors while not actively eating or drinking. For updated information on coronavirus cases, please visit the city of Chicagos COVID-19 dashboard. Health experts consider dining out to be a high-risk activity for the unvaccinated; it may pose a risk for the vaccinated, especially in areas with substantial COVID transmission. The latest CDC guidance is here; find a COVID-19 vaccination site here.

Note: Restaurants on this map are listed geographically.

DAYTONA BEACH, Fla. (WFLA/NBC) A Florida man had a close call after a violent encounter with a bear when it tried to attack his dogs Wednesday.

Video taken from Walter Hickoxs Ring camera showed the man on patio with his three dachshunds when a black bear crawled over a pet gate, coming dangerously close to the dogs.

Thats when Walter lunged toward the bear, shoving it back out of his home as it clawed at him. Walter managed to trap the bear back outside using a fence.

Oh my God! I got attacked by a bear, Walter yelled after successfully repelling the ursine assailant.

According to NBC affiliate WESH, Walter suffered some puncture wounds and scratches but did not need an ambulance.

Florida Fish and Wildlife Conservation Commission officials said this was the second incident within a week, with a bear tackling a woman while she walked her dog on Jan. 13. However, these encounters are said to be rare.

The FWC said to avoid a violent confrontation with a bear, remove all food attractants from around your home, including pet food and bird seed.

To scare the bear away from your home, you can flip lights on and off and bang on your walls to frighten it off, officials said.

Should your dog get into a fight with a bear, the FWC said to use bear spray or a water hose while making loud noises to scare it away.
