A Little Jazz With That Baked Potato, Please
Nothing gets us so riled up for eating between meals than running across ultra-focused comfort food restaurants that only serve one item. Our disappointment comes as no surprise then, when Totally Baked, Manhattan's only baked potato restaurant, closed its doors after just a few months last year. But we think we know where they went wrong they overlooked the successful formula of potatoes + sour cream + jazz = success.
This time-honored formula works perfectly at the simply-named The Baked Potato, a spud-hawker cum jazz club in Los Angeles' Studio City. The restaurant features live music seven nights a week and serves up a full 20 varieties of baked potato, from teriyaki chicken to hot dog and sauerkraut. Less adventurous potatoheads can get a basic melted cheese version, but it will still come with a side of hot jazz.
It's even date-friendly! With the inclusion of two salads on the menu, The Baked Potato caters to all diets, but we suspect no one has ever made the mistake of ordering these.

Where Britney Spears Power Lunches
We know, we know, we said we were going to stop covering Britney Spears until the poor child got her act together. But with an upcoming guest appearance on hipster comedy "How I Met Your Mother" and a new cartoon music video, we were hopeful that she is slowly getting back to her bad, chart-topping self.
Of course, that was before we found out she had lunch with the previously scandal-ridden Mel Gibson at Russian restaurant Romanov this weekend. Then again, while they were breaking borscht* maybe Mel could give her tips on making a comeback as he did with "Apocalypto" after his TMZ-taped rant o' crazy.
*Sadly, you cannot actually break borscht, as it is soup.
