No More Yachts for Rihanna; An NYC Apartment It Will Be
Is Jaunted's 2008 Celebrity Traveler of the Year getting ready to settle down?
The New York Post reports that our favorite globetrotting pop diva, Rihanna, is forgoing the yachts and jetskis this summer in favor of a Manhattan apartment. The Post says Rihanna is set to rent a luxurious 3-bedroom apartment in Soho, where she'll chill out for a few months. Supposedly, Rihanna bargained down from the asking price of $22,000 a month to the still-pricey $18,000, so she should still have enough cash leftover for a few weekend getaways.
We haven't spotted Riri out and about around Soho yet, but let us know if you see her cruising for new gloves on Canal Street or adding to her body art collection at Sacred Tattoo.

Caffe Falai: Newish Soho Italian Eatery
Looking for the latest in Italian in NY? Might want to try Caffe Falai, which should be re-opened in SoHo, (there was power failure earlier this month) by chef Iacopo Falai, owner of Falai and bakery Falai Panetteria. Be sure to be careful with your red sauce though, this entire joint is white on white on white, even the open-air kitchen.
Interesting menu items include buckwheat papardelle and branzino filets, or new takes on standby's -like fresh beets paired with fried mozzarella. Oh, and leave your black Amex at home, Caffe Falai's cash only. The vibe is casual, and they don't take reservations, so dinner is a better bet for a non-wait than brunch or lunch.
