The must-try desserts include honey cake with ricotta Chantilly, chocolate peanut butter panna cotta and Fruity Pebble ice cream "sammies."

New lunch options include a layered club sandwich and what they call the Lyon burger.

"Tonight & Tomorrow offers multiple indoor dining spaces designed to hold intimate or group dining and a large outdoor dining space in La Colombe d'Or's sculpture garden."

FOR FANS OF early music — an often scholarly lot who aren’t afraid to wear their hearts on their sleeves — bad-boy Baroque-era painter Caravaggio certainly nailed something in his dramatic 1595 painting, “The Musicians.” (Simon Schama talks about this in his TV series The Power of Art.) One look at his masterpiece, and you feel as if you’ve stumbled upon and surprised a roomful of dewy-eyed musicians, their youthful faces swollen with melancholy, with the lutist looking like he’s about ready to burst into tears before he’s even tuned his instrument. So no, you certainly don’t need a Ph.D. to enjoy and be moved by the music of Handel, G.P. Telemann, or J.S. Bach, but a little bit of scholarship never hurt anyone. Knowing the history of this music may even deepen your appreciation of it.
