BusinessWeek has an interesting look at where the business elite - executives at some of the country's most successful companies - go to eat. You might think that their favorite spots would be restaurants like Per Se, Alinea or any number of Vegas hotspots, and while they do eat (and enjoy) some meals there, it turns out that they like just about any place that has good food and a friendly atmosphere. For some, it's a neighborhood diner or an unpretentious steakhouse, while others do prefer more upscale eats, but the staff always plays just a big a role as the food. So, you don't have to be an executive to eat like one - and chances are good you've already had a $3 diner breakfast - you just have to recognize and appreciate some of the finer things in life, wherever they are.

If Hansel and Gretel was your favorite fairy tale because you never made it past the bit where they find an edible house, Prudence Emma Staite has created the perfect room for you. She has designed a room made entirely of chocolate. The chocolate rooms have a solid chocolate fireplace and hearth, skirting boards, chocolate paintings, lickable chocolate walls, lickable chocolate sugar paper, a chocolate chandelier and chocolate vases and logs. The rooms can feed up to 500 people and prices start at £2,500.
