family ties, Baby Keem ft. Kendrick Lamar

family ties will undoubtedly go down as one of the defining songs of our current musical era. Featuring Kendrick Lamar and Baby Keem, two of the most in-vogue rappers, this track represents Keems mainstream breakout and new beginnings for Kendrick.

Unapologetic in all aspects of its production, family ties exudes the confidence of two artists who fully understand their significance. Cocky lines such as Kendricks Smokin on your top five tonight and Keems The girl of your dreams to me is a fan are substantiated by the tracks downright fantastic production. The songs blistering instrumentals include boisterous horns and manic 808s that swerve through multiple tonal shifts, combining with Keems marathon-level delivery to elevate the track from song to spectacle.

family ties will amp you up and leave you exhilarated. It reminds you that Keem and Kendrick are running the show and proves theyll have much more to offer in the future.

INDUSTRY BABY Lil Nas X ft. Jack Harlow

Lil Nas X really has a knack for controversy and writing memorable tunes. INDUSTRY BABY is undoubtedly one of the catchiest earworms of 2021.

Its loud, boisterous brass and snare drums call back to marching bands and give it a triumphant sound, with an absolutely addictive hook. Its rebellious and still has that outsider underdog feel to it, despite its production value. Jack Harlows verse fits well with the song, though his role in the music video seems a little misplaced. Lil Nas X injects humor, sexiness and attitude into an absolutely captivating performance.

Put best by one commenter on YouTube, Salvador Rodona: Never thought Id see a male version of WAP.

SWEET / I THOUGHT YOU WANTED TO DANCE, Tyler, The Creator

The longest song from Tyler, The Creators latest album, SWEET / I THOUGHT YOU WANTED TO DANCE features rare emotional vulnerability on an album that is otherwise defined by Tylers extravagance and tasteful arrogance.

Musically, the track is upbeat with dynamic and diverse instrumentals influenced by R&B, West Coast hip hop, jazz and reggae, but lyrically, the song has a completely different tone. In the first half, Tyler sings about a romantic relationship, stating his love is so strong a diamond couldnt put a dent in it. However, in the second half, Tyler slowly expresses mixed emotions about his love, culminating in one of the best rap verses on CALL ME IF YOU GET LOST where Tyler boldly reveals he wishes he never even met the person he fell in love with.

Despite being nearly 10 minutes long, every second of SWEET / I THOUGHT YOU WANTED TO DANCE is memorable thanks to its captivating blend of musical styles and emotional themes. Once again, Tyler, The Creator has leveled up as a musician and raised the bar for modern hip-hop.

All Too Well (10 Minute Version) (Taylors Version) (From the Vault), Taylor Swift

Taylor Swifts Red (Taylors Version) broke the internet and made one of Swifts most beloved albums into one of the top albums of the year.

The most highly anticipated track off the rerecording was certainly the frequently teased 10-minute version of fan-favorite, All Too Well. While the 10-minute version stayed true in many ways to the original release, the additions and overall feeling of the song absolutely shocked fans, completely taking the world by storm. The track became the longest song to ever chart at number one and the longest song to ever be performed on Saturday Night Live.

Despite the sheer mass of the track, it truly is as marvelous as everyone says. Its a full story, a full relationship, in the span of one track. The heartbreak and the memories are palpable in the lyrics, and Swifts tender and intimate emotional revisitation of a 10-year-old track is baffling in its cutting realness. All Too Well (10 Minute Version) (Taylors Version) (From the Vault) is a beautiful trip down memory lane that will stick in our minds for a long time to come.

BIG PERSONA, Maxo Kream ft. Tyler, The Creator

The lead single off of Weight of the World, Maxo Kreams third studio album, this boisterous southern rap tune, definitely fits into the sonic trend of this portion of Tyler, The Creators career.

He has expressed that his most recent studio album, CALL ME IF YOU GET LOST, is intended to emulate the legendary King of Philly: Gangsta Grillz tapes of yore. BIG PERSONA doesnt deviate from this trend. The thunderous horns that comprise the beats main melody have become staples of Tylers recent production work as a result of their heavy use by Gangsta Grillz mastermind DJ Drama. However, Tyler also throws in a subtle homage to Maxos hometown of Houston with the songs drums, which have a slower, lilting pattern that has become a trademark of the citys hip-hop sound.

Its nice to hear both artists, who have reputations for conveying phenomenal pain and heartsickness in their music, celebrate their success together and have a little bit of rambunctious fun.

Hotel Breakfast, Bladee

Bladees Hotel Breakfast off of The Fool was by far his most popular release of 2021 and is slowly becoming his most listened to track of all time on streaming services.

Despite the songs controversy among more devoted fans, as well as the Swedish rappers unstable reputation within internet music circles, its undeniable how immediately fun and strikingly memorable Hotel Breakfast can be. It doesnt take itself too seriously, but still manages to cultivate a sense of sincerity through Bladees ethereal yet catchy vocals. Its melodic and unforgettable; itll make you laugh, itll make you think, itll make you sing, itll tell you a story its simply Bladee at his best.

And if youre a fan of hip-hop, rap or lyricism, you will not fail to see the genius, the beauty and the emotion behind one of the most incredible bars in recent memory: Im Bladee, she call me Bladee-y.

Conor Durkin, Daily Arts Writer

Heart Storm, Serpentwithfeet ft. NAO

Heart Storm sounds just how its titled. Serpentwithfeets voice pulls you in like a tornado, forcing surrender, while the interval bass enters and leaves like thunder getting closer and closer. The track washes over at first, with Serpentwithfeets quiet vocals and repetition of bass, but as it progresses, it builds into a downpour. NAO enters the track unapologetically, calling for boundless love. It is the perfect track to play when the feelings of an overwhelming crush take over.

Katy Trame, Daily Arts Writer

Hard Drive, Cassandra Jenkins

This gem of a song was released in January of 2021 but has been stuck in my brain the entire year. Jenkinss voice is so warm and intimate that even her patchwork of barely relatable interactions with museum security guards and consoling psychics feel familiar. As she transitions seamlessly from spoken word to meditative chorus, Jenkins collects these disparate moments with strangers into one cohesive tapestry of human nature. She isnt trying to make sense of all her experiences; instead shes letting twists of grief and healing mingle and wash over her.

A voice clip of the aforementioned museum security guard opens the track and reminds Jenkins that, When we lose our connection to nature, we lose our spirit, our humanity, our sense of self. Over hazy guitar and airy swells of saxophone, Jenkins invites us to scour our own hard drive of memories and dwell on our humanity for just a moment. She counts to three in steady intonations, reassuring the listener that, All those little pieces / One, two, three / Were gonna put em back together now / Are you ready? At its core, Hard Drive is a glimmeringly gorgeous delineation of feeling whole again despite the fractured struggles of the past year.

Tears in Abyss, deaths dynamic shroud

It doesnt feel all that forced to say that plunderphonics (otherwise known as sampling) is one of the most important innovations to be introduced to pop music and perhaps just music in general. However, what might in fact be forced to say is that the next great innovation was realizing that other modern pop songs were perfectly suitable phonics-to-be-plundered.

Not only is Tears in Abyss by deaths dynamic shroud one of the best songs of the year, it also serves as a perfect case study of this phenomenon of pop recycling. Built up from Demi Lovatos Skyscraper and Kelsea Ballerinis the way i used to, this song achieves a level of glitch pop maximalism that feels frankly unheard of in the genre. Even so, it seems just as fair to call it vaporwave given deaths dynamic shrouds well-defined status within that genre. Every conceivable open space is filled with a unique set of moving textures and rhythms in a way that feels both repetitive and ever-changing.

This sense of morphing is most notably recognized in the way Lovatos and Ballerinis vocals are shifted and manipulated in an off-putting yet organic way. It sounds strange to call something constructed in such a macabre manner emotional, but there isnt really any other way to put it. Jumping, laughing, crying, screaming its all there to be unraveled.

Spud Infinity, Big Thief

So often, infinity is interpreted with terror or at least trepidation. But on Spud Infinity by alternative folk outfit, Big Thief, there is a determined joy to infinity you can hear the resolve in each bow of the fiddle.

The jaw harp bounces as a happy backbone to the song, with the drums and sunny guitar filling out the piece. The band finds the perfect line between profundity and just plain silliness in their lyrics, inspecting our size on this earth through talk of ants, elbows and knishes. My listening experience is best when I let my imagination roam free: Sometimes I picture them playing this in the back of a pickup truck under sunny skies, sometimes around a campfire late at night. Wherever they wind up, you can feel the bands intense connection to each other, both musical and emotional, in the full-heartedness with which this piece is performed. Adrianne Lenkers sweet whup! at the end draws the listener into the kind and frenzied dance of this song.

M. Night Shyamalans psychological thriller, Servant, is back for season 3. And while teasing whats to come, the showrunner revealed why hes ending the Apple TV+ series with season 4.

Servant premiered in 2019 to critical acclaim. By the second season, which hit Apple TV+ in January 2021, the show grew in popularity, and its finale cliffhanger left audiences wanting more.

Servant Season 3 hits the streamer on Jan. 21. And it has already been renewed for a fourth installment. Shyamalan, whose daughter Ishana Shyamalan serves as writer and director, is ending the series with Season 4. And he says its because he wants the show to be driven by its story, not viewership.

Its tricky because if youre doing an episodic show, its not as problematic, he told TV Line. But on a serialized show, youre kind of going, Did the audience like it? OK, weve got another season! And you feel that were just adding on additions to the house rather than [focusing on] its natural design.

Acknowledging the shows growing audience, Shyamalan said he doesnt want to keep going only to appease ratings. Its a tricky balancing act because the information thats driving you is coming in yearly, he suggested.

Part of the reason I wanted to get to a finish line: I dont want to be telling a story in relation to the decay or rise of the audience, Shyamalan added. Hopefully, the audience will feel that integrity, and itll resonate with them as they move forward.

Servant follows the story of Dorothy (Lauren Ambrose) and Sean Turner (Toby Kebbell), their mysterious new nanny, Leanne (Nell Tiger Free), and Dorothys brother, Julian (Rupert Grint). Last season, after finding out Leanne was part of a strange cult, Dorothy kidnapped and tortured the nanny, pressuring her to get Jericho back.

But after the finale in which Leanne shuns her cult in favor of Dorothy the dynamic between the two has changed. And according to Ishana Shyamalan, season 3 will find the pair in a much more respectful place. But she hints fans will have until the end of the season to see how their relationship pans out.

RELATED: Servant Season 3 Will Find Dorothy Helping a Paranoid Leanne

Where they start out in Season 3 is actually a really beautiful place, she told TV Line. They are all coexisting in this family unit and seeing if it can work as this family of four brought together by these crazy circumstances. Its very fraught and beautiful in many ways, and well see if it can work out.

The first two seasons of Shyamalans Apple TV+ series aired with ten episodes each. And it seems the new installment will be just as long.

Servant Season 3 will also air with ten episodes. The show premieres on Jan. 21 and will drop new episodes weekly, on Fridays.

When you live in a small house or apartment, fitting in everything you need is difficult. Trying to fit everything and making it look cute is an even bigger challenge, but that's what makes small space design so fun: Coming up with clever solutions to those obstacles makes it all the more rewarding in the end. Whether you live in a studio apartment or want to get more out of a tiny room in a small house, these small space design ideas will make it feel so much larger while maintaining style.

1Incorpoate Reflective Materials

Opt for white lacquered walls and glossy tiles, as designer Brian Patrick Flynn did here. The high-shine materials are reflective and will generate the same maximizing effect that a mirror will, bouncing light and making for a generally airer space.

SHOP TILES Zellige Tiles, $2

2Opt for Pocket Doors

Pocket doors with glass windows allow for shared light to flow throughout the space while also creating separation. And even better, they slide right into the wall when not being used, taking up much less space than swinging doors.

SHOP DOORS IKEA Sliding Doors, $180

3Be Resourceful

When space is limited and you don't want to shop for new, bulky furniture, use a chair as a side table and install wall sconces to save surface space. A cheerful color, like this pale turquoise hue, is also a good idea to set a happy mood in a tiny room.

SHOP SCONCES Arc Mid-Century Sconce, $79

4Shrink Your Dining Table

Small round tables aren't just for breakfast nooks. Ditch the giant dining table and give yourself some extra space by opting for a small, round dining table instead.

SHOP TABLES Marble Dining Table, $999

5Use a Day Bed

Add a day bed and watch your bedroom double in size. If you don't have a designated guest room, this could also come in handy in your living room.

SHOP BEDS Monarch Hill Daybed, $672

6Express Yourself Everywhere

Yes, even on the fridgeno, especiallyyour fridge and other bulky appliances. Since there's limited space for extras and less room to pile in all your favorite items, you'll need to beautify everything. Here, Anthony Dunning turned a regular old refrigerator into a design opportunity by dressing it up in removable wallpaper.

SHOP REMOVEABLE WALLPAPER Peel and Stick Paper, $150

7Mount Your TV

A media console is the biggest space waster in a small living room. Mount your TV on the wall or above a fireplace and you'll regain necessary floor space.

SHOP WALL MOUNTS TV Wall Mount, $30

8Hide Your TV

Or, even better, hide it! Whether inside of a credenza or disguised as artwork, this design trick is perfect for anyone whose living room is always their family room, dining room, and/or more.

SHOP MEDIA CABINETS TV Stand, $300

9Do Double Duty

Pieces that can serve multiple purposes are key: Find a table that can function as a desk and dining table, get a deep sofa that can double as a guest bed, or buy cubes that serve as a coffee table and bonus seats when guests are over.

SHOP SEATING Storage Ottoman, $315

10Take Advantage of Architectural Quirks

Every single inch counts in a small house, so be sure to take full advantage of architectural quirksthis way, they'll actually become your favorite thing about the space. That radiator by your window? Invest in a pretty radiator cover and customize a cushion so you can use it as a window nook to read and relax in. (And you'll be able to forgo the bulky couch that'll take up half the studio!) Pile on the pillows and add a pendant light for tasks, as Jae Joo did here.

SHOP RADIATOR COVERS Radiator Cover, $255

11Use Mirrors

It's the oldest design trick in the book: Mirrors will make your space feel larger, lighter, and airier. And a fun convex one like this adds a lot of personality without taking up a ton of space.

SHOP MIRRORS Mirror Plates, $16

12Make Every Piece Count

13Think About Scale

If your kitchen doesn't have an island and you don't have a living room that's separate from the kitchen, don't give up on making it functional. Opt for a tall wooden table that can provide some extra counter space for cooking and as a two-top dining table. Use this one in a kitchen by Corinne Mathern Studio as your blueprint.

BUY SMALL ISLANDS Counter Table, $125

14Keep It Neutral

Calm, even-toned rooms fool the eye into thinking they're more spacious than they are. Make sure to add a variety of textures to keep the space from falling flat.

SHOP PILLOWS Velvet Pillow, $6

15Convert a Closet

Designer David Kaihoi used some seriously smart storage solutions to make his New York City apartment work harderincluding creating this compact laundry "room" in his closet. That way, when he's not doing laundry, he can close the door on these eyesore appliances.

SHOP LAUNDRY MACHINES Washer and Dryer Unit, $1259

16Customize Storage

Bespoke built-ins, storage nooks, and furniture tailored to your exact needs can utilize every available sliver of space. When they're part of the walls, you don't lose nearly as much valuable square footage. And extra storage under a bench helps, too.

SHOP BENCHES Storage Bench, $449

17Create Zones

In interior designer Max Sinsteden's studio, he made his sleep zone feel separate from the rest of the room by hanging a super high curtain and then suspending a floating painting to break it off even more. "I hate seeing a bed from the front door, so I added a curtain to partition that space. When you close it, you honestly feel like you're in a Parisian hotel," he tells us. This means you can entertain, too, without feeling like everyone's hanging out in your bedroom. "A small space doesn't hamper me from inviting 50 people over."

SHOP CEILING TRACKS Ceiling Track, $90

18Use All Available Surface Space

Even a windowsill can provide extra storage space for decor, lighting, and other essentials when there's no room for an extra table.

SHOP SHELVES Floating Shelf, $20

19Get a Wall Desk

Think you have no room for an office? Think again. A mounted wall desk takes up way less roomand you can even mount shelves above it for even more storage space. Designer Tariq Dixon transformed an unused corner by installing a wall-mounted desk.

SHOP DESKS Floating Desk, $65

20Use Strategic Seating

Opt for extra seating that can fold up and be super compact so you can store it away while the guests aren't over. A stool like this one in a living room designed by Hecker Guthrie is perfect.

SHOP STOOLS Royal Design Folding Stool, $136

21Use Bigger (But Fewer) Furnishings

It may seem counterintuitive, but outfitting a small space with just a few large-scale pieces (rather than a mishmash of pint-size furniture) can actually make it feel grander. Resist the urge to push all of your furniture up against the walls. If you create space behind the furniture, it makes the room look wider than it is.

SHOP BED FRAMES Canopy Bed, $1,299

22Go Big in a Small Space

It's easy to overlook a room when it's super tiny, especially because there simply isn't enough useable space for dcor. But it's definitely possibleand well worth itto elevate and personalize these little rooms. Take this powder room in Ailana Michelle Ralph's home, for example. With a light blush pink wall color and a surrounding gallery of eclectic artwork, the small room packs a lot of punch.

SHOP FRAMES Gilt Frame, $39

23Think Vertical

Exploit the often under-utilized space between the tops of furniture and a room's ceiling with hanging or high-mounted elements. Take bookcases and cabinets all the way upit'll make the room feel higher.

SHOP CABINETS Kitchen Cabinets, $489

24Forgo Bulky Pieces

Though the under-the-sink storage can be great, larger vanities with a lot of drawers and cabinets can end up looking oversized and awkward in small spaces. In this bathroom designed by Studio DB, the dainty marble vanity has plenty of surface space and the extra towel tracks and hooks take care of the storage needs.

SHOP TOWEL BARS Towel Bar, $50

25Build a Partial Glass Wall

Tear down walls, enlarge windows, or swap solid doors for glass to open up views and connect adjacent spaces.

SHOP HARDWARE Glass Door Sliding Track, $200

26Incorporate Good Lighting

Good lighting will make or break any roombig or small. Make sure to especially install good lighting in smaller, cramped spaces like a bathroom with a tiny window, as shown in this gorgeous space.

SHOP LIGHTS Mount Ceiling Light, $23

27Edit Yourself

You don't have to display everything. After all, nothing makes a room feel smaller than clutter.

SHOP SHELVES White Shelf, $397

Ferrari Kitchens and Baths Explain the Commercial Services they Offer - Digital Journal

Lizzie and Dan Routman had no plans to leave their Bluffview home of 21 years. Besides being spacious and beautiful, with a sizable yard, the house had sentimental value, tooit was where the couple had raised their two daughters.

But a quick zip through Zillows latest listings a couple of years ago presented an intriguing alternative for the now empty nesters. Tucked away on a secluded street, on a bluff overlooking Turtle Creek, a contemporary stunner designed by influential architect Bud Oglesby caught the couples eye. You walk in, and theres all this natural light and lots of windows, Lizzie says of the 1988-built house. So its very welcoming, but its clean and contemporary.

Originally designed for a pair of art collectors, the 5,000-square-foot residence also had plenty of art walls, a feature that appealed to the Routmans as they, too, collect art.

Before the couple closed the deal on the house, however, they asked architect Russell Buchanan to take a look at it as well. As great as it was, the home hadnt been updated since the 80s, so they wanted to get a professional opinion. Buchanan confirmed what the Routmans had suspected: the house had exceptional bones, and with just a few fixes, it could soon be ideal for the downsizing couple.

To complete their dream design team, Lizzie and Dan enlisted interior designer Wendy Konradi, who had done some work on their previous home, and builder Bert Smith to work alongside Buchanan. Then they tasked the trio with, among other things, completely remodeling two main spaces: the kitchen and the primary suite.

The kitchen was a very small space for the scale of the home, yet there were very interesting details that Bud Oglesby had originally designed for the house, Konradi says, the best one being a full-height window that overlooks Turtle Creek.

Originally, a set of glass upper cabinets floated in front of the window, offering a clear view of the outdoors. The Routmans loved the concept but felt a little bit like they were in a fishbowl. Buchanans solution: trade the glass cabinets for white oak to create more practical storage and to keep the homeowners from feeling like they were on display. It was very much respecting the original architecture but making it work better for the new homeowners, Konradi says.

To maximize the kitchens footprint, Buchanan removed an existing fireplace and relocated a nearby laundry room to the second floor. Then, to finish the space, Konradi and project manager Ashley Hunt opted for stainless steel countertops for the Bulthaup cabinetry and cork floors that extended into the adjoining breakfast nook. Cork is so soft underfoot, Konradi says. And with tho- se stainless countertops, its such a nice contrast.

Like the kitchen, the primary bedroom and bathroom also had to be gutted, but unlike the cramped cookery, the two private spaces were bigger than they needed to be. The bathroom area was especially cavernous, so much so that the remodeled space now houses a utility room, an exercise room, dual closets, and a spa-like wet room that Konradi clad in an eye-catching terrazzo, including the walls, floor, and tub surround.

In the bedroom, the design team added a dividing wall between the sleeping area and sitting area, transforming what was once an oversize single space into two separate and intimate spaces. To up the coziness quotient even further, Konradi wrapped the entire bedroom in a soothing blue fabric. The room just cocoons you in this wool flannel wall upholstery that is so serene, she says.

For the rest of the house, Konradi focused on adding color and texture throughout, as well as integrating Lizzie and Dans various collections. They didnt want it to feel like they were in a museum, the designer says, but we were very conscientious that nothing competed with the artwork.

In addition to art, the couple has been collecting exquisite furnishings for many years. Theyve also inherited several outstanding pieces, including a pair of Ward Bennett Scissor chairs that Konradi refinished and reupholstered. We didnt buy everything brand new for this home. We reimagined a lot, Konradi says. So its created this wonderful layered effect, and it gives the home such soul.

To keep a room feeling fresh, Konradi looks to the past and present, incorporating pieces from various eras. I think its a testament to good design when you cant differentiate a space or piece of furniture that is 100 years old versus something contemporary thats being executed today, she says. In the Routman house, Konradis eye for combining items from different time periods is on full display in the breakfast nook (below), where a pair of chairs designed in 2010 share space with a coffee table from 1947all resting in a brand-new Bulthaup kitchen. The space isnt staid or stuck in any one era, she says. These pieces can have this fun coexistence. That happened a lot throughout the home. Thats the fungetting that magic in the mix and making these pieces work together.

Longstanding Rockridge restaurant Oliveto closed at the end of 2021, and reopened last week. Credit: Oliveto

Oliveto5655 College Ave. (in the Market Hall building), Oakland

Longtime patrons of Oliveto, the 35-year-old Oakland Italian spot that closed with great fanfare at the end of last year, got a surprising message in their inboxes in recent days.

OK, its not actually over, the email began. According to the message, the restaurants cafe operation quietly reopened last week, an unexpected coda for a restaurant that seemingly ended its run with a multi-month celebration. Before you get comfortable though, be warned: This post-credits scene is a limited-time-only reprieve, as a new owner for the business is likely in the works.

Were in this world of pivots now, co-owner Bob Klein told Nosh about the surprise reopening. Everything is true until tomorrow. And then you pivot.

Olivetos epilogue, which was first reported by the SF Chronicle, wasnt something Klein had planned on, he said. The restaurant was jam-packed during its final two months, after its closure was announced last November, Klein said, and we were proud because the food we were doing was good.

But those last months were painful, too, Klein said. Nobody could get through to us to make reservations, as we didnt have the staff to answer the phone.

The restaurant had promised a number of the special dinners they were known for, including an oceanic dinner of curated sustainable fish, and a truffle celebration. Those did all happen before the restaurants ostensible last day, but my staff begged me not to publicize them because the volume of phone calls the dinners typically prompt would have been unmanageable, Klein said.

Klein had planned on a grand exit on New Years Eve, but four days prior to our finale, I come down with [COVID] symptoms, Klein said. While his bout with COVID-19 was a minor one, he wasnt able to be in the crowded dining room for Olivetos last days, as diners and staff celebrated while he remained isolated at home. How about that for a sad story? Klein asked.

But still, the place had had a good run, so that was it. Or so he thought.

We hadnt been looking for a buyer, Klein said, but then we were contacted by a significant restaurateur. Now, Klein wont say who this prospective buyer is (Nosh has heard rumors, and tips are always welcome), but seemed clearly excited about the potential for this new, mysterious chef to come take over Olivetos dining room.

That also meant a change in plans; for the sale to move forward, Oliveto still needed to be in possession of the space. That means rent, insurance and other costs still need to be paid. So why not just open back up for a little bit, until the sale negotiations are complete?

Heres the ideal situation, Klein said. We would keep going, the deal would be made, plans would be drawn and permits would be filed. Remodeling would be done incrementally remember, this is a two-in-one restaurant with an upstairs operation and a downstairs cafe, so this idea isnt as wild as it seems so closures would be incremental. Then wed close and the new guy would open.

If all that works out, that would be pretty amazing. Does he think it will? If not, were ready to pivot again, Klein said.

Klein also makes clear that he sees this Oliveto addendum as a chance to explore something that had just gotten interesting. He said that as the business started winding down, the cafe food got really good. But hasnt it always been good? Yes, but they really started nailing the duck, as we have a fish dish you wouldnt believe. They really figured it out.

Thats why the revived Oliveto will feature a menu from its cafe, led by chef Juan Guevara. Peter Jackson, the chef who guided the upstairs dining room through its final months, remains on as a consultant but isnt involved in the day-to-day.

Guevara is just so steady, hes a really good chef, Klein said. He was a longtime cook at the cafe, and in fact, we were able to hang on to all our cooks, Klein said.

And all this will continue until the deal is done and Oliveto is well and truly ready to make way for its successor. When pressed, Klein would finally say this about the prospective buyer:

Whoever it is, is focusing on who we are and who our neighborhood is, and theyre planning a food style that is consistent with a really amazing, knowledgeable food customer.

Well, thats vague enough that it leaves room for plenty of worry, Bob. Look, part of being a beloved place for this long means you carry a lot of dust, Klein said. Who wants to have fun in a monument? Ive always focused on fresh ideas, so when somebody new comes in I think the world is moving, everybody is moving, and thats good.

As of publication time, Oliveto is open from 11:30 a.m. to 8:30 p.m. Monday through Saturday, for lunch and dinner. Dinner reservations must be made through OpenTable, and lunch is walk-in service only. The cafe lunch menu of sandwiches and salads is relatively unchanged, while the dinner menu has some alterations.

Robust sales growth is one of the most important characteristics of potential winners in the market. The companies that emphasize sales management have a competitive edge, as strong sales usually translate to improved profitability.

With regard to this, stocks like Beacon Roofing Supply Inc., United Rentals Inc., Valley National Bancorp, Crown Castle International Corp. and Berry Global Group, Inc. are worth investing in.

While assessing business growth, revenues are often more monitored than earnings. This is because investors want to make sure whether a business can generate more sales over time to cater to an expanding customer base.

Stable or declining sales growth indicates obstacles at the company. Stagnant companies may generate near-term profit but not enough growth to attract new investors. Without impressive revenue growth, bottom-line improvement may not be sustainable over a longer term.

Yet, sales growth alone doesnt indicate much about a companys future performance. Though it provides investors an insight into product demand and pricing power, a huge sales number is not necessarily translated into profits.

Hence, taking into consideration a companys cash position and its sales number can prove to be a more dependable investment strategy. Substantial cash in hand and a steady cash flow give a company more flexibility with respect to business decisions and potential investments. Also, an adequate cash position suggests that revenues are channeled in the right direction.
