From the Editor’s Desk
This is how I like to think about The
Cone - a great conversation you have
with friends after sharing a delicious
meal. Ideas are exchanged, some things
are discovered, thoughts are revealed
and your senses are engaged. You’ll no
doubt laugh a little, learn a little and
hopefully walk away energized all the
while looking forward to the next
gathering and the next great
conversation that will surely follow.
Using this approach, with each
issue I try to curate a varied and
interesting conversation for your
enjoyment. Reaching out to contributors
in other parts of the world makes our
great conversation truly a global feast.
Adding these voices to our regular
contributors creates a wonderful mix of
the new and the familiar. Each issue we
invite you in to have a coffee, perhaps
a cocktail, sit back and become a part
of our seasonal exchange.
Autumn has always been my favorite
season so I am very excited about the
conversations we will have in this
issue. Our resident Lazy Nomad in Paris
shares thoughts on Love & Coffee, we
have a gorgeous photo essay that will
transport you to New England, we’ll
discover places to eat south of the
border, as well as get a glimpse of life
in Shanghai. All this and more await you
on the following pages. Enjoy!
