The Green Room: Newman's New Restaurant
Posted by Joshua W. Jackson on July 7, 2006 - 7:00am.

Sometimes organic's a pretty cool hand. Eco-food hero Paul Newman is teaming up with LIME's own Michel Nischan to open a brand new restaurant featuring organic and locally grown food. The restaurant is called the Dressing Room, despite numerous requests that it be named "Butch and the LIME Kid's" or "The Sting (of Hunger)." [Insert your own organic Cat on a Hot Tin Roof joke here—we're not touching it.]

Having a hard time keeping up with healthy eating trends? You're not alone.There's the macrobiotic diet, the Miami Beach diet, the Raw Food diet, the Atkin's diet, and now the purple diet. No joke. Mariah Carey is only eating purple foods. Apparently, the diva feels that avoiding foods of all other colors is the only surefire way to prevent wrinkles. Doctors, on the other hand, emphasis that an all-purple diet may cause insanity.

Superman does Rope Yoga. That's right. Rope Yoga. Apparently the physical demands of Bikram, Kundalini, Ashtanga, and Bhakti just aren't rigorous enough for the man of steel. New superstar Brendan Routh recently appeared in an infomercial selling a yoga exercise machine. It's yet to be determined whether Routh is actually a devoted yogi or he's just nervous about the future of his career after he couldn't even get the part of wax version of himself.

"If chance will have me king"...I'll shun my limo for a bicycle? Liev Schreiber, Central Park's Macbeth, reportedly rides a bike to and from the park to play the evil Scottish king. Good for him! Maybe old Macbeth isn't such a bad guy... After all, Schreiber's version is obviously aware of the planetary needs of tomorrow, tomorrow, tomorrow.

Rapper Lil' Kim was recently released from prison, and when asked about her future plans she said she intends to meditate, revealing a slightly LIME side. Of course, many are quick to point out that Lil' Kim no longer has a "slightly" anything side. Lil' Kim did add, "I'll be eating French fries. I know I don't need to, but..." prompting fans to wonder if the star's name would soon become more ironic than intended.

Cat on a Hot Tin Roof is considered a fully organic food. Delicious with some mint jelly.

I think perhaps the unmentionable would have to do with Newman's character, Brick--the sexually confused jock.

 Brick House or Brick Oven being the first two that come to mind. . . .
