A Plea For Pleasure

We loved getting your cultural recommendations in May and it's arguably the best newsletter we put out this year. So we are yet again soliciting suggestions for a future Loose Land newsletter this time on the theme of ~ p l e a s u r e ~

What's something you do in this city purely for the joy of it? It could be a restaurant where you linger, a specific dish you dream about, a ritual you've carved out for yourself, or a place you return to again and again.

We're looking for recommendations with a bit of texture—tell us not just what it is, but why it brings you pleasure. What makes it feel indulgent, restorative, or delicious? What's the sensory detail or personal story that makes it yours?

Please share your recommendations here by Friday Dec 19th. We'll feature the most evocative submissions in a future newsletter.
