Monique Mancini always want-ed to take a bite of the Big Apple. Now she’s added farm-

fresh veggies to her plate.

She and her husband, Stephen, live a few miles from Manhattan and own a hip, service-oriented farm-to-table restaurant in Armonk, N.Y., a small town in affl uent Westchester County. It’s a life that allows her to be a little bit country – and a little bit rock and roll.

One of the secrets to Monique’s success is her southern upbringing. She graduated from Farragut High School and UT, which she attended on a track scholarship. Her parents, Alice and Tim Berarducci, live in Farragut, and Monique maintains a strong connection to her roots.

“You don’t forget where you come from, no matter how many people you know,” she says. “The hospitality in the South is the best. Nothing is more genuine than that.”

She learned about the role of hospitality in the food business from Knoxville restaurateur Ran-dy Burleson, owner of Aubrey’s, Sunspot and Barley’s Tap Room. Monique worked at Edison Park steakhouse in Farragut while a student at UT. There, she learned about the importance of good ser-vice and a large wine cellar. After graduation, she took a job with E. & J. Gallo Winery in Florida.

After a year in the Sunshine State, Monique fulfi lled her dream of moving to New York City. She moved into a “Cracker Jack box apartment” and lugged wine around, selling to restaurants. The more people she met, the more opportunities arose.

In 2007, she tried to sell wine to Stephen Mancini, wine director at

Union Square Café. He didn’t buy any wine – but he was sold on Monique.

Union Square Café is owned by famed restaurateur Danny Meyer, who places an emphasis on hos-pitality and consistent excellence. His philosophies infl uenced Ste-phen, who wanted to open his own restaurant. Monique agreed to help, and they began looking for space in Manhattan.

High rental rates forced the couple to expand their search, and they chose Armonk, 35 miles north of Manhattan, as the location for Restaurant North, which opened in June of 2010. Eric Gabrynow-icz, who also worked for Meyer, is executive chef and a partner.

The food served at Restaurant North is fresh from farms that are less than 75 miles away. It would be eas-ier to call and order frozen food, like most restaurants do, Monique says.

“But it’s more of a pleasure to know your farmer.”

Relying on fresh produce means getting creative with the menu and working with whatever’s in season.

“There are no tomatoes on our menu in the wintertime,” she says.

Monique handles public rela-tions and marketing for the res-taurant, but her day job is serving as the New York state manager of Fetzer, a California winery that uses sustainable practices. When they’re not working, the Manci-nis enjoy drawing up concepts for new restaurants.

While she loves spending time in Knoxville, particularly when it’s on a boat, Monique has a new home now.

“I still want to be around New York to be in the mix. I’ve always wanted to feel that energy around me.”

By Wendy Smith


A ll of those hours you fellows have been spending at the gym haven’t gone unnoticed by the fashion in-

dustry.

In fact, M.S. McClellan’s Dan Kocks, the store’s menswear buyer and general man-ager, says a lot of suit makers have adjusted their demographics to target younger men entering the workforce who are working hard to stay in great physical condition.

Kocks says this group is being rewarded with clothing that lets them strut a bit and display that impressive physique in hand-some clothing designed just for them.

“These young men are fi t and they like to show off their great shape, so for fall and winter we’re getting in slimmer suits and shirts and pants and all the other things that go along with these new lines.

“It’s a cool look and we’re very excited about it,” Kocks says.

Kocks says one fashion trend a lot of young men are adopting is wearing a suit jacket over a pair of jeans on the weekend.

In the store’s women’s department, buyer Betsy Foster says fall and winter

clothing and accessories are just as colorful as were those of the summer months.

“We’re seeing bright jewel tones – reds, emerald greens, royal blues and bright pinks – set against a background of greys and blacks. These colors will be great to perk us up during the cold winter months.”

Foster says for women, the silhouette is best described as an inverted triangle – bigger at the shoulders and smaller through the hips.

Prints will be very important for wom-en in the coming months, as will fur, which will be found in scarves and neck pieces, used as trim on some items, and worn as vests and jackets. “There will be a lot of that coming in. These are fashion pieces as well as useful for warmth.”

Foster says belts this season are skinny, scarves and accessories are important for fi lling in a neckline instead of wearing a necklace, and outerwear will include large shawls and ponchos.

And still in fashion, those skinny little sleeveless dresses so popular this year will be even more stylish in winter fabrics.

Fit, trim and stylish

Discover the eleganceI f you haven’t yet dis-

covered Westwood An-tique & Design Market,

a delightful shop located at 5020 Whittaker Drive between Kingston Pike and Homberg in Bearden, you’re in for a rare treat.

And if you’re a regular of Scott Bishop’s inviting place, you already know you’ll see lots of fabulous new items every time you visit.

Collectors of American and European antiques, fi ne art, decorative ac-cessories, folk art, china, crystal, vintage sterling and exquisite furniture in many styles and a wide range of periods can’t get enough of this shop.

With almost 6,000 square feet of display space, Westwood always has a broad array of items

in stock. In addition, Bish-op is always happy to help fi nd the pieces you’re look-ing for if he doesn’t have them on hand at the time.

Bishop says he believes antiques “are classic re-cycling. They’re a great ‘green’ way to decorate.”

Bishop’s design skills are well-known, too. He enjoys helping his clients redecorate just one room or an entire house. He will even work with a client’s architect from the very be-ginning of design through completion of the home.

Bishop says he always wants his classic design “to look comfortable and lived in and inviting. They should always refl ect the people who live there. They are all about the de-sign, not the designer.”

He enjoys using antiques in his room designs, Bishop says, “because they already have a personality. They have patina and personality built up over time that you just aren’t going to fi nd in new furniture, even though it may be beautiful.”

Stop by Westwood An-tique & Design Market next time you want to purchase a gift for yourself or for someone else, deco-rate a room, a corner of a room or an entire house. Working with Scott Bishop is always a pleasure.

L ola B. is an upscale women’s design-er boutique located in the heart of Bearden in the Bearden Station shop-

ping center.

The boutique carries designer lines such as Tory Burch, Vince, Helmut Lang, Rebecca Minkoff, Milly, Alice and Trixie and Diane von Furstenberg.

Whether you’re searching for the perfect out-fi t for the big game or for your next wedding cel-ebration, the experienced staff at Lola B. will help you fi nd an amazing, one-of-a-kind ensemble.

This fall fashion season is going to be one of the best yet. The colored denim trend is here to stay, but it’s time to put your bright and pastel skinny jeans on the shelf for the season and rock some rich jewel tones like burgundy, plum, rust and charcoal.

Although bright denim is taking a season off, bright hues like chartreuse and pink are sticking around for the fall and looking incredible when paired with neutrals such as grey and black.

The debate over whether to wear black, navy or brown shoes has offi cially ended this season with Tory Burch’s latest collection available at Lola B.

T here’s lots of “new” at Twisted Scissors salon these days: new staff, new fall hair designs, a new

kind of hair color, a new way of color-ing and a new charity to sponsor.

Owners Elisabetta Proietto and Eric Patterson say there’s more than enough hap-pening to really keep things humming at the salon they started 5 years ago in Bearden.

The new stylists are Brandi Cate and Amy Noonan. Proietto says “they both specialize in cut and color and both are very talented.”

Cate is an instructor at the Paul Mitchell Academy in town and will be

traveling with that organiza-tion this fall to learn the new-est in wearable trends for the season. She’ll bring it all back to Twisted Scissors.

Noonan is an especially cre-ative colorist, who will be at-tending classes with Redken to keep up with that company’s newest trends.

There’s a great deal of excitement about the new Redken color line

called “chromatics.” It has no am-monia and thus, no odor. That’s a real breakthrough in the industry, Proietto

New looks

says. “This will be just great for clients with health issues and also for our staff who have been breathing all of those chemicals.”

The color trends into the fall feature ombre, which involves lightening your natural hair color underneath with a lighter shade or a red or copper shade. It’s a great look for any time of year, but especially for the fall and winter months when it can really brighten your overall look.

Twisted Scissors is sponsoring a fun-draiser titled “The Fashion Ball” on Oct. 20 at The Edge, 7211 Kingston Pike. All proceeds will go to the Hope Center, the HIV clinic at Ft. Sanders Regional Medi-cal Center that provides care, education and advocacy for HIV patients. Tickets are $10 online and $15 at the door.

Design opened for business in the Fall of 2010 with about 4,300 square feet of space. The business has been so successful that on March 30th of this year, they expanded to 10,000 square feet.

“We fi lled up that additional square footage as soon as it became available,” says David Hickey, who owns the store with his wife, Kristi. “We have

relied primarily on print adver-tising and word of mouth to let people know about us,” said David, “but we did participate in the Fall Home Design and Remodeling Show and received positive feedback from both vis-itors and other vendors.” They did so well, in fact, that despite this being their fi rst show, their booth won second place in the

Best Display Competition with over 200 participating vendors.

The store is packed full of high quality, like-new items. And high quality is the theme here. There isn’t any junk. Everything taken in on consignment must be in like-new condition.

The range of items is vast and includes furniture for every room, decorative items of every imaginable type, lamps and light fi xtures, and lots of art including signed and numbered prints from well-known artists, photography and original works, many by local artists.

The Hickeys came to the

consignment business from very different work experiences. He was a geologist; she was an offi ce manager. After a lot of research and much prayer, the couple de-cided to open their new business.

“We have been truly blessed in this business,” Said David and Kristi. “We are a local, Christian business and we try very hard to do the right thing by every customer.”

Stop by for a visit some-time soon. It’s a neat place to shop, and as one of their loyal customers and good friends says, “It’s the best place to fi nd what you didn’t know you were looking for.”

sometimes buy my other paintings on the spot.”

She says it is diffi cult “starting over,” but there are a lot of new opportunities.

“The sky is the limit,” she says. She is currently working on an exhibition for an upcoming contemporary art show. Her paintings are also displayed at Objects and Images Fine Arts Gallery in the Bronx.

It has been interesting seeing the changes in New York City from the 1980’s to now, she says, calling it “the new New York!”

She said the old New York in the 1980’s was rough and seedy with a lot of oldNew Yorkers selling hot dogs. It was noto-rious for chaos and you always had to beon guard. It was noisy, with horns honk-ing. The subways had hot cars, rarely air-conditioned, and people were packed likesardines in a can. It cost 35 cents to ride.

“New York is very different now,” Heather says. It has been cleaned up a lot,and is much more controlled. The wholedemographic has changed, with youngerprofessionals living in the city.

“It has a totally different character andvibe. The whole beat is different.”

In Manhattan, she said, nobody is honking at each other, so it is quieter. Almost everyone has earphones plugged in. “They’re completely tuned out.” There are new air-conditioned subway trains. The subway costs $2.25, and cards are used instead of tokens.

What’s interesting for Heather is that Dalton is now the age she was when she fi rst moved to New York.

“He goes exploring to places like the Metropolitan Museum of Art. It reminds me of when I was his age. It’s really neat,” she said.

Heather Whiteside, known for her original paintings of Knoxville scenes, has returned to New York

City, painting both Knoxville and New York cityscapes. Her Knoxville paintings are featured at Liz-Beth and Company.

Whiteside lived in New York City in the 1980s, where she received art training at The Art Stu-dents League of New York. She also attended The Pennsylvania Academy of Fine Arts. “But I think most of my experience has come from just hitting the streets, painting and selling art for a living,” she says.

She moved to Knox-ville in 2006, because she felt that it was

a good place to raise her son, Dalton. Both are fascinated with architecture, and Heather enjoys capturing the city’s per-sonality and character. She is passionate about painting, which she has done for more than 20 years.

In 2010, she was chosen as the artist for the Dogwood Arts Festival’s 50th anni-versary print. Her painting was “Dog Day Afternoon on the Square.”

Heather and Dalton moved back to New York City this July, because he was accepted in the prestigious Spritz School of Architecture, located at the City Col-lege of New York. Now he can pursue his dream of becoming an architect.

Heather has a studio in New York City, but she also enjoys painting on the streets where onlookers stop to chat with her. “I enjoy that,” she says, “plus they

Whether you are pursuing dance as a profession or a hobby, Studio Arts for

Dancers offers classes tuned to help you meet your goals.

Founded in 1990 by artistic director Lisa Hall McKee, Studio Arts for Dancers has infl uenced thousands of children over more than 20 years with McKee’s com-mitment to both artistry and tech-nical excellence in her students.

“Dance is for everybody,” McK-ee says. “It’s for young, old, big, small, coordinated and especially the uncoordinated. Our philoso-phy is to teach it right and moti-vate our students to love dance and the work that it entails. Every individual is different, and we en-courage our dancers to celebrate that, fi nd out what their body is capable of and achieve it without worry about where their peers are. Dance is an individual sport taught in a group environment.”

Studio Arts for Dancers offers classes in pre-ballet, ballet, pointe, repertoire, modern, Horton, jazz and tap. Classes are for pre-school age three through pre-profession-al and are branching into adult and beginning teen programs.

McKee is committed to each student at each level. Following a specifi c syllabus, she makes cer-tain that all students learn ballet anatomy, history and terminolo-gy. “It doesn’t matter to me that they take dance as recreation. I still want them to learn dance correctly, love it and appreciate it. It is something they will carry with them their whole life. It is

a discipline that is a life skill. I love it when students come back as adults, sometimes with their own children, and tell me how the work ethic and respect they learned at the studio has helped them in life.”

Studio Arts has a program this year for teenagers new to dance who can commit to only one class a week because of involvement in other sports or musical theatre programs at their schools. With mini-mal commitment, students can learn dance with their peers.

Studio Arts produces a high caliber of artistic and technical excellence in its young students. “While the majority of our stu-dents dance just because they love it, many have professional aspirations, and it is our job to ensure they are prepared.”

Many of McKee’s students have been accepted to prestigious summer dance programs, includ-ing the Joffrey Ballet, American Ballet Theatre, Lines, Jacobs Pil-low, The Rock, and others, as well as being accepted to presti-gious collegiate dance programs. Many have continued on to pro-fessional performance careers.

“What is great and unique about our program is that we have a highly qualifi ed staff which ensures correct, safe and creative teaching methods no matter the level or personal as-pirations of each student. We are dance educators.”

Studio Arts for Dancers per-forms annually at the Tennessee Theatre and is the home of GO! Contemporary Dance Company, a non-profi t contemporary ballet and aerial dance company.

GO! Contemporary Dance Works, a local non-profit contempo-rary dance company, will pres-

ent both new and revisited works at 7 p.m. Saturday, Oct. 13, at the Clarence Brown Theatre. GO! will premier five new works by local and international choreographers as well as revisiting works from past performances.

GO! is known for its innovative choreographic works and high caliber dancers, and for the ability to attract choreographers from across the globe to Knoxville.

Artistic director Lisa Hall McKee will present five works, premiering a highly intense and emotional piece ti-tled “Hungered,” inspired by the novel “Hunger Games.”

“For this piece I selected our appren-tice and junior company members, ages 11 to 15, to stay true to the sto-

ryline. It has been amazing to see 19 young dancers commit their hearts to this piece. It really affects them! From working with imaginary weapons to experiencing anxiety and the emotions of separation and desperation, these dancers are doing an excellent job por-traying the story.”

McKee will also premier “pulsE” an athletic contemporary ballet that ends with the dancers suspended in the air in harnesses.

“This piece is based on a human’s pulse, its various rhythms. It goes on and on, constantly changing, mixing all elements of ballet, contemporary and aerial into a constant. It is quite a ride,” said McKee.

Choreographic works by Denise Njuguna will be featured in the pro-gram, as well as works by Dylan Kend-

rick, Julie Cox, Jill Frere, Leah Pinder and United Kingdom guest artist Re-becca Evans.

Njuguna’s piece, called “Winnow,” is athletic with dramatic explosive move-ment to music by Jars of Clay. “The Louvre” is a visit to the famous French museum come to life with “The Think-er,” “The Scream” and “Mona Lisa.”

“Denise’s choreography is brilliant. It reaches out to our audience and grabs them. She brings out the maxi-mum in our dancers, pushing them to their limit,” said McKee.

GO! is not for the average dance goer. “No Nutcrackers here,” McK-ee said. “These are all original and thought-provoking works designed for our audience which is usually more risk taking when it comes to dance. We keep upping our caliber because our audience keeps upping its expectations. It is a great and motivating relationship.”

GO! Contemporary Dance Works is committed to serving the Knoxville Community and has performed with the KSO in its educational outreach programs, as guest artists for the Knoxville Symphony Orchestra’s “Clayton Holi-day Concerts,” the Knox-ville Opera Company’s Rossini Festival, Roane State Community College and many other local ven-ues.

GO! is also pleased to of-fer a limited number of seats available as a Penny Perfor-mance through The Arts and Culture Alliance. To purchase tickets for GO! call 539-2475.


chain, although Branstetter says she may open ad-ditional studios as demand increases.

Her studio is already gaining a name for itself among top players in the athletics fi eld. Just last February she was asked to be an ambassador for lululemon, a Canadian athletic apparel company. That’s quite an honor.

O pen since last October, Neighbor-hood Barre in Northshore Town Center has quickly become the

“go to” place for both men and women who want to tone their bodies while im-proving energy and metabolic levels.

Additional benefi ts are improvements in posture, self-confi dence and a general sense of well-being.

The studio is the brainchild of owner Katy Branstetter and follows certain

techniques of The Lotte Berk Method and Phy-sique 57, classical barre studios in New York.

Classes at Neighbor-hood Barre combine the fundamentals of dance, yoga and Pilates in iso-metric movements de-signed to carve and re-shape the muscles of

arms, legs, the seat and abs. Results can be seen in about 10 weeks, although the

time is shorter for some.

Branstetter says Neighborhood Barre’s mission is to offer all clients, whether beginner or advanced, a quick and effec-tive way to transform their bodies. “The studio evokes a sense of comfort and encouragement in our clients’ quest for improvement, free of judgment and com-parison,” she says.

The classes are suitable for a wide range of ages and can be used as either a primary fi tness program or as a comple-ment to an existing program.

Body positioning is taught in each class to maximize the benefi t of the ex-ercises, as well as to ensure safety of the lower back. All movements are low im-pact, easy on the joints, and help to im-prove posture and balance.

Classes are approximately 55 minutes in length and can be purchased/sched-uled online at www.neighborhoodbarre.com or in person at the studio.

W hen you’re shop-ping for libations, manager Jeff Gettel-

fi nger and the staff at Tur-key Creek Wine and Spir-its are proud to stock the fi nest offerings in the area.

Gettelfi nger can share with you some fascinating insights into the history of the wine and spirits indus-try. There isn’t much he doesn’t know on the sub-ject, including his industry’s very real connection linking New York to Knoxville.

During Prohibition in this country, it was at the ports in New York (and New Jersey) that ships docked to furtively un-load their cargos of Ital-ian and French wines and

Scotch and Irish whiskies.

Gettelfi nger says that’s why alcohol is still sold by the liter. “It’s one of the few businesses still run on the metric system.”

He adds that the spirits business in Knoxville is like that of New York in that “the stores are 100 percent locally owned and operated, so the selection of wine and spirits isn’t dictated to us by someone living hundreds of miles away. Local buyers keep the quality high. If some-thing isn’t up to their stan-dards, they don’t buy it.”

Open since 2003 at 10903 Turkey Creek Drive, Gettelfi nger says his store “caters to those who

are looking for really nice wines and spirits imported from Europe. We are al-ways looking for special bargains so we can offer something that is excep-tionally well made for a low price.”

If you would like to be added to the store’s e-mail list, you will be notifi ed of store specials, wine dinners and wine tastings. Go to www.knoxvillewine.comor call the store at 777-9463.

Gettelfi nger says that the list is statistically signifi cant and includes even out-of-state customers, but he says he’s keeping the exact number a trade secret.

T he song that plays in the background on the home page of the store’s website pretty much tells the story of Snooty of Turkey Creek, an

anti-aging boutique.

The song is “You Sexy Thing” by the British pop group Hot Chocolate, but for decades we have all known the tune as “I believe in miracles.”

And that’s exactly what clients of Snooty’s say happens in the chic boutique in Turkey Creek: mir-acles.

There are large miracles and small ones, but all clients receive the same great customer service in beautiful surroundings that feature an elegant sil-ver and white décor that owner Juliet Massey de-scribes as “soothing, restful, clean, glitzy and up-scale.”

But that’s only the beginning.
