No matter what your outlook on life is, we can only advise that you make the most of your days off. And we want to help by giving you some options to do so. That’s why this issue outlines the city’s best spas, the most indulgent and boozy brunches, and the most relaxing yoga studios. We have also done our fair share of traveling this summer: Tom Arnstein takes you from Azerbaijan to Georgia and Armenia in the Caucasus, while Tracy Wang writes about her time in one of Greece’s most photogenic islands: Corfu. Perhaps you can take some inspiration from these trips for your holiday planning, with the October holidays around the corner. For those of you looking for something to keep you busy a little closer to home, Kyle Mullin looks at urban gardening opportunities in Beijing, and how to keep your greens alive as the mercury starts to plummet. If you’re new to our city, or even if you aren’t, Jeremiah Jenne explains the history behind Beijing’s urban planning, and looks closer at some proposals for the future municipal governance and the mysterious concept of Jing-Jin-Ji. We hope you enjoy the September/October issue of the Beijinger, and that, if anything, we can help you make the most of your valuable days off.

    Divina Cucina's SWEETS FROM ITALY Judy Witts Francini divinacucina.com divina cucina about me I began my culinary career as a pastry chef at the Stanford Court Hotel in San Francisco. To me, dessert being the last thing you eat at dinner, has to be fabulous or the meal is ruined. I have chosen some of my favorite and simple recipes to end a meal. With Italian recipes, ingredients may vary from where you live, so I always suggest making the recipe once before you serve it for a party. I used grams on some of the recipes where I think it matters. Get a scale! It is worth it for pastry. We use "00" flour which is now available in the USA. Ground almond flour is also more easily available. The ricciarelli are a classic cookie from Siena. The Brutti ma Buoni, vary from town to town. I love the ones made in Prato using walnuts, feel free to use them. Panforte is another dessert from Siena, instead of the richer version with candied fruits, i prefer the simple fig and walnut version. This is perfect served in thin slices with cheese. Salami Dolce is a almost lost recipe, rarely found anymore, except in someone's home. Every Italian mamma has her version of Torta di Mele, this is my version, using tricks from several mamma's i have met. The final dessert is a special chocolate cake from the Island of Capri off the coast of Naples and is also Gluten-free, as are the Ricciarelli and the Fig and Walnut Panforte.
