'I tried Breakfast at Tiffany's just like film but noticed issue'
The 1960s classic film Breakfast at Tiffany's, starring Audrey Hepburn, inspired one food lover to visit the flagship Tiffany store in New York City to find out what eating there is actually like Breakfast at Tiffany's, the iconic 1960s movie with Audrey Hepburn as stylish Upper East Sider Holly Golightly, has cemented its place in pop culture. The film follows Holly's story as she meets Paul, a budding writer who becomes a neighbour in her apartment block. One of the film's most memorable scenes sees Holly nibbling on a croissant and sipping coffee outside the Tiffany & Co store on Fifth Avenue, New York City, peering dreamily at its window display. Tiffany & Co, known for its luxury jewellery with its signature robin's egg blue packaging, is recognised worldwide both from the film and the wish lists of accessory lovers alike. Ertan Bek, a New York-based food enthusiast, took to TikTok to let fans of the movie know that you can actually enjoy breakfast at Tiffany's, sharing his solo dining experience. The Blue Box Café by Daniel Boulud invites customers to indulge in breakfast, lunch, or afternoon tea in a venue that pays homage to the brand's storied past, nestled inside The Landmark at the company's flagship location. Ertan kicked off his TikTok video, saying: "Let's see how expensive a solo breakfast at Tiffany's is in New York City. Breakfast at Tiffany's, I'm about to live every girl's dream right now." He then entered Blue Box Café, confirmed his booking with the host, and was escorted to his seat. The self-proclaimed 'introvert lunching around' took his place and commented: "Look at this view, and the inside is gorgeous, but it reminds me of Louis Vuitton's cafe." Once comfortably seated, he was given hand sanitiser on a cloth in a small bowl by a server before a waitress handed him the menu. Ertan found himself torn between ordering the more traditional Breakfast at Tiffany's or choosing something from the a la carte menu, so he got some guidance from the waitress. He confessed he was drawn to "the most American thing" available, "which is a cheeseburger," but the server immediately shot back with a firm "no" and steered him towards the breakfast option instead. Following her recommendation, Ertan used the wipe to cleanse his hands before being served the $68 (£50.14) breakfast, featuring eggs topped with caviar, a croissant and yoghurt parfait, amongst other delicacies. The solo diner described the presentation as "gorgeous" and awarded it a perfect 10 out of 10 score. He began by pouring himself a cup of tea costing $8 (£5.90) before diving into his morning feast. Beginning with the caviar nestled in an egg shell, he shared that it was "so good" before moving on to the buttery, plain croissant. Ertan finished off the rest of his breakfast away from the camera and told the waitress "everything is good." However, there was one issue - he suspected what he had eaten wouldn't fill him up, so he ordered the cheeseburger as well. His initial reaction to the $32 (£23.59) burger, served with chips, was that it appeared "amazing" and was "beautifully stacked." The foodie noted it "smells really good" before taking his first bite. He praised it as "perfect medium rare" and went so far as to proclaim it "definitely one of the best burgers in New York." He rated the experience a solid eight out of 10 and assured the waitress that everything was "perfect." Ertan's final bill came to $126 (£92.90), and with a $30 (£22.12) tip on top, his total spend was $156 (£115.01). Wrapping up, he advised: "Gentlemen, definitely take your girl out here, it's definitely worth it. Amazing service, amazing food." The TikTok video has sparked a flurry of more than 1,300 comments, with many users admitting their surprise at discovering you can actually enjoy breakfast at Tiffany's. One user exclaimed: "OMG I thought Breakfast at Tiffany's was an abstract term meaning let's party all night and go buy diamonds in the morning my whole life." Another confessed: "I thought breakfast at Tiffany's was standing outside the store peeking in the window while eating a croissant with a cappuccino." A third chimed in: "I am the only one who didn't realise that you can actually have breakfast at Tiffany's? I just thought it was a film, and then a song."

Tiffany's Show Pattaya marks 50 years with new production
Thailand's world-renowned Tiffany's Show Pattaya was celebrating its 50th anniversary and unveiled an entirely new performance,'Crystalise a Dream,' for the first time in its history, promising a world-class spectacle and a new dimension of entertainment. The first production revamp was created along with a new brand vision, 'Open Beyond the Eye,' encouraging people to embrace diversity that is beyond appearances. The new show concept highlights not only the performance, but also life and dreams, according to Alisa Phanthusak Kunpalin, Managing Director of Tiffany's Show Pattaya. She said millions of people who had experienced Tiffany's might have a certain image of the grand show without ever seeing what happens behind the scenes. 'It's not just the show that we have been doing. It's a stage of life where we try to make everyone's dreams come true,' Ms Alisa said. As dreams vary in shades like a crystal, Ms Alisa said she believes that the brand-new show Crystalise a Dream will reflect everyone's life experience and allow them to shine as whoever they want to be. Ms Alisa also honoured her father, Sutham Panthusak, the late founder of Tiffany's Show in 1974. Though having been challenged with struggles in fighting for acceptance, he had stood firm on his vision of thinking differently, said his successor. The stage, which also hosts Miss Tiffany's Universe and Miss International Queen, has received various guaranteed awards in Thailand and internationally, welcoming over 400,000 visitors in 2024. It is now ready to step on a new chapter. True change for present 'This is the first time we have changed the show 100%,' said Sakdipat Sangsuriyong, Show Production Director, who has been working at Tiffany's since 2003. In the past, the performance was slightly changed by replacing one act at a time–removing old ones and inserting new ones, Mr Sakdipat explained. He said the complete overhaul was the most challenging part in this transformation. The planning process took almost two years while still running the old programme at the same time. 'Normally, it should take at least six months, but we actually closed the house to build a new set and rehearse the new show for only three weeks,' the show director said. On the last day of the old set, staff and cast had to say goodbye to the show they have been performing daily for decades. Seeing costumes packed away and the set dismantled left them in tears. However, it was not the end but a new journey, he said. While retaining Tiffany's identity of transgender, Mr Sakdipat believed this was not an era of demanding for acceptance. Without mentioning a single word about gender, the performers would show and dazzle the world with their potential, and 'once tourists buy tickets and enjoy the show, it means acceptance,' he highlighted. For the 2025's edition, the team was also joined by Araya Indra, or Art Araya, best-known as a Thai drag performer, designer and stylist, who had the goal of making Tiffany's the show of the present. Positioned as Creative Consultant, she targeted the wider audience groups, especially young generations, who are expected to share the news. 'We wanted to bring back the exciting atmosphere like when the old show had done to the old generation,' Art Araya said. 'So, the production must go with the present.' The performance is beyond lipsync and dance, but the cast members were also trained to show with modern tools and technology. 'I did not intervene in their legacy, just shaking things up to make them more well-rounded,' Art Araya said, after joining the team for a year and a half. Backstage on the press preview day, the dressing room was filled up with much energy from show girls of all generations. 'I'm excited as the first day I was a performer here,' said Suphap Saengkhamchoo, known as Mae Ood, the first Tiffany's show girl who has been with the house for 50 years and now as Show Consultant. 'The feeling is also mixed with fears if the audience would get the new format,' Mae Ood said, hoping people would open their minds and be ready for this new transformation. Another veteran show girl with 24-year experience, Pop Tiffany's, promises the audience a new experience they would get from Crystalise a Dream. 'What challenged us was the depth of the show we have to portray. It's no longer just the appearance so I want people to see that potential,' she emphasised. 'This is my dream stage, where I can express myself and show my abilities,' said 23-year-old show girl, Cait Tiffany's, the youngest there. The show Crystalise a Dream runs 75 minutes, crafted through nine acts–Pattaya, To Dream, Butterfly Ball, Diverse-City, Fashionista, The Queens and Crystalise– with all new costumes designed by international teams and new original songs. The performance, welcoming audiences of all ages, are daily, with three rounds per day–6pm, 7.30pm and 9.30pm. Tickets can be booked at

And Just Like That recap: Yikes. It's time for Aidan to go
At least Carrie calls it 'so male' and 'medieval' when we learn that, in Aidan's version of the terms of their 'let's not see each other for five years but still be together' agreement, Carrie would abstain from sex with anyone but him. She can't comprehend 'why we haven't had this discussion until now'. Girl! Same! It's been months! A glimpse of our girl emerges in this scene, and in the next, when she keeps her bra on during sex. That's our Carrie. Seema says goodbye to her driver and finds Miranda a great apartment. Before her now-official-girlfriend Joy meets Brady, she says she doesn't like kids. It takes five seconds of Brady being sweet to her dogs for that to change. A whisper of conflict, dissolved in two seconds: the And Just Like That story. Moving right along. While heading to the cancer centre to see Harry, Charlotte runs into Bitsy von Muffling, living proof that women can be fab and funny over 50 and that the writers don't have total amnesia about the original series. She's just as wacky and thirsty to climb the social ladder as ever. Honestly, I'd love an Ab Fab -style spin-off following her demanding that Tiffany's buys her breakfast – and lunch and dinner – for all she spends there. I don't have time to focus on the reveal that Carrie's getting invited to influencer events because Charlotte is really struggling with Harry's diagnosis and having to keep it a secret. It's not the only tragedy in this episode: while working in the edit suite with Marion, LTW learns her father, Lawrence, had a stroke. No one could reach her while she was at work, and he's gone. Nicole Ari Parker is an incredible actor, and it's lovely to watch her at full strength, especially as she goes toe-to-toe with Jenifer Lewis as Lucille Highwater, 'failed actress turned general manager of my father's theatre'. On the day of the funeral, LTW's mother-in-law, a lifelong antagonist, comes through by reassuring her that her father's spirit didn't want Lisa to see him in his final moments, gives her a precious handkerchief, and engages in a diva-off, calling Lucille 'Coretta Scott-King styled by Liberace'. LTW leans on Herbert to make it through the eulogy – which must be her second, considering in season one of AJLT, in the wake of Big's death, Lisa told Charlotte she'd lost her dad the previous year. By season two, he showed up at a party, played by Billy Dee Williams. Now his funeral is a major plot point of a season three episode. It's not fun to nitpick, but if AJLT can't even keep straight the details of who is alive, how can we trust them with the little stuff? The episode ends with Charlotte's emotional dam wall bursting, and finally sharing Harry's diagnosis with Carrie, soundtracked by Letting Go by Melbourne's own Angie McMahon. I'm so grateful for this moment, grounded in the friendship between these women. We needed it.

Etude Dear Darling Water Tint because did you know you can get a lip stain *and* rosy blush from just one product?

A renter-friendly roll of 10M wood grain tape, aka an affordable peel-and-stick transformation for your mirrors. It looks like sleek, modern wood, but it's actually waterproof PVC that can even handle steamy showers. It'll instantly upgrade your room's aesthetic without breaking the bank — and we *love* that. A self-tanner to help you get a sun-kissed glow that looks so good, people will think your tan came STRAIGHT from Aruba — even though it came from this mousse. It has *no* horrible scent (aka you won't smell like a wet dog), and it takes just one hour to develop an even (!!) tan. A TikTok-famous lip plumper set for straight-up lip alchemy — the ginger gloss amps up the volume of your pout with a spicy tingle (that isn't overwhelming, btw) for a fuller look during the day, while the minty overnight mask keeps your lips hydrated by morning. Reviewers say the plumper "delivers on its promise." A fruit and veggie wash so good, it'll make you question why you ever thought rinsing with water alone was enough. It helps strip away *all* the gunk — we're talking wax, agricultural chemicals, soil, and invisible germs from everyone's grabby hands at the grocery store. Just spray, rinse, and boom: your produce is clean and ready for snacking (or TikTok-worthy meal prep). A hair-lightening spray that gradually brightens your hair up to two shades — all you have to do is spritz it on, add heat (your blow dryer or flat iron), and watch your strands get that sun-kissed glow like you just got back from a beach vacay. It's made with citrus and chamomile, doesn't have that harsh bleach smell, and works on both natural and color-treated blondes.
