The Mercedes Benz (MB) Roadside Assistance program, available to MB owners no matter the vehicle's age or warranty status, is worthy of praise not just because of the service provided when a driver is stranded, but because of the follow-up to every call. It is MB's policy to call the owner of the vehicle a day or two after a call for help has been placed and ask for feedback on both how the call for assistance was handled by MB, as well as to the level of satisfaction with the service provided. Excellent companies truly care about their customers' opinions.

Palm Beach Grill
Palm Beach Grill, in Palm Beach, Florida, part of Hillstone Restaurant Group which owns Houston's restaurants across the USA, serves great dishes with stellar service.The staff is well trained, to the point that it is possible that Rebecca at the bar will greet you by name, even if you have not visited in months. Palm Beach Grill is elegantly unpretentious. Here you will run into friends from The Hamptons, as well as the island's locals, all raving about the great food and atmosphere. Quite possibly the best dining spot on Palm Beach island.

Château d'Yquem
Of all the French sauternes, Chateau d'Yquem is unquestionably the best of the sweet dessert wines. Produced from white grapes consumed of most of their liquid by the fungus butrytis cinerea, or "Noble Rot," this wine is syrupy bliss. The harvesting of grapes consumed by the Noble Rot is difficult. Juices flow like molasses from the grapes when squeezed, but all the hard work of the vinter are well worth the effort when a bottle is opened at the end of a fine meal.
Molton Brown
Long before "green" was fashionable, Molton Brown, a cosmetics line founded in London in 1973, was producing a line of hair washes that relied on natural ingredients to do the job. Keep in mind that when Molton Brown first started producing their products, all the rage was big hair propped-up with thick coats of hair spray--that not only gummed-up the hair, but messed up the atmosphere.Today, Molton Brown manufactures hand washes, candelas and home products, body products for men and women and a complete hair line based on the same holistic approach. When manufacturers care as much about nature as to profits, they deserve laurels.
Canon EOS 5D Mark II
Only four years ago, if you wanted a 16 mega pixel digital SLR (Single Lens Reflex) camera, it would set you back more than US $17K. The new Canon EOS 5D Mark II is a professional SLR that is compact and delivers more pixels (21.1 mega pixels) and quality images than pro cameras of two years ago.Why we like it: 1. quality images, 2.weather sealed, 3. wide assortment of quality Canon lenses available. At a price of US $2,600, this body is the best all around SLR to carry in your bag if you are either pro or amateur.
