VARIOUS LOCATIONS— It's a good day to head to a Haagen-Dazs. The ice cream chain is offering its own take on free cone day from 4-8 p.m. today. [EaterWire]

FAIRFAX— Customers at the Whole Foods "sports bar" demand to inspect the restaurant's buns before eating. Don't worry — they might blog about it. [DR]

THE QUOTABLE BOURDAIN— The Washington Post covers Anthony Bourdain's "Guts & Glory" tour, which was in town last night. The article rounds up some of the night's quotes, including this shot at Paula Deen: ""She has a mattress line, I hope they're reinforced mattresses. I assume so." [WaPo]
