In this episode of Caviar & Candy, Paula Conway and Leslie Copeland settle into the LandShark Bar & Grill at the Margaritaville Resort Times Square—New York’s most surprising tropical escape. Over perfectly blended margaritas and seafood steam pots, they dish on everything from the rooftop pool (with front-row views of the Times Square Ball!) to the hotel’s sleek, high-tech rooms and island-inspired design.

Expect rave reviews, contagious laughter, and just the right amount of vacation energy—because luxury, as Paula reminds us, isn’t a price point, it’s a lifestyle.

Paula goes inside the luxury gelato brand Oggi Gelato, interviewing Fairfield, CT owner Maurizio Ricci on location over a delicious Affogato to raise money for animals who need adoption.  Oggi Gelato slow-churns small batches in-house, leaning on local milk and seasonal fruit whenever possible, and importing essentials—like pistachios from Italy—for depth you can taste. The result: dense, silky gelato with clean ingredients and bright, honest flavor. 

It was Rainbow Bridge Rememberance Day, and PAWS (Pet Animal Welfare Society) brought some adorable dogs up for adoption.  Paula also interviews PAWS executive director Kerry Dobson.  PAWS is Norwalk’s nonprofit animal rescue and adoption center. They provide medical care, spay/neuter, and foster-to-adopt support to place cats and dogs in loving homes.

In this special Candy Bowl episode, I take you inside the luxurious Salamander Hotel in Washington, D.C., a waterfront jewel steps from The Wharf. From the elegant Sangria Tea to an unforgettable dinner and a suite with sweeping views, it was the perfect stage to reconnect with my longtime friend Zell, whom I met decades ago at The Shakespeare Theatre. Over Kilwin’s chocolates, we reminisce about theatre and his latest production, The Play Within a Play. I also sit down with his fiancé, Mark Wasson, who shares his inspiring journey of transformation and his new coaching practice dedicated to helping recovering addicts.

The Candy Bowl swirls together luxury travel, theatre, sweet treats and stories of resilience — all set against the backdrop of D.C.’s most elegant hotel.
