We love guacamole and chips as much as the next dude—it’s straightforward, easy-to-make, and always delicious. That doesn’t mean, however, that the classic recipe can’t be improved upon. Whether it’s for your next big tailgate or night in with the guys, try whipping together this creative take on traditional guac with this recipe from chef Michael Ferraro. You’ll keep the same base (avocado, red onion, lime, cilantro, etc.) and toss in a few flavor-packed additions like charred corn and roasted poblanos to create the ultimate game-day side dish....

This recipe balances sweet plantains, which are cooked to crispy perfection, with rich, tangy black beans (cooked using lime juice and Mexican crema), and a refreshing pico de gallo to create the ultimate combination of sweet, salty, and savory flavors.

Chances are, you’re underestimating tofu. No, it doesn’t taste all that grand haphazardly thrown, sans seasoning, into your lunch salad or on a bed of quinoa. Yes, it’s inherently bland. But that’s why it’s perfect on the grill: Acting as a blank canvas, tofu soaks up all that charred, smoky flavor; and, with the help of an accoutrement or two—say, pickled onions or a shoyu glaze—really shines.

In 1935, the Gottfried Krueger Brewery made drinking history by selling the first-ever canned beer, choosing Richmond, Virginia, as its test market. But the innovating spirit of the city’s brew scene didn’t settle, leaving the town far behind in the race for craft dominance. That’s largely because prohibition-era legislation forbid breweries to sell their product on-site unless they had an attached restaurant— an economic hurdle for smaller brewers. The tide shifted with the passage of State Bill 604 in 2012....

Before the hurricane, there were waves. Paddlers capitalized on the front-running forces of Hurricane Irma, which first arrived in the form of finely groomed peaks atop tropical reef for surfers on America’s Atlantic coast to enjoy. Now, the very coastline fringing the reef in the unknown paradise pictured here is likely to be devastated. There’s not a lot of good to come from natural disasters, but safe to savor the special moments of the calm before the storm....

Chefs are just like the rest of us. Sure, they’re more culinarily inclined—but when they’re off the clock, they too have a hankering for a fast-food fix; long for a frosty cocktail or beer; and sure as hell don’t want to wait in line at a trendy, white-tablecloth restaurant. Of course their schedules are a far cry from the typical 9-to-5. They might be leaving work at midnight after a 12-hour shift, when most food joints have closed up shop....

There’s no stopping Will Ferrell—especially when he’s channeling his inner Ron Burgundy, his iconic character from the comedy classic Anchorman. On Tuesday night at the 2018 Australian Open, the comedian hijacked a post-match interview with tennis legend Roger Federer, who had just scored a 6-3, 6-4, 6-3 win over Aljaz Bedene. The results? Bizarre, hilarious, and just a touch uncomfortable (for Federer, at least). “In the immortal words of Ron Burgundy,” Ferrell said, “it’s great to be here with two tennis legends—Roger Federer and John McIntosh,” intentionally flubbing the last name of American tennis icon John McEnroe (who was also on-court)....

When you sit down in the theater for a Transformers movie, you’re expecting a few things: Stunning visuals, state-of-the-art CGI, near-impossible-looking “how did they do that?” action sequences, and, of course, huge robots beating the crap out of each other. Director Michael Bay and star Mark Wahlberg, the 2017 July/August Men’s Fitness cover man, absolutely deliver on all those expectations for Transformers: The Last Knight. And although some audiences might expect the action sequences to be a bit old at this point—The Last Knight is the fifth film in the Transformers series—Bay finds new ways to choreograph the action....

“More than 85 percent of mammalian species are polyphasic sleepers, meaning that they sleep for short periods throughout the day,” according to the National Sleep Foundation. We’re the odd mammals out. For the most part, our days are divided into two distinct periods, one for sleep and one for wakefulness, and still 40 percent of us get less than the recommended seven hours of sleep each night, according to a 2013 Gallup poll....

The Breton stripe shirt, that so very French tee inexorably linked to sailors and artists like Picasso, has been around for more than 150 years, yet remains a timeless classic. While the traditional design features blue and white stripes, there have been a variety of colorways that have come down the pike over the years. The newest iteration that we love is actually a British take on this French classic from the online clothing retailer Boden....
