Did yesterday’s Outlook outage derail your workday, or was it the best thing to happen to you all week? Our condolences to anyone who actually had shit to do. Now that inboxes are back in business, I wanted to send an email worth opening and figured free stuff would do the trick. Enter to win tickets for Bleu next week.

CATCHING UP WITH CHEF MING TSAI

Cooking for 30 Michelin-starred chefs sounds like a nightmare. For Ming Tsai, it's just another day. The James Beard Award-winning chef and TV personality has been a fixture in Boston's food scene for decades. He's also raised millions for charity, making an impact well beyond the kitchen. We caught up with the local legend to talk about success, giving back and the Boston dishes you absolutely have to try.

THIS WEEKEND

LOCALS ONLY

• Style Exchange is popping up in Fort Point this weekend and given the rent over there, we have high expectations. Shop 40+ racks of secondhand finds.

• Tomorrow is National Pickle Day and Southie understood the assignment. Swing by Lincoln and Castle Island Brewing for menu specials, music, giveaways and more.

• Open search on Do617 and the filters are waiting: date, distance, category and genre. One search pulls events, artists, venues and guides, so GTFO is just three taps away.
