It’s 7:30 Tuesday evening, and I’ve just finished what is easily…hands down…without question, the best sandwich I’ve ever had in my life. Surprisingly enough it contained no traces of bacon or rendered duck fat, no fancy-schmancy dressed up spreads, no cheese whatsoever, and no semblance of cold cut or other meat product, either. None of […]

Fear and Loathing in the Garden State – Part 2 It had become evident that the festival was not at all what I expected when I found myself standing at its core, feeling fairly certain I could throw a rock and not hit someone. Thank Bacchus we had gotten comped tickets because I was covering […]

We’re ordering some sushi at the sushi bar not long ago, and knowing the limited offering of beers there, I ask for a Sapporo. The guy next to me hears and feels inclined to tell me that of the two big Japanese import beers, he prefers Kirin Ichiban. “But Kirin isn’t an import,” I tell […]

"I ain't the sharpest tool in the shed…"

I’m not altogether sure how other bloggers operate, but I’m the kind of writer who’s constantly finding inspiration for articles all over the place, whether in a magazine, at a store, watching TV, whatever. That basically translates into tiny sticky notes plastered all over the office, random thoughts scratched out on everything from junk mail […]

It’s been way too long since I did an Angel vs. Demon installment here, and reading through the latest issue of All About Beer put me in the mood to rant. I generally like the magazine, by the way, but its categorical lists of the “Best Beers of 2009” nearly caused me an aneurism when […]

I always start out with the best of intentions…I really do. But the road to hell is paved with them, and I’m pretty sure that’s the road I’m on, with no signs of a red light or a u-turn. A couple of weeks ago, some of my dearest Twittering food bloggers started a bit of […]
