This past weekend was non-stop rush of social events, good company, and amazing food. I love it when a bunch of people get together in a shared kitchen and cook for the group. No one sits idle for too long, everyone pitches in. It’s a good time, a great way to get to know people [...]
I have mixed feelings about big chain restaurants. While I certainly patronize my fair share, I try to highlight the little guys, Mom and Pop, and hole in the wall places that frequently go overlooked. But sometimes you’ve got to give credit to a fantastic sandwich.
