My Pizza Ignorance is Staggering

September 26, 2009

I was more than a little bored in New York this past week so I performed an experiment and managed to eat pizza every day for lunch while I was there. I’m happy to be the last person on the planet to realize that most pizza sucks when compared to good ol’ fashion New York pizza.

And now for my next invention…

September 15, 2009

Yesterday I was down at Parkers Waffles talking with Scott Waffle (because in my perfect universe, the food cart rock stars are like the Ramones except they use their products for surnames) and he offered me a free waffle on the house. “Sorry, I have to pay” I said, to which he replied “no, really, just take it.”

Waffles and Gravy? The Review…

September 2, 2009

Parkers has yet to let me down. So good are Parkers Waffles that I try to pay them a visit at least twice a week and have been doing so for over a month now. Throughout that month, Parkers has been promising to offer what I think of as the Holy Waffle Grail – Waffles and Gravy.

The Bite of Oregon… Less Isn’t More

August 7, 2009

I just got back from my 4th Bite of Oregon to sit down and write this. The whole thing is still fresh in my mind. Frankly, they can go ahead and shitcan this entire event any time now as far as I’m concerned. This isn’t the event that I remember attending 4 years ago. In fact, The Bite of Oregon has become almost a joke.

Northwest Nosh Dishes On Northwest Greasy Spoons

April 17, 2009

Those wacked out foodies on Northwest Nosh ran the interview well dry this afternoon and asked yours truly to participate on their radio show. Normally I don’t think of myself as much of a food expert but since the topic du jour was greasy spoons in the pacific northwest I found it hard to resist. [...]
