A few weeks ago my friends, Double Down, Dirty (yes, we call him Dirty), and I went to the last session of the Drink Craft Beer Spring Beer Fest. The theme this time around was hoppy beers like IPA's. Upon entering the Beer Fest, which was at Space 57 at the Revere Hotel in Boston,... Continue Reading →
Eat like a Pharaoh! I don't care how you spell it (Molokhia, Molokheya, Mulukhiya) or what you call it (Jews Mallow, Jute Mallow, Mallow Leaves) because regardless of the name, this is one of my favorite comfort foods. It is a traditional Egyptian soup that was typically eaten by royalty in Ancient Egypt, but eventually... Continue Reading →

I've smoked a pork butt twice (there's really no un-awkward way to say that) and both times it was especially difficult to get it to that "fall-off-the-bone" state. Smoking takes hours and I don't always have that kind of time on my hands, so I wanted to get all of that pork butt goodness, but... Continue Reading →
I can't remember how exactly, but at some point I stumbled onto a site called Mystery Meet. I know it sounds like a blind dating site, but it's not. It's actually a site designed to get larger groups of people in different cities together to meet one another and have dinner at a mystery location.... Continue Reading →
I've had a lot of posts about my visit to New Orleans such as my Visual Food Tour, Collard Greens Recipe, and Boudin Preparation. Normally, I like to mix things up, but when there is so much great food to choose from in New Orleans, why limit yourself? On my first visit to New Orleans,... Continue Reading →
