Why You’ll Love Us
There is no one writing about food and culture today, with my particular collection of attributes and experience. On the surface: I’m picky, eccentric and educated/sophisticated in my taste.

Dig a little deeper and you’ll find that I’m also nostalgic, forward-thinking and gentle (also obsessed with dismantling the details) with my fixations on certain material that excels, and sometimes transcends boundaries. I want you to enjoy and find use in what you read here, and I think you will.
