Earlier this summer, I got to revisit some friends and former foodie favorites in my most recent "home" of Milwaukee, Wisconsin. When returning to an old habitat, it always amazes me how much a city can change within a matter of months (note: I moved in January). I experience this same feeling each time I … Continue reading Char’d – A Charming Addition to MKE’s Third Ward
Like I had mentioned in my recent post about moving to Connecticut, I am thoroughly impressed by the amount of good, ethnic cuisine found within the state. For instance, in the most nondescript plaza in West Hartford one can find Shu Restaurant serving up very authentic Sichuan cuisine in an ever-so-classic Chinese restaurant setting. We … Continue reading Shu Shu Baby
Now that the dust has settled off from my move cross-country, it’s about time I posted about said move and my new home (apologies for the two-month writing drought). Earlier this year I moved to West Hartford, CT for work, and while I didn’t know much about the area or the Pioneer Valley, I knew … Continue reading New Beginnings in New England

While I'm excited to start exploring all … Continue reading Best of MELwaukee

There is a special place in my heart (and stomach) for tacos. The tortilla shells filled to the brim with flavor-packed meats, veggies, spices & other accoutrements are never dull and deserve their own place in the food pyramid. My favorite type of taco is a Mexican street style where the protein does all the … Continue reading Let’s Give Them Somethin’ to Taco ’bout
No restaurant put the protein + rice bowl on the map quite like Chipotle with their burrito bowl concept. I mean how many "bowl" dishes did you see on menus from sit-down to quick-serve restaurants alike until Chipotle came to the scene? Probably not many unless you frequented an authentic Asian restaurant serving up hot … Continue reading Bowls that are Mixin’ it up in Milwaukee
One of the best things about Atlanta is its ever-changing landscape of food and entertainment; one of the best things about going back to visit Atlanta is the ever-changing, and always new, landscape of food and entertainment. In my most recent escapades in the city where players play, I recharged my Atlanta Battery as well as … Continue reading Weekend Getaway: New Digs ATL
