• @linecook no, but you should realize you’re a B tier internet food celebrity now. in reply to linecook #
• 2006 Radio-Coteau Von Weidlich Zin at 33. Fucking unreal. Seriously. Wine nirvana. #
• I realized today: I didn’t like BBQ that much because I don’t like KC style. North Carolina is where it’s at! Burning hot vinegar. #
• Slow Food Trivia night was a success. I was the only one that could spot a matsutake on site, and we raised a bunch of money for farmers. #
• Tonight’s drinking: 2007 Bourbon County Stout >> Nogne Imperial Stout #
• Pappy’s brisket on 222 whole wheat and topped with a Yellowtree farm egg. #
• Needless to say, I have not fully figured out the need for twitter, so I just tweet every worthhile thing I ingest. #
• Is it weird I honestly don’t like sitting at tables in restaurants because I’m uncomfortable having people I consider peers serve me? #
• If there is a finer Belgian White than Hitachino White Ale, I do not know what it is. #
• Very annoyed this pic of the 1946 Chicago Meat Packers strike will not be mine. http://tinyurl.com/cblvsn #
• However these pics of a 1920s butcher shop are mine http://tinyurl.com/dm62jw #
• @ruhlman My wife made soda cake for her job. Thus my thought: Even if they won’t/don’t care, should you not give them better? Enlighten! in reply to ruhlman #
• Taqueria el Jalapeno for tacos al pastor and sopes de barbacoa. #
• Slow Food national conference call time. Will we hear anything good? We shall see. #
• I had never heard of Raj Patel before, but his enthusiasm for food justice is remarkably engaging. #
• @amateurgourmet Have you tried TK’s. His is great. in reply to amateurgourmet #
• If you order a dish (say the Cuban @ Growler’s) and it’s not what it classically ought to be, can it still be a great dish? This one is. #
• This company, Green Foods, makes an organic Gatorade substitute: Magma Plus – The Ultimate Super Food. Some things should not be organic. #
• If TK makes all his cooks cut tape rather than tearing it, why not just go all the way and use a label maker? #
• That a 4:1 carb:protein ration is the ultimate recovery drink, and chocolate milk just happens to hit that perfectly, makes me very happy! #
• @gutcheckstl a job that encourages you to leave and go to the market. Must be nice. in reply to gutcheckstl #
• Farrar sells all the Berkshire belly. #
• Slow Food Terra Madre talk with Biver , Prairie grass farms, and Niche is set for the second Wednesday of May. #
• Market pork news: Salume Beddu is getting Mangalitsa. Farrar Out Farm is getting red wattle breeding stock. #
• And off to the good pie. #
• Arugula pesto w/ pancetta pizza @ the good pie #
• @gutcheckstl sandwich of stlbites: herb crusted roast beef @ Smoke House Market. in reply to gutcheckstl #
• Today’s lunch: Pho Long with a ringer …an actual Vietnamese guy. Will it hold up? Fingers are crossed. #
• Overruled by co-workers, it was off to Simply Thai instead for barbecued pork skewers and sticky rice. http://tw2.us/jb #
• Every day I eat, literally, quantity:5 peanut M&Ms. I never cheat and eat more. My coworkers find this strange. Is it strange or control? #
• @MichaelNagrant Plus, how many more mediocre $20 burgers do we need floating around the US? Have you ever tasted superchef burger success? in reply to MichaelNagrant #
• At Pi next to stlhops Mike Sweeney. Downing our own creation: thin w/ roasted garlic, goat cheese, kalamatas and mushrooms. #
• I seriously cannot believe how many people are in Pi at 9:30 on Thursday night. Net-foodie loss my ass!!! #
• @gutcheckstl I’d had no idea how much I liked pizza until I lost weight. Now I can’t get enough of the stuff. in reply to gutcheckstl #
• Jonny Style returns to The Lou: RT @jonathanolson: Moving back this week. Then on to Houston 9-27th #
