May 1, 2009 general food

• What time is it? http://twitpic.com/3xcfz #
• I love that Niche didn’t sieve their spring garlic potato soup with potato chips. Potatoes should and do have texture. #
• Niche’s Farrar Out Farm porchetta di tessa was great. #
• It’s great to see @WinslowsHome running out of food because it’s a beautiful day and #stl knows it’s great. They’re absolutely slamming! #
• Kampai Sushi is pretty good. Better than expected anyway. Why do all these places in #stl have to rock the down tempo dance music though? #
• Oh… not a very high quality of toro though. #
• drinking 2007 Carlisle Syrah Russian River Valley — http://cor.kz/Fg6 #
• Rockin’ some 2009 #stl Earth Day Festival http://twitpic.com/41q2b #
• I ran a marathon & still gained 5lbs in Boston so, seeing all he eats as tweets, @Rick_Bayless must have the greatest metabolism ever. #
• Why can’t I buy local green peas at the market? I can’t recall ever having seen them and that’s just weak #stl … That or I’m blind. #
• “I like documentaries but I’m sure this movie will tell me that (based on the way I eat) my kids will have flippers or some shit like that” #
• Response: Your kids will be fat diabetics comprised mostly of corn and in need of medical attention, but they won’t have flippers. #
• Road rage amongst locavores: Parking at the Maplewood Market was crazy today. What will it be like in full swing? #
• I’m not going to say I love the Bell’s Oberon, and it’s a bit too hot for it now, but as a summer beer it’s really pretty damn refreshing. #
• While I do love the pie, I think another reason I like @pistl so much is because every time I eat there I feel like someone stole my iPod. #
• Timely considering the happenings on stlbites/forum RT: @MichaelNagrant: Restaurants do deserve second chances… http://tinyurl.com/d239ko #
• Just like being a nice guy, utilizing local does not give you a free pass. You can be the nicest guy in the world and still cook like shit. #
• I think it’s that mid-tier of dining where “foodies” can eat quality but not pay $100+ for a meal that is the wave of the future. See @pistl #
• I don’t have the #swineflu but I’ve got a #swinecold that is driving me crazy. #
