What’s Cookin’

August 28, 2007

Hello friends. So as you may recall, I’m not even in SF right now, but out rocking it hard on the playa at Burning Man. Woot woot! Since Burning Man is inspiring a giving mood in me, here’s a little something I scheduled to be sent to you…

Okay, confession time. Guess who is leaving town yet again? Don’t hate me. Yes, yours truly is trucking off to Burning Man this weekend (like most San Franciscans age 28-40 over the coming week), and will be WAY off the grid until September 4. I might as well be…

Okay, not to rub it in for you folks who couldn’t make it to the first tablehopper supper, but boy, that was one heck of an enjoyable evening at Cortez. What an enthusiastic and savvy group of diners! We feasted. We talked. We made new friends. It was a…

OK, can someone PLEASE make this fog go away? I’m getting cranky. Seriously. However, I had such a fine time this weekend with my Half Moon Bay mini-getaway (yes, in the fog) that I was inspired to get my jetsetter piece all written up for you, stat. Especially while…

Yo, color me stoked! Big thanks to the editors at the San Francisco Bay Guardian for voting tablehopper “Best Fresh Scuttlebutt” in the Best of the Bay 2007 lineup. And bonus, they spelled my name right AND didn’t call tablehopper a blog. Looking forward to the party on Friday,…

Mamma mia, what a week. I managed to get in a dinner at Avec in Chi-town, wish I could airlift it and plunk it down in SF, what a great vibe, concept, and vittles—check it out in this week’s jetsetter. I am already working on my Nawlins write-up…

What the hell, am I leaving town again? Jeesh! When you get this I’ll be in Chicago, and then leaving Wednesday for New Orleans for liver calisthenics, AKA Tales of the Cocktail. Let the good times roll, indeed. After all that jambalaya and po’ boys and gumbo and Sazeracs…

Yo! I am finally back from NYC. I know some of you were wondering if I was ever going to return—I was having such a blast I ended up extending my trip three more days. I have finally caught up on some sleep and am currently eating brown rice…

What I am about to tell you should be no surprise: there will be no tablehopper this week. (How totally NOT shocking!) I am quite certain you understand. My past week tearing around New York has been quite ridiculous. Like, ridiculously fun! Today I actually have an entirely new kind…

Hey, thanks to everyone for sending NYC tips my way—I officially need to clone myself and get a cow’s stomach (i.e. four) to make this all happen. Oh, and a sugar daddy wouldn’t hurt. Anyway. I can’t wait—leaving Wednesday! So just to manage expectations,…
