Food Mug Shot: Nantucket Bay Scallop Carpaccio from Quince
This weekend I had an epic dining experience at Quince. Here is one of 8 courses we had on that legendary night: Nantucket Bay Scallop Carpaccio with silver lime, pomegranate, sea urchin, blood orange and sicilian hot pepper.

My First Half Marathon

San Francisco’s ‘Heatpocalypse’
I like how you can add “-pocalypse” to anything and it becomes a revelatory Armageddon-like crisis. For example, remember when there were heaps of snow on the East Coast in February and they called it “Snowpocalypse”? That was kind of cool — but not as cool as the term, “douchepocalypse” which I think originated from...

I also heard that they were starting to sell some baked goods – including cupcakes. It’s a win-win situation. Obesity in a bowl During the final...
My New Shoes are Better Than an iPad

Really Bad Pictures from the Premiere of the ‘Resident Evil: Afterlife’ Trailer
Last week, I discovered that taking pictures in a movie theater with a regular point and shoot digital camera does not work. On the first evening of WonderCon, I was invited to watch the premiere of the trailer for latest 3-D eyegasm known as Resident Evil: Afterlife at the Metreon. The theater was full of...
