The Hampton Smoker

What's up wtih what's going down? Does a tree falling on the ocean with no one around make a sound? Barbecue, BBQ, Bar-b-que. It's all in how you sell it.

In Dreams: Leaving one job, starting another

Well, peoples, in one week I will be gone from my office job and starting in the unglamorous world of restaurant cookery. I'll work my way up from dishwashing in a condensed form of culinary bootcamp to gear up to run the kitchen at Wildwood BBQ when we open.

In the meantime, here're a bunch of pictures of recent eatings. I'll have more after this weekend, during which I am determined to return to the simple pleasures of hanging out, drinking beer and cooking bbq. The serenity of smoke calls to me.

Lunchtime! Kung Pao Chicken, brown rice and a coke from Grand Sichuan Eastern (2nd +55th)


After the opening of our very good friend, Joyce Pensato's art exhibit, we mosied over to Lombardi's w/ Hiroshi for some vittles.

Enjoy the transition time while you can! The pizza looks fantastic by the way.

Thanks, Bradley! I appreciate it. I veer from joy to terror and back to terror every few minutes, but ultimately I know this is a good choice.

Happy holidays and a safe, healthy and joy-filled new year to you!
