VEGAS, BABY! My Top 5

VEGAS, BABY! My Top 5

So I got to thinking the other day.  Which never bodes well for anyone.  But it occurred to me in a moment of pure debauchery walking through the casino floor at the Bellagio in Las Vegas, having just had yet another blockbuster meal while clad in nothing but the best that what in hell was [...]

Just Call Me Mrs. NYC

Just Call Me Mrs. NYC

Okay. I know I say I love a lotta places. But this time it’s for reals. New York has swept into my world like a once in a lifetime love, the kind of love you introduce to your parents, a love you wear a ring for, a wild and crazy love that changes you forever. [...]

Bonjour, Bitches!

Bonjour, Bitches!

Whew, guys! Where do I begin? So remember that time I told you I was going to take a little vacay after my show was over to, y’know, experience some R&R and take it down a notch? Yeah well, not so much. I made the mistake of picking Montreal and New York as my places [...]

416 Snack Bar

I’m going to tell you something I probably shouldn’t. It’s not something I’m proud of, and it’s certainly not something any respectable foodie would go blabbing about on their amateur blog on the Internets. But I’m only human, and we’re all friends here, and for the sake of this particular restaurant review, I gotta come [...]

Buca

As I’ve said before, I’m a creature of habit. I like what I know. I realize how boring that makes me sound, but it’s the truth. I’m a planner, a list-maker, a neurotic weirdo who wears the same perfume for years on end and the kind of person who equates the risk of trying anything [...]
