Intro

Those of you who know me will probably be very surprised to see me write online. I have always thought that blogs were for the most part ridiculous and obnoxious. Essentially reserved for self-centered people who feel the need to share intimate details about their lives or disseminate baseless and often poorly articulated opinions on various subjects. And yet, I find myself in my front of my computer about to do the same. Except for the baseless and poorly articulated part, hopefully. So how I did I end up here? I have spent most of my free time over the past 6 years exploring as much of what New York has to offer gastronomically, oenologically and hedonistically (read here innumerable parties and libations) as possible. In the process, not only did I develop enormous respect and interest for the city's diverse culinary establishments and watering holes but I have also become a pseudo reference for friends, colleagues and tourists from my hometown on how to best partake in the Big Apple's pleasures. Since I already shell out recommendations on where to eat and drink a few times a week and that several friends have been suggesting that I start this website, I figured I would give it a try.

Although I am not quite sure yet what form my posts will take, I can certainly promise that this is the only time I will indulge in a long monologue that has nothing to do with eating or drinking in the city. This is meant to be a place where I write about the places I visit and the impressions they have left on me as well as a way to share with other people some of my favorite things about a city I love so dearly. New York, I love you!
