It’s tough out there. You know how I know? Because every political ad is telling me so. It’s beginning to mess with my head, either we’re wickedly worse off than we were a few years ago or we are surely headed into a world of peril if we don’t act now. What’s an optimist to do…
Bachelor Farmer Declares: Debates Can Be Fun, Too!
Are you looking for something to take the edge off of tonight’s debate? I think Pip Hanson’s your man for that.
For tonight’s debate, the Bachelor Farmer is opening their second floor game room for a viewing party. Besides a little beer/wine pop-up bar right in the screening room, Pip will specially craft a…
F3: Next Gen
This Fresh Forkin’ Friday I’m feeling a little sluggish. We had a slam bam event last night at the Le Cordon Bleu to benefit the scholarship funds of the James Beard Foundation. I could tell you tales of meat umbrellas, foie gras croquettes, bacon wrapped sweetbreads, and desserts that needed a “blast shield” but all of that…
Smack to the Shack: An Update
Do we ever tire of restaurant drama in this town? Can we just stop nibbling the ends of our fingers as we drive by under-construction joints waiting to see if perhaps they might be secretly open? The answer is no, because we’re hungry.

Now fall beer season, that’s something complex and brainy, what with all the stouts and porters coming back like a hot…
F3: Homecoming
It’s Fresh Forkin’ Friday and that means Homecoming in this house. I don’t really have to go home for homecoming, I kinda already did that when I moved back and installed my brood in the very same schools I attended as a youth. Never thought I’d do that, but then I did. So tonight’s football game…
Big Orchard Shindig and Hard Cider Launch
Don’t get me wrong, I love a good jumping-goats-apple-train-roll-in-the-corn-bin orchard Saturday as much as the next local, but perhaps not EVERY Saturday.
