I find these interesting... I don't take a huge amount of stock in them as a diner, but they do say something about them so it's worth paying some attention... I'm mostly familiar with Austin so seeing the list there is fun... I like the diversity of the list. The BBQ spots, the fine and not so fine...

I love Wirecutter sometimes because their nerdiness is just second to none. It's no surprise (to me) who the winner of their Canned Tomatoes testing was, I just really like their approach to the whole thing... Read it here:

It's been a few weeks since our trip but here's how it went down... Gwen was awesome... Not much more to say, the pics say it all. Mrs. Lunchbox is sad that we missed Curtis cooking by a week. (He posted pics of himself cooking a few days after our trip.) Insta photo dump 1 Insta photo dump 2 I real...

Man, it's been a really long time since I've been to Beckett's Table and I forget about how good that place is.

Chi Spacca has been on my list for a long time...

Thanks!

Heading to L.A. this weekend with Mrs. Lunchbox without the kids to see PuppetUp . (Woo-hoo!) Already have reservations at Gwen but looking for anything else fun in Hollywood. We are staying at the Lowes Hollywood (on Highland) right behind the Dolby in the heart of Hollywood and we don't have a car...

What's everyone's stance on "Feetza"? Where do you start? Heel? Toes? Big toe? Pinky toe?

So many questions....

Oh man. Best ribs yet that I've had from them last week. The char, the marinade, the sweetness. Gotta go back soon. Such a great dish.

This place is just so f'n good. And they serve food late (full menu all the way up to 11pm), which has made for very happy post-show bellies after several recent events downtown. Last night was a simple and straightforward sharing session with Mrs. Lunchbox. We started with an appetizer that looked ...

Ooh, and I heard that chef Bob Tam's Dragon Dumpling Burger is back on the menu at Bitter and Twisted . I haven't had it in years, but it used to be top of mind when discussing favorite burgers in town. OK so what's going on with B+T? We went a few months ago and the menu was all Jamaican Jerk Chic...
