Mise en place for the fabled #Chicago dog, a food form so perfect as to be unimproveable by God or man.

My work life is so incredibly glamorous. #industrylife

Astonishingly simple, outrageously delicious, this Pad Phed Pla Dook (catfish curry) from Mama Thai in suburban #Chicago. Incredible.

Some kitchens, man. #tennessee #industrylife

Outside Nashville tonight with nary a whit of self control. I just can’t help myself.

Sometimes you have to believe the hype. #smallcheval #chicago

Celebrating my enduring right to vote with one of America’s most magical elixirs. #chicagovotes

MSG quite literally being the secret sauce to this Japanese-made mayo’s greatness. Too bad its maker omitted the MSG for the American-made version.

Bellbird Bakeshop is pure magic.

For shopping-mall ramen, this stuff is stellar. #ichiddo #chicago

Happy to be celebrating Mashramani in Georgetown this year with venerable Guyanese favorites like duck curry, callaloo, and metemgee. It might not look pretty, but man…. 🇬🇾

Good morning, Guyana.

The best part about coming home to #Chicago from a long journey? That’s easy.

Le classique. #Paris

Dude. This is amazing. The vibes, man, the aroma!

Paris.

Straight off the plane and into the loving embrace of Tonton Des Dames in Paris’s 17e. What a remarkable way to start this journey.

#paperdosa in Santa Fe for the win.

The best thing I ate this week in Santa Fe? That’s easy: these dumplings from the remarkable #lotusdumplinghouse. Sublime. #santafe

Believe the hype, #Chicago. The husband/wife team behind #thebellbirdbakeshop are absolute masters of their craft.

Sunday afternoon, Chicago.

Nothing says “welcome to Guyana” quite like a breakfast of pepperpot. Always good to be here. 🇬🇾

First meal out in the world of 2026: bun mam (fermented fish soup) from the always-excellent Miss Saigon in #Chicago’s Uptown neighborhood. Because flavors from #Vietnam’s Soc Trang province invariably soothe this eater’s soul like a warm, familiar hug.

Tis the season.
