Reflections on taste-ings.

Blogging like it’s 1999.

Posted by John Manzo on July 15, 2007

I’ve dabbled in blogging over the years but I’ve decided at long last to take it more seriously. So here I am. I post all the time on sites like chowhound and coffeegeek, and the commentary and reviews I post at these sites is sorta akin to “blogging,” but I’ve come to realise that I need a dedicated place for myself, not in the (or a) “community” and unencumbered by debate. That doesn’t mean I don’t welcome comment, but this is my place. I hope it goes well.

    Of course, I know you from the urbanist message board skyscraperpage.com

    I follow your posting closely on Chowhound as well, which is always very useful as an aspiring, yet too poor, food snob.

    I also, on your recommendations had some absolutely delicious coffee and Phil and Sebastian’s at Calgary Farmer’s Market. Fantastic place that market is.

    Thanks Josh- and the best food snobs are poor ones! They make sure the value is on the plate, where it belongs!
