I write from Denver where I am visiting my dear brother and sister-in-law before heading on to Aspen for the Food & Wine Classic this weekend.
In addition to numerous Zagat articles, I just wrote about the history of Chinese food in SF via 10 dishes at Food Republic and on top tiki and rum bars in the Bay Area for Liquor.com.
This issue:
Imbiber – Top 8 Cocktails of the Month: Sippable goodness, from garden-fresh rhubarb and celery to beer Negronis served in growlers.
Wandering Traveler – Top 10 Hong Kong Meals: Edible thrills in Hong Kong, from Michelin-starred dim sum to some of the best Spanish tapas and Japanese yakitori in the world.
Imbiber – Hong Kong’s Thriving Coffee Scene: There is a wealth of vibrant coffee offerings in HK.
As your personal concierge who tells it like a good friend would, I also create personalized itineraries: trips, meals, explorations (under “Services“).
