I started writing for the Los Angeles Reader in 1985, and since then I've written food and dining -related articles for the Easy Reader, South Bay Lifestyle,The Village View, The Food Paper, LA Downtown News, San Francisco Focus, SOMA Magazine, Patterson's Beverage Journal, Beach Magazine, and other publications living and dead. Though I've tried to remove defunct restaurants from this archive, the information in reviews appearing and linked from this site may be out of date. If you run across an article here that is no longer applicable, please let me know.
