Congrats to Jess: Best Food Writing 2008

JessthomsonMy coffee shop friend Jess Thomson, author of hogwash (owner of a very carnivorous cat and a neighbor who apparently has a lot of mice in their yard), has an essay published in Best Food Writing 2008. Great job Jess!

This is why: don't shop on an empty stomach

I just returned from shopping on an empty stomach and realized how ridiculous my purchases are. I am not a diabetic or am alcoholic but I don't like to run out of chocolate.

Sunrice for Lunch near University Village

If you've enjoyed Sunrice's tofu (TSS, TSSS, TSSSS) or nori wraps (Kimpap) at PCC or Whole Foods, try their cozy drop-in location for lunch. It's just north of University Village. Learn more.

I recommend the Chapchaebap at $8.50 - sweet potato noodles mixed in house teriyaki sauce with spinach, onions, carrots and zucchini with a choice of grilled beef, chicken, tofu, or shiitake mushrooms served with brown rice. Yum! And lots of leftovers...
