Dining Contest

So although I haven’t received too many e-mails about the dinner contest, I have received numerous personal inquiries. Because of this I thought I’d make a new post (on a Saturday when people really have nothing better to do than write to me) to clarify the dining contest guidelines.

It’s simple, here is all you have to do:

Write me an e-mail: Arun22183@gmail.com

In the e-mail describe why you like eating (eating as a simple form of sustenance doesn’t count)

Also describe the strangest thing you have eaten. Where were you at the time? Why did you decide to put such a strange thing in your mouth?

Finally talk about one or two restaurants you would really like to go to and give an impassioned plea as to why I should take you there.

The winner(s?) will have a free meal at the restaurant they choose at the end of January.

It’s that simple. If you can’t think of a restaurant here’s what I suggest you do.

Figure out which type of cuisine is your favorite.
Browse through Zagat, Michelin, NYmag, NY Times etc. to find the best restaurants in that category. Research one and write me about it.

If you still can’t think of a restaurant, try to compel me to come over to your hosue and cook you a 5-6 course meal with wine. If you give a good enough reason I’d be up for that too.


Happy Saturday
