There’s only so much that salt, pepper and hot sauce can do to save food that doesn’t undergo cooking and baking in space to produce flavor.

Pad Thai was a bowl of terribly rubbery rice noodles tossed with eggs, some veggies and peanuts with bland chicken in a barely spiced sauce. Noodles & Company feels like an old-timer being overwhelmed by the fast-casual kids it helped spawn. #noodlesandcompany

A lovely, classy ritual ensued as our Flight Attendant delivered our tall, water-filtered bong with three bowls, a lighter and two personal mouthpieces. The budtender stopped by our table to show off our strains. #cannabis

I’ve always enjoyed the filled masa patties from Pupusas Familia, banh mi at Savory Saigon and traditional breakfast at The Orange Tent. Tacos Del Norte dishes spot-on street tacos, and Rang Tang’s ribs with mac-n-cheese are my comfort go-to dishes.

"I expected to be treated with more respect,” Lehndorff said.
“Newspapers like this — they’re about the things that we do together,” he said. “And we lose something when we don’t have these common platforms that all of us share.”

I believe in pie.

We like to brag on things that are “as American as apple pie,” which is really to say that pie, like all us citizens, emigrated here from elsewhere and found a home.

‘American as apple pie’ means it was invented elsewhere and came here as an immigrant
(Happy July Fourth! This was written October, 2008): I believe in pie. My favorite food, bar none, is warm, fresh wild blueberry pie a la moded with good vanilla bean ice cream. But my faith transc…

I have seen (and tasted) the future of cannabis in the United States.
And, yes, I inhaled at Cirrus Social Club, Colorado's first place where you can eat, smoke and take home a quarter ounce.
And, I liked it.
