Not going to lie, gang, it was a slow month.  Most of that was intentional and on purpose, as I finished a book, am getting it ready for publication, and started writing my next one (I'm close to 20K words into it so far).  Add in some volunteering, working out (and starting to finally see some results) and it just was a low key month -- sometimes that's the way of the world. So, what did register?
  • Charcoal grilled octopus, The Fish House
  • Slow cooked short beef ribs and Gnocchi, BOCA (served during their Friday brunch, one to enjoy)
  • Langoustine, Scalini
Looking ahead to next month, I'll be starting immediately with visits to both Beefbar and SLAB, both of which I've heard good things from.  Also, it's my birthday!  I'm not sure if 38 is something to get really hyped over, but looking back to my 37th year there was a lot going on. What were some of your favorite dishes this month?
