Weekend links.

A steady week including upping my word count (hitting 50K!), meeting a new (and crazy talented) friend, an actual food review (well done to Hanami), and getting some seriously generous food deliveries (thanks to Reach My Kitchen, 3 Fils, and The Broth Lab for keeping us well fed). Some links?

• Our lives happen in restaurants (might be behind a paywall).
• Influencers...on gas stoves?
• You had me at Ja Rule and gyros.
• At the corner of food and fiction.
• Love these street view portraits.
• NGL, this was and has been my biggest concern for travel going forward. Spoiler alert, I don't see this getting better any time soon.
• The future of restaurants post-corona virus.
• You had me at tipsy sorbet.
• Is this the end of tourism? (Is that a bad thing?)
• Why do we dine out?  I had some thoughts.

This weekend we're having one chill out day, which will mostly revolve around cooking up some of the massive amounts of seafood I received, and then taking more of that seafood to our friend's place for a doggy playdate on Saturday.  Next week I'll be trying to finish the next season of my podcast, and going to get my hair cut and colored for the first time since March 10th. Hope you're staying safe and wearing your mask!
