I kind of jumped into this thing blindly. To have assumed that I would be the first Portland food snob would be stupid, right? I finally plugged "portland food blog" into google. It would be an understatement to say that I have my work cut out for me. I am just a silly girl in a transient state of life who likes to eat and thinks that she can write. I didn't realize the sheer number of people who, not only know their shit, but have the means to eat out all the time.

just a few in a massive sea of self-proclaimed lovers of food. They have wit, they have palette, and goddamnit they have flippin pictures. Pictures! How weird would it be for me to go into some nice restaurant and whip out my digital slr.
"How is your steak?"
"Hold on, I need to make sure I'm capturing the perfect medium rare pink under the green of the wilted spinach."
I know I am Asian, I'm supposed to like pictures, but I don't think I'll ever have the balls to take pictures of my food in the name of bloggery.
"Why are you taking a picture of your steak?"
"I blooooooooooog"
"you are also eating alone"
admittedly, sometimes plating is the funnest part. give it time friends, i need to adjust
