Meet & Eat: Julie, A Finger In Every Pie

According to some studies, 60-80% of blogs are abandoned in the first month. Blogging since 2004, Julie falls into the "old school food blogger" classification.

Meet & Eat: Kevin Smalley

This week we'd like to introduce you to Kevin Smalley's LOL-inducing food blog, Acme Instant Food. But it's not just about the laughs. A lack of inspiration in the kitchen inspired Kevin to organize an ingredient exchange project called Acme Instant Ingredients.

Name: Kevin Smalley Location: Los Angeles Occupation: Development director for a nonprofit charity URL: acmeinstantfood.blogspot.com What prompted you to start your blog, Acme...

David Haskell on Online Food Crit

To supplement the foodblog this and foodblog that discussion going on recently, Eater L.A. grabs David Haskell, owner of Bin 8945, to share his thoughts on another food-crit site, Chowhound: I banned Chowhound. It’s not that I don’t think the writers supply some decent informative reviews. It’s that most of the reviews never critique the food or actual service. I always thought my profession was to supply the best food and service for the cost. If you want to review that, then please mention the food and why you didn’t like it. Or the service. Did we not put down silver for every course? But “It sucks” is not a review. People have come to my restaurant with cards that...
