On a Year of the Dragon Roll

Somehow it is not just 2012 but ten days into the year and I haven't blogged since going cocktail crazy December 21st. (There's really no connection, promise.) I've got plenty I want to write about, from praising places I took too long to ever enjoy (Petit Valentien) to damning with faint so-so's (Ladyface Ale Companie in Agoura Hills). There's out of town good to go's--Mohawk Bend and palate food + wine. There's that essay about service three ways in Maui (and that goes all the way back to July).

So here's to a Georgeeats resoultion for 2012--at least 2 blog entries a week, plus a link to an Indy story (not always the feech, even).

Sound good? Well, eat up, then.

Are They Leftovers If I Never Served Them Once?

Hi, anybody home? That's probably what you've been thinking if you've wandered by (if so, thanks--send friends), and I am here and have a ton to get to, promise, but here are some topics I really need to write about in the next few days/weeks:

Figueroa Mountain Brewing
Avant/Terravant
A-Ru Sushi
Edible Institute (which could be several entries depending how I split the baby--why stop in half, is my early notion?)
Mikeller 1000 IBU

I'll be back, at some length, I hope. In the meantime, check out the Santa Barbara Film Feast Restaurant Week deals still going on through Sunday, February 6. I'll be at one, and need to report about that, too.
