Three quick nibbles.

- Save the date! I'm speaking at my first food panel ever, reading a chapter from my book on Sunday 1/14 at 5 PM at Good World, located at 3 Orchard Street, between Canal and Division. I'll be sharing the stage with Andrea Strong and Patrick Martins. Can't wait to see you there.

- Behold my latest Serious Eats comic book post, Good Take-Out Vietnam. Hope you are entertained...

- Finally, Spring Awakening is now open on Broadway and it's getting raves. I got another free pair of tix last week (don't hate me) and it only confirmed that this show is the best new musical on Broadway. Don't believe me? Download the soundtrack on iTunes like I just did. Listening to it now and it's beautiful.
