Judging the 7th Annual VAODC Wing-Off. "Clucky's Revenge." Some fine flats and drumettes in the house! Props to Teressa Bellissimo and @anchorbarwings for that 1964 moment in Buffalo when #wings became a thing. #chickenwings

And then Bill Cox of #CasselmonteFarm shows up with a 20.5", 27-pound @bradford_watermelons. "I need your family to eat this 🍉 and save me the seeds." Game on. Team Tesauro is up to the task. Swing by my pad if you want a wedge of this behemoth of the old South saved from extinction. #bradfordwatermelon #watermelon

Maybe there's a reason that you can't spell "hospitality" without "hospital." Food is medicine and Houston's F&B community served up more aid than you can imagine. Gratitude to @reefhouston @sleeping_with_the_chef @albaworksit @julephou @tetsujustin @leftyjonno @greg__baker @chefferrellalvarez and scores upon scores of generous others who swooped in before the FEMA and Red Cross cavalry galloped in. My latest in @esquire. Link in bio.

Grazie @pedal_power_rva & @giantbicycles for the #defyadvanced. LOVE these wheels along @visitrichmondva's #CapitalTrail. #chefsinshape #eatdrinkridereapeat #silhouette #discbrakes
Just a spin around #littleitaly as they prep for #sangennaro. Got my killer B's workin en route to @beardfoundation house for @waldorfastoria's #tasteofwaldorf: #boutonniere, bespoke #chalkstripe and badass #bolo from @spacecowboynyc. Just a quickie one-niter, #NYC friends, pardon the low profile this time 'round.
This September moment brought to you by @jonesthewine, Viré-Clessé and Mother Nature. #caterpillars

One year ago this week, @reneredzepinoma and @themadfeed changed my life. After shacking up with @thegordinier and feasting on @nomacph culture with @elizabethrestaurant_and_co, to do nothing would've been an insult to @katkinsman and her mission to save chefs' lives. Grateful for the chance to sprinkle a little @bobech-flavored fairy dust on my #RVA family. Grazie @richmondmag, @pedal_power_rva, @balancerva and @giantbicycles for supporting us. #mad5 #chefsinshape Link in bio.

M-m-m-my @corona! Plus @millerhighlife @millerlite. Splashy highlights from Saturday's impromptu poolside flight of #partybeers from what was in @kbreesea's fridge. Next time, let's try @pbr @budlight @budweiser @coorslight @naturallightbeer @michelobultra. Sparkling camera work by the effervescent @melanie.headley.
