Pickleman's Gourmet Cafe

Published on 2012-08-23 03:59:00

This was funny, because my wife and kids were originally sitting in the shade at a nice table in Kirkwood, with the intention of going into Kaldi's and picking some great tasting food. I hear that the food is great and while I only have tried a scone and some cookies, I was eager to try some more umami-related food. I was not initially impressed with their menu. Nothing against Kaldi's, really

The best of Bravo!

Published on 2012-08-16 03:49:00

Last Saturday night, my wife and I joined some friends for a night out.  We went, to Bravo, in West County, and was a time to erase all previous visit experiences.  There was a lot of different variables this time, that may have helped make the whole event better than previous ones.  First of all, it was in the evening, it was a nice night, and we had outdoor seating.  Then a few minutes after

Credible?

Published on 2012-07-26 09:50:00

This past week, I have had a great opportunity.  I had the VP of Web Operations at insidestl.com, enjoy my blog so much that he wished to create a whole new section on the site and allow me to write for it.  So, I wrote an introduction article and thought I'd see how it goes for a few weeks, which is what they wanted me to do as well.  What struck me immediately, was the amount of people who

thanks for hanging on

Thanks everyone for hanging on here.  I have had a crazy week.  A great site catering to the younger generation of St. Louis, has picked me up as the sole writer for their STL Eats section.  They never have had a writer about food in st. louis yet and the VP of the site loves tasty-magazine and he picked me up.  I have been writing on there.  He only wants me to focus on stl though, so if there

Again with the Bravo?

Published on 2012-07-17 03:28:00

Yes, I did go to Bravo! again. The thing is with this restaurant, is that because it is part of a mall that we visit at least once a month, this restaurant becomes one of the options of places where my family and I can eat. If you have been reading my posts, you would have noticed that I have been there at least twice so far. The first time, I just had my wife and I and we had great service

Why haven't you been here yet???

Published on 2012-07-12 10:49:00

Ok, from a completely objective point of view, you have to go to Tokyo Sushi, on Lindbergh, in St. Louis.  My wife and I have been there many, many times and we have NEVER had anything bad.  They are super friendly, will fix any issue without hesitation and will help you out.  I know we have been going there for many years: from my kids both in high chairs and car seats to using their own chairs

The flaw in Weight Watchers

Published on 2012-07-03 03:30:00

Weight Watchers is a great thing, in that it keeps people counting points instead of calories in hopes that they lose weight when they become aware of how much they are eating.  Instead of having candy, cookies and cheese all day, people see that a point cap, prevents them from pigging out on unhealthy foods and staying within a certain range, which can really be mimicked by watching and counting

A needle in a haystack

Published on 2012-06-26 03:59:00

I'm not going to go on about the dangers of high fructose corn syrup.  I'm not.  I can't stand the commercials that come out when more and more people are disapproving of this ingredient.  So, when I'm in a store and find a giant aisle filled with snacks, it is like finding a needle in a haystack, when I look for a snack product with no high fructose corn syrup. This picture on represents HALF of

Book Review: Suze Orman, The Money Class

Published on 2011-09-02 17:12:00

During the last 3 years the USA and other countries have been through a deep recession, many people have lost their jobs. So we all have to improvise, and in my opinion the best way to do is educating our self financially in a way that we can learn how to save, how to invest and how to not fall into any scam. So I decided to buy the new Suze Orman's book The Money Class, this book is very good for the average person, for someone that is not in the financial business, she talks about how to save, [..]

Droppled charges in the Dominique Strauss-Kahn's Case

Published on 2011-08-24 19:10:00

Many people have followed the Dominique Strauss-Kahn since the beginning, until finally yesterday it was announced that the charges were dropped due to the lack of evidence. As a new yorker I couldn't help to ask myself, did he do it? was this a matter of "take care of the reach white guy and disregard the poor black woman? did race play a part on this? The reason I asked myself those questions was because apparently many other people in this city thought about it also, especially for some black [..]
