Great American Beer Fest
Back in October, I went with Aaron, Gordon, and Justin to Denver to attend every beer fan’s personal mecca – the Great American Beer Fest.

Mets Opening Day 2008, Part 1
On April 8, 2008, the Mets had their home opener at Shea Stadium for the 45th and final time.
Building the new stadium necessitated the demolition of the ramp coming from the subway station. The new, temporary staircase is actually an improvement over the ramp as it doesn’t have the entryway that constricted the flow of passengers.

Extreme Beer Fest – Night of the Barrels
This past weekend, I went with a couple of friends to Beer Advocate’s Extreme Beer Fest. We attended two sessions – the photos in this post are from the first session. By the time Jess took this photo of us with Jim Koch (center), the founder of the Boston Beer Company (Sam Adams), we’d all had quite a bit to drink. It appeared that Jim had more than we had – at the very least, he was definitely further gone than we were. Who cares – it’s Jim fuckin’ Koch!

Scrubs: The Farewell Tour
This past Saturday, the cast and producer of Scrubs made their way to the Paly Center for a screening and Q&A as part of their final season promotional blitz. Before we made our way inside, Donald Faison (Turk) came out to take a few photos with fans.

Dinner @ Perilla
Not having seen the first season of Top Chef, I didn’t know much about Harold Deiterle’s performance on the show. All I’d seen of his cooking was in the Season 1 vs. Season 2 challenge, which is to say, not very much at all. This past summer, he opened up his own restaurant – though, technically, he co-owns the place – Perilla. Finally able to get a reservation, I went with a few friends for dinner last week.
