About Me

I live in Logan Square in Chicago with my gorgeous girlfriend and Suki, a developmentally disabled (don't call her retarded, you'll hurt her feelings) black cat. There is a 78% hispanic population in my neighborhood, so there are lots of good tacos to eat. I like to visit friends whenever possible usually in Minneapolis, MN (go Twins) and enjoy a bust schedule as a Chef. I like to go out to eat whenever possible, partially because I get burned out cooking for others, and partially because I'm lazy, and I have a long list of places in Chicago that I want to eat at whenever I get the chance (and the $$).
Top 3 on that list:
-Avec
-The Green Zebra
- The Libertine

My Interests

Cooking, Movies, Music, Exploration, (this is so dumb, I feel like I'm submitting a personals ad so I can date myself) the impending summer season, Cycling, the great outdoors, social drinking, socializing, people watching, competing in the upcoming Rock, Scissors, Paper National Tournament, taking time to unwind.

I'd like to meet:

Obama, Oprah & anyone else in Chicago that is willing to buy me lunch and a beer.
