avl_food_fans_logo_1600X1600Hello Asheville!

Ermergerd, so busy. Too busy to write much, sorry. I’ve been eating out just as often as ever, but have only had time to post pictures on Instagram, Twitter, and FaceBook, and haven’t had time to write for Ashvegas in a couple of weeks.

Busy doing what, you lazy sack of shit?

Wellll…  busy slingin’ hot dogs every Friday night at The Clingman Cafe. Busy putting out the world’s greatest free paper just for children, Asheville Flyer for Kids. Busy dressing-up like a Whistlepig and harassing people on the streets of Asheville. And too also… Busy hanging out with my buddy, Chef Joe Scully, doing our awesome podcast, AVL Food Fans!  Doing this podcast is my fave new thing EVER!

    It’s actually very complicated in this full of activity life to listen news on Television, therefore I just use the web for that purpose,
    and take the hottest news.
