The full set of “food porn” photos I took last week are now online. Last Wednesday I attended Clandestino Dining’s<\/a> first “underground dining” event in Memphis, combining art with a 7-course dinner. I posted about a dozen pics on my blog Saturday, but now you can view the full set of photos here.<\/a><\/p>\n

Speaking of food: The Memphis Flyer’s Hungry Memphis Blog has a post about the cook-off at South Main Trolley Night this Friday.<\/a> Defending champion Ella Bella, coming off a victory over Gloria last month, will put her title on the line against Gary Friday night. Gary is making Korean BBQ tacos; Ella is making a Bacon Explosion. I think just on the basis of menu selection, my vote is for Ella!<\/p>\n

Mmmm… thinking back to the hot dog served at Bardog last night… you know what would be even better than a Bacon Explosion? A McSorley’s beer-battered Bacon Explosion. Someone needs to give that idea a try soon.<\/p>\n

Need a job? The Peabody is hiring for more than a dozen positions. Check out the list here.<\/a><\/p>\n
