    april's dining out theme - BAR FLY

    at the beginning of this week, i made a bit of an (in)decent proposal - to start an online flogger event focused on dining out. there's been a positive response so far for participation, so i am super excited and hope lots of others will play!

    this month, after much brainstorming with my culinary cohorts, the theme for our inaugural event is...

    BAR FLY: eat at the bar

    “eat at the bar” can be interpreted in whatever creative or not-so-creative way you so desire. there are bars you can eat in. for l.a., might you hit up father’s office and have one of the burgers? and it sure doesn't have to be fancy - some of the best meals i've had were wings and things at the local sports bar. there are many eating establishments that have a bar at which you can sit and eat; i've done this at enoteca drago. and of course, there are many cuisines that already involve a bar. uh, like a sushi bar? exactly. now you get it! heck, if the dining deities don’t descend upon you, just eat anywhere, order a drink from the bar, and you’re in the game!

    there are no hard and fast rules here – just fun and food, but just in case there is someone who likes to have guidelines:

    1. interpret the theme as you wish – BAR FLY: eat at the bar
    2. go eat any time betwixt now and thursday, april 28, 2005
    3. write about it
    4. post it up on your blog (or email me if you don’t have one) before the 28th.


    i will put a nice, neat little summary of all the experiences, linking out to everyone else's posts on friday the 29th. oh, what a delicious life we lead!

    see? easy. fun.

    now buzz buzz, bar-flies, and bon appetit!

      oooh, I need to find a bar that serves BBQ. or a BBQ bar? This can't be nothing but fun. Just one thing to remember..."if you can't be with the food you love, love the food you are with."

      Too good to be true! This is my standard mode of "dining out". :-) Looking forward to hearing about all the experiences.

      Excellent. My first instinct was to go to Bar Fly on Sunset, but alas, I think it is gone...luckily there are a zillion other choices! Thanks so much for coming up with this! It's going to be fun.

      Ooooh, I'll be in Madrid on Thursday, the 28th of April where bar fly eating (aka tapas) has become an art form. Can I post upon my return on the 2nd?....
