yesterday was a good day...

and  a long day-- dorian (little d) got in from his externship in florida and we celebrated by getting tattooed and an amazing meal. okay--that tattoo wasn't planned on my part, but i was able to be squeezed in and got a tattoo i've been wanting for a while now. but the amazing meal was at hotoke a newer restaurant on george street in new brunswick--it's an asian-y fusion type place that two of our friends work at and the chefs that helped open it also worked on nobu london & vegas-- and it was amazing. i'm officially sold on sushi now- i had what they called a zen roll which was shrimp, crab, crunchy mayo--and it was wrapped in cucumber, not seaweed. it was amazing. we ate so much food and got to meet the head chef--also their miso braised short ribs were great..way better than mine--

ok. so some links. 

traci "slut machine" egan tests out the clone-a-willy/pussy kits over at jezebel (she uses the molds to make chocolate with--see it's food related, and totally nsfw. if you want the full story check out her blog. still nsfw.)

there's speculation robert irvine may be axed from from the food network following his scandal. 

also a short little write up on female sommeliers in new york magazine. apparently there are only 3 female masters of wine in the states (i was lucky enough to meet one at school, and was told that it's harder to become a master of wine than it is to become a doctor that's how strict they are)
