Boqueria: A Memorable Meal

The older I get, the harder it is to remember things.  This includes my correct age.  For the last few months I kept thinking I was a year older than I was.  The good news is that on my birthday I have no trouble adjusting to my new number. So it is notable that nearly […]

Rogue 24: Checking it Out – CLOSED

I know what I want for my birthday without any hesitation.  Dinner at Rogue 24.  There is nothing like a birthday as an excuse for a high-end dining experience, and Rogue 24 tops my list.  My husband and I both appreciate innovative cooking.  I’ve read enough to know what to expect, including Tom Sietsema’s recent […]
