SMOKEWIRE — Tim Byres and Smoke, as well as Tim Love and Woodshed Smokehouse, got a handsome slideshowy shout out today from The Washington Post for their elevation of barbecue and related "down-home cuisine." [WaPo]
YELPWIRE — Sometimes Yelp goes bad. Like, when Dace Street (or, as he claims, someone who hacked his account) posted one-star reviews of competitors Maple & Motor and Twisted Root. This is why we can't have nice things. [SideDish/City of Ate]
FIREWIRE — This Sunday at the Shops at Park Lane, chefs like Graham Dodds and Randall Copeland will team up with fire fighters for a cooking battle. Sounds like a great event until you get to the name—Chefs On Fire. Seriously? For a third annual event benefiting Parkland Regional Burn Center, surely there's better imagery to be conjured.
