Behind the Pass

I write about things that interest me, which usually means food is involved.

@TheChowfather @tomcolicchio Sorry, there was nothing negative in what he wrote. Someone asked a question, and he basically just answered it. 🤷🏽‍♂️

@tomcolicchio Logic is the enemy here, Chef.

@AMAZlNGNATURE All just to prove how "awesome" humans are. 🙄

Looking back at a journey started in 2012, my first interview was w/ Jaime Bissonnette just after his first
@beardfoundation nomination. He’s since started fresh, opening all new spots in Boston. Hoping to have new interviews to share in 2025!

@amateurgourmet Can confirm.

@altonbrown That sounds worth reading to me! Hopefully the take on both is positive. 😆

Thinking of waking up this old account and diving back in to the food world… I’ve been missing it desperately.

Curious to see if the brilliant minds at @MASchoolsK12 who threatened to remove funding from districts if they offered remote learning will do the same for mask mandates. Show us how you really feel about the kids. @MassGovernor @MassEducation

A question to any restaurants/chefs in the US willing to respond - what reservation system do you/have you used? Which do you prefer?

Such a shame. 😢 Sorry to hear this @AlexRSaenz.

It’s official �� Permanently Closed. We lost our beautiful little Taquería. We tried. I’m sorry. I honestly don’t have the right words to say what I need to say. It never got a chance 💔 The taquería team will be @bisqcambridge for the next 2 weeks. Buenas noches 1022 Comm Ave

@carrollclc @KPlows What a ridiculous reply. The kid showed a little compassion and empathy for a teacher, and the teacher was moved by it and wanted to share. Douchebag down a little.

Back when I was writing I got to meet, interview, and even have lunch with Josh Lewin. He’s a good chef, and a voice worth listening to in the food industry. #Foodie #food #restaurants #Boston

Seeing a lot of stories about the fine line between discipline and abuse in the workplace, and specifically kitchens. Some of these stories relying on the narrative of military comparison and “drill instructor like bosses”

A few of my friends are teachers & I’ve watched their conversations. Here’s a teacher’s thread that’s been going around:

If a teacher tests positive for COVID-19, are they required to quarantine for 2-3 weeks? Is their sick leave covered, paid?

So can we stop talking crap about him now?

Guy Fieri has helped raise $21.3 million for restaurant workers, which will send a $500 check to more than 40,000 people. https://t.co/vUNqGuBEE5

One of those mornings... #saudades #restaurants #Portugal (from @NunoViajante’s cookbook, My Lisbon, Photo by Andrew Montgomery).

I need to start cooking more Portuguese food. 🥴

@wdgilson If you can pick out the ninja in the first place, are they REALLY a ninja? #liveintheshadows

@HughAcheson Open. Noisy. Full. Everything as it should be.

@AlexRSaenz Sorry to hear it. The system is broken... 😔

Feeling nostalgic this morning, and missing all the amazing folks I had a chance to speak with over the years. Hoping against hope that you all find a safe way through the mess that the world is now. You deserve so much better than this. Be safe. #restaurants #missyou

When this is all said and done, the amount of money I’m going to spend at MA restaurants and bars for following 2-3 months is going to be astronomical. Piss off, #COVID19! #StayAtHome
