In the past year or so, I’ve noticed an increase in the number of food resources/websites offering shorter entries and news updates. Perhaps it is the influence of Twitter, making 140 characters the preferred length of communication. People’s attention spans are shrinking, as is their patience in waiting for the latest and greatest information available. [...]

I was not planning on writing an entry for Pao Chow to post today (am still hammering out final details of my lengthier Credo entry to be posted later this week) but my dining experience deserves some quick attention.

The first stop of my Pao Pisco Pilgrimage was La Mar Cebicheria, the highly acclaimed Peruvian restaurant introduced to the Embarcadero by celebrity chef, Gaston Acurio. La Mar reminds me a bit of a large, noisy Vegas restaurant, only it has better food, tastier cocktails and an element of class. Vibrant blue-colored aesthetics flow [...]
