In fact, I love them so much, I created the definitive guide for maximizing your hotel brunch buffet. <—- click over there to read it This past weekend, I had the pleasure of being invited to explore the Ojai…
You want to brunch, son? You want to buffet like a baller? Then drop the soup and listen to me. I’ve been hitting hotel brunch buffets since Justin Bieber was in short pants (he still is, though, right?). I know the secrets of the steam trays. I’m cool with the curiosities of carving stations. I’m…
If you believe the hype surround the NH hotels, you probably believe they have the best breakfast of any hotel chain in the world. So… do they? I’ve been staying at the NH Collection EuroBuilding Hotel in Madrid and so far the answer is: kind of. It’s nearly impossible to say who has the best…
Vegas is a buffet town. When 99-cent all-you-can-eat options disappeared along with the Sahara, the luxury buffet took hold and now diners are paying upwards of $20 per person just for breakfast. The Bellagio Buffet, The Buffet at Wynn, The Wicked Spoon at the Cosmopolitan, and the newly renovated Bacchanal Buffet at Caesars Palace have…
Let’s be honest: if your hotel buffet doesn’t have a waffle iron, it’s not really trying.

It’s been a while since I’ve been to a proper hotel lounge. I don’t know about you, but I love hotel lounges. Who needs a cash minibar when you have a well-appointed room with a free real bar? As much as I love hanging out in hotel rooms, I love having the option to go…
If you’re trying to save yourself some calories and fit into a dress/suit/chicken costume for a wedding, you can’t necessarily indulge in everything you’d like to be eating. The same can’t be said for my life. As a professional food writer, it’s my job to check out the latest and greatest wherever I am and…
I’ve never had a great relationship with Indian food. Like Americanized Chinese, the Indian food I was exposed to earlier in my life always seemed over-spiced, over-sauced, and just plain unappetizing. Granted, the Indian food I tried (or, more accurately, avoided) came from low-end take-out shops or buffet joints where the quality of the food…
In terms of ultimate luxuries in life, the list goes: Taking a bath in chocolate pudding Eating hot dogs at a cookout Ordering room service There’s just something about having a full meal delivered to your room, complete with a white tablecloth, silver domes (fun fact: they’re called cloches), and tiny bottles of condiments. It…
