One of my favorite Twitter buds, and local to St. Louis, @KBestOliver, is now the Novice Foodie for the Riverfront Times. In her new role, she’ll be blogging about her food experiences. As the title implies, she’s bringing a fresh face and open mind, not to say mouth, to food reporting.
Her latest article, The Novice Foodie Experiences the St. Louis Food & Wine Experience, should have been titled, Novice Foodie versus St. Louis Food & Wine Experience. Kelli shares her honest surprise that the wine side of the event was more focused on than the food. Not to say she didn’t eat anything. Far from it, but to note she doesn’t mention one special or unique dish served.
The funniest part for me was her mentioning about spitting. If you’re in the know about wine tasting, spitting is what keeps you mostly sober. Gary Vaynerchuk made spitting and wine spittoons something ordinary folks talk about. Apparently Kelli missed the etiquette lessons. This made for discomfort on her part and laughter on ours.
I encourage you to show your support for Kelli’s food blogging adventures by reading her latest article and leaving a comment.
