Hi!
I attended the picnic this week at the insistence of Kate M., and had a great time. Previously, I'd limited my activities to lurking and checking out the restaurant reviews
About me: I'm old (28), crotchety (at least until I can figure out how to fix my profile pic), and I live in Del Ray (incidentally, I'm looking for a roommate). I can cook well enough, and I spend basically all of my discretionary income on food. I like to eat in places with questionable food safety standards. I will drink all your Scotch at the first opportunity.
Regarding my connection to the industry, I'm a shareholder in Cajun Experience, which just recently opened a new sub-street level restaurant near Dupont.
I'm looking forward to participating more at DR!
