  • Ponzu Citrus Marinade.  And some other things. He told me his recipe and I was all [head tilt] Huh?  It's an Asian ingredients inspired cocktail that he calls Art of War.The top 2 places get their recipes published in Cheers magazine, which is a big deal in the industry.  Also the judges themselves are incredibly well know people.  One is the liquor guy from Esquire or GQ (I can't remember which) that's been on Colbert Show making his Colbert Cocktail.  Another one is Doug Frost, who's kinda the Robert Parker of the Midwest.  It's really a big deal and he's the only noob in the event.  I'm crossing all crossables for him, b/c I think he has a great chance (I'm TOTALLY biased) and it's be an amazing opportunity for him.
  • That sounds like I'd like it, I hope he wins so I can get the recipe. That sounds super exciting!!

  • "It's an Asian ingredients inspired cocktail that he calls Art of War."That is an awesome name for a cocktail.
  • He called me to fill me in on the details and told me what he was wearing.  He's trying to find a charcoal gray vest, but he was moaning that they're all for skinny people right now.  :)But, the one he found he liked and fit, he couldn't use.  B/c it had a Buddha on the back.  He didn't think the Buddha + Art of War, was the best idea.  :)
