Pix and what-I-ate list: Taste of Arlington 2010
What I ate, in order: crabcake, Carlyle; chocolate cupcake with toffee-buttercream frosting, Best Buns; corn and tomato gazpachos, Italian bread with tomato topping, Domaso Trattoria; cab franc, Tarara; ribs; Liberty Tavern; soup, Tallula; chocolate pastry, Northside Social; pasta cup, Caesar salad, sorbet, Pinzimini; and a glass of Charval, Tarara.
It wasn't as much fun as last year when crowds of people I knew were pretty much falling from the trees, even if the rain was falling too. But it was great to run into Kim and Ruben, and I did manage to blitz spots I wanted and get some decent pictures. Notes on what's below: Ted's Montana Grill, I'm sorry. You can't hurt the best burger in a Ray's town. NYT, way to show up. Food judges, I was jealous. Pig man — no idea.
