Welcome to Epicurean Musings

I'm a 20-something guy who enjoys food, drinks and visual arts. I live in Chicago, a city that offers great opportunities to explore these tastes. I'm also fortunate to travel a lot for work and fun and so I get chance to experiment in other cities.

Although I find rating sites such as Yelp useful, I prefer specific recommendations from human beings. I also find enjoyment in recommending people to something they'll like. That is why I started Epicurean Musings.

What to expect:

1. I will only write about experiences I find worthwhile; in other words, if I write about it, it's a recommendation
2. In an effort to keep entries concise, I will write a description of the experience and then the reasons why I liked it
3. I won't delve into details of prices; restaurants I visit tend to be under $40 a person with an appetizer and/or a drink
4. I'll be delighted to take recommendations, feel free to send via comment
5. At some point I will likely have guest writers. Rest assured, they'll have good taste :)

Welcome!
