Food porn for Gridskippers

Friend Erik D’Amato, founder of the snarky and brilliant pesticide.hu, is guest-editing Gridskipper this week. One of the new properties of the ever-expanding Gawker media empire, Gridskipper appears to be targetted at a demographic/psychographic that includes me: frequent global travellers who hop between cosmopolitan cities. (Unfortunately the site doesn’t seem to include either the Berkshires or West Africa…)

I sent Erik the review I wrote for an email list of friends and family of commerç 24 in Barcelona, which I’ve referred to as “food porn”. And while I’m embarrased to admit in public that I’ve paid 100 euros for dinner – and smiled while doing it – I’m happy to have Gridskipper in my aggregator, as it’s already giving me tips for forthcoming trips to Cape Town and London.
