First off.

My name is Chris and I'm the chef at a little restaurant in Richmond,VA called Ipanema Cafe. I was going to start a blog about my food and all food related things, but decided to just use this to write about random things (including food) like I used to years ago before blogs were around.
For example this morning I woke up to the sound of some asshole on a megaphone screaming at marathon runners to "run" for over an hour. I'm pretty sure they had the hang of it by then, thanks buddy.
Pretty much I just need a place to write down random thoughts every now and then. This should do.
