Rather than regale you with the wry, sardonic and and semi-cynical prose for which he known, ELV thought he’d just let these snaps of Monday night’s James Beard Foundation Award ceremony and reception speak for themselves….mainly because he can’t think of anything wry, sardonic or cynical to say about the event.
More tasty snaps of his adventures in New York City will be forthcoming, if and when he can squeeze in some posting in between his gallivanting about Vegas Uncork’d for the next four days.

The farther you get off the ground, the old saying goes, the worse the food gets, with airplanes being the prime example. As someone who suffered through the revolving-restaurant craze of the late 1970s (and more than a few horrendous airline meals), I can attest to the accuracy of this maxim. And as someone who had dined at Top of the World several times after its opening in April 1996, I always thought it stood out as Exhibit A among earthbound examples.
