And Its Off to the Races

I am in motion. I have decided its time to quit talking about introducing people to my world of underground dining and instead create an intimate window into my life. I hope this becomes an accessible place for people interested in underground dining to actually take the leap and support these incredible ventures. The hope is that soon this will launch into a social network platform, taking the best from other "foodie" sites and bringing people together....underground.

So aside from my spiel, I will tell you a little about me. Me = 27 year old, attorney by trade, food explorer by night. I have spent countless hours, researching, scouting and day-dreaming about my next food adventure. I have been across oceans to celebrate dining (along with the obligatory museum and monument stops) and have many trips planned to bring my scene to you. I live in Berkeley, California, which I first thought of as a second city to San Francisco, but every day I come closer to the realization that the East Bay is where the scene is shifting.

I am doing this not only for myself, but also to support those underground hosts, be it professionally trained chefs to those who have the skillz in their bones. Some events have had that magic combination of electrifying environment/mind blowing food, while others cover one or the other to a greater degree. I will endeavor to bring these experiences to you. I will also along the way be spreading hype for what should be a sizable market in every city.

Lastly, I hope to create a running tab of all underground dining spots first in the continental United States, and then slowly build my international database. This will be a one stop shop for underground dining.

So, without further ado, Its Off to the Races!

    What qualifies as 'underground'?

  2. Basically anything that is behind closed doors. The whole thing is believed to have started in Buenos Aires called "closed door" restaurants.
