Smith: Looks Great, Less Filling

By Jason Sheehan | Wed, September 29, 2010

Many years ago, I was a young cook, still making my bones on the prep side of the line. I cut meat, ran my knife through hundreds of cases of mushrooms, babysat demis like a mother sitting up with a sick child, and stood there in front of my board... More »
Robert Plant and English Breakfasts at Smith

By Jason Sheehan | Tue, September 28, 2010

"I like Smith the minute I step through the doors. It's dark and rough around the edges, sparsely decorated with taxidermied animals and portraits of garage sale quality, and looks, for all the world,... More »
