Art Rocks! Bites: A Critic at Large dines and wines on art and avoids the snails.



Art Rocks!


"L'addition s'il vous plait Monsieur!"
Ah yes, fine dining and good wine at the Bleu Boheme restaurant (Kensington) the other night, having been invited by the Art Rocks! dynamic duo of talk show internet radio fame: Philly Joe Swendoza and Ally Bling Bling aka "The Fashion Pirate" and friend Joan Seifried, to test drive the restaurant's French cuisine and European charm. Except for the extremely small portions of fromage and charcuterie and a waitress much to eager to serve - a crash course in respectfully ignoring the client à la the bistro style in France could be of great use here - it was a pleasurable dining experience of food and conversation.

The Art Rocks! Bites portion of the one half hour live broadcast (worldwide) was conducted here in San Diego at the ws radio station under the auspices of Philly and Ally. Future bites or chewing will feature weekly culinary reviews of local and out of town eating establishments by Philly, Ally and their subsequent invited dinner guests, and later recorded as was our experience at the Bleu Boheme for future prosperity. Our largely unanimous "thumbs up" review can be heard by clicking on the link below. A link for our mobile podcasters is also available for download. Other than one or two extra "uhh's and err's" in my debut radio appearance and the annoying habit of "The Pirate" cutting me off in mid-sentence, I had a great time. I hope you'll have as much by taking a listen. KF
