I love LA. And the only reason I say that is to get myself seriously psyched for my big move next month. Sure, call me NYC-jaded but LA needs to pull a fast one on winning me over (again, I’m NYC-jaded). Maybe I’m preparing myself for the worst, considering I have a ten-year loving relationship [...]
Nacho Mama’s in Richmond, Virginia, serves up some mean Mexican, and owner Raul Cantu himself is a hot tamale. One of the city’s best trendsetters (he made the cover of Richmond’s first gay glossy, G Magazine!), Raul is the man on the go, and you’ll most likely run into him at any highbrow (or, ahem, lowbrow) [...]
Move over, Atlanta. Richmond, VA is coming out of the closet, faster than a redneck can hoist shotgun on shoulder. It’s true: Richmond has been making great gay strides to lure the gay traveler in the South and not because they need the pink dollar. The city has been thriving for the gay community for [...]
If you haven’t seen the movie Lincoln yet, you’re missing a fine Joseph Gordon Levitt, not to mention a plausible Daniel Day Lewis as the former president. And we can’t forget gay icon Sally Field, or any of those soldier extras that graced the big scene. Anyway, I actually visited Richmond, Virginia, a month before [...]
Hilton Head is a tiny island in South Carolina where rich, white men and women congregate for some sun, golf and quiet time on the beach. They wear polos, visors and really loud (color-wise) khaki shorts. It’s like an 80s movie, in the best way possible. I had a quick visit with friends last month, thinking [...]
Having grown up in Georgia until I was 18, I’m ashamed to admit I never got around to visiting Savannah until now. The quiet city known for romantic B&Bs, a terrific art scene and good and evil is also home to Paula Deen. She obviously needs no introduction to the gays, and her signature restaurant [...]
Savannah, Georgia may have seen an upswing with celebrity sightings this year but the art scene will always be making headlines, thanks to SCAD (Savannah College of Art and Design) and the number of artists that make the sleepy city their home. Furthermore, designer Marc Jacobs was so inspired, he set up shop here five years ago [...]
Don’t have time to venture to Southeast Asia? Watch this clip and explore Singapore right from the comfort of your very own bed. This is everything you NEED to see, the exquisite Raffles hotel, delicious Hainese chicken rice, me making a Singapore Sling at Long Bar at Raffles hotel (where the cocktail was created) Hunter [...]
On my last visit to Boulder (the city that invented Crocs, skews organic and offers miles and miles of outdoor space for tree-hugging locals), there was hype around a new brand of granola on the market. Granola (as in the stuff you eat, not the people you make fun of and I’m only making that [...]
