Crispy on the Outside » About.pngFolks, after much preparation, I’m happy to pull back the covers on my latest web venture: crispyontheoutside.com. It is an irreverent food blog authored by my good friend Baylen Linnekin. Its focus will be the delicious underbelly of the food world, with a special emphasis on outlawed foods and unconventional tastes. Just now Baylen posted this breaking story:

Gordon Ramsay quietly closed his second restaurant in six months over the weekend. Problems at La Noisette seemed to center more on the space than the food. With the closing, he also loses one of his dozen Michelins, and further shifts the focus of his empire to a more mid-market clientele. …

The shutdown was abrupt, and as of 2pm EDT, La Noisette — though most of their website was shuttered to all but the Google cache — was still accepting reservations. (I reserved online for today, and received immediate confirmation that “a member of our team will contact you shortly.”)

A favorite feature is “This Week in Bacon,” and great posts so far include “Pigs Shudder in Blankets During Cooks’ IHOP Knife Fight” and “McFlurry of Activity Shows Amy Winehouse Can’t Get off the Sauce.” Awesome.

Please check it out. I’d love to hear your comments. Also feel free to subscribe to the RSS feed. And we would be so grateful if your would write it up on your blog.
