Two very exciting and cool events coming up here on the blog. First off, I’m hosting the May Restaurant Review 360 event. First hosted last month on Herbivoracious, this means that a whole slew of us Seattle area food bloggers all review the same restaurant, then I’ll round them up and post an overview of the reviews. I’m very excited to take on the event, and have chosen Jasmine Provincial Vietnamese Restaurant. It is relatively new and has recieved complimentary reviews, so I think it fits as a candidate.
Bloggers: All you’ve got to do is review this restaurant by May 20th and link back to this post and I’ll get you included on the event. If you have any questions, you can leave a comment or find my info under “about”.
The First SFBA: What? You don’t know about the SFBA?? Ha! That’s because I just invented it! No, seriously I was thinking of all the great Seattle food blogs I read and how I wish there was a way to honor the best posts and bloggers who are really doing great work for the local food blog community. It is the Seattle Food Blogger Award. I had previously commented that Keren over at Frantic Foodie does great work with her food blogger dinners and the folks over at MSG150 are doing with their round up of the ID. So now I’ve instituted a new monthly feature here, and I’m kicking it off a day early so it coincides with the Restaurant Review 360. Why? Because the first award is going to Herbivoracious for the starting of the Restaurant Review 360.
Thanks, Herbivoracious, for providing Seattle food bloggers a way to connect with each other and get to know each others’ views of the same stuff, all on their own schedule. It is fun, informative and very cool. The very first Seattle Food Blogger Award goes to you!

Count me in Naomi. This will be fun.
Thanks for the SFBA !! I’m definitely participating in the 360. My daughter and I ate there today. I’ll wait to put up the review closer to the deadline. Can’t wait to see what everyone else thought too.
To Whom it May Concern,
Count me in on this contest. You can read my review of Jasmine here.
Sincerely,
Your friend the Surly Motherfucking Gourmand
