but I will totally toot my own horn here. It looks like some of the local “amateur” food writers (for “some,” read “mostly me”) have gotten the attention of the 2nd stream media and prompted a spread in October’s issue of “Sacramento” magazine. Yes, that’s me, in the very large picture, uh huh, totally me, media whore.
It’s only a matter of time before we get a series of certifications on the doors of local eateries reading “Sacrag Certified: Sac-eats says…” We’re working on it.

I’ll work on a “Sac Eats Certified” certificate that can be sent to local eateries — is there an official Sac Rag stamp of approval?

Congratulations on making the Sacramento “magazine”, but doesn’t it sort go against the spirit of being a food reviewer when the restaurant folks can recognize you (if that’s really you in the photo)?
This has always been my beef with the Sacramento “magazine” Dining Divas — they show their pictures.

Sac-eats saw his reflection in a bowl of Thai soup and fell in love.

Yes, I would like to address commenter “norm”… Mr. Sabin in the picture is wearing glasses. Clearly “sac-eats” does not wear glasses and thus would never be confused for Mr. Sabin. This is just common sense.

imagine how much grief it would have saved Basil if he had known what the food critic looked like!

I’ll also say that since the owners/operators of many of the restaurants I frequent have only a passing familiarity with English, they’re probably not frequent Sacramento Magazine readers.
