I joined the site Yelp.com shortly after it started in summer 2007 as part of an internship. I then didn’t use it for 3 years because I first went back to school in Eugene, Oregon, which didn’t have the review option, then immediately went to China where the site is not present at all. I recently started writing reviews again after much pressure from my good friend Aaron E. who has made many friends through Yelp.

Of course two of the first places I’ve reviewed are Chinese restaurants in Portland and Seattle. Check out my reviews for Portland’s Vegetarian House and Seattle’s Purple Dot Cafe. In both cases you have to scroll down to see my review.

Update 11/23/2010: For those of you visiting my blog’s Web site as opposed to experiencing it through RSS feed, you’ll notice I now have Yelp “bling” that shows off my East Asian Food Snob list. I plan to keep updating it as I try new restaurants and grocers.
