A New Experience Is Coming Soon

The Best Ceats was created as a hashtag written on a cocktail napkin - nothing more than a way to try and share local spots I loved with friends. Cut to now, and it has taken on a life of itself - my life. This isn’t some collection of random words anymore; it’s my brand - more than that, it’s me. As this has come to light in the past few years, I’ve changed greatly along with The Best Ceats. So, after years of uncertainty, imposter syndrome, scraping by to pay bills, and more, I know that now is the time to stop waiting for the brand to go somewhere - it’s already here. It’s more than words, a website, or social media - it is my life - an extension of who I am and what I believe. So, the time has come for me to show that to the world.

Coming in early 2025, you’ll see exactly what that is - what it can and will be. What the world around me is - the people, what they do and create, and why it is all so important and fantastic.

You can get a general idea of what’s to come in the drop-down menus here. In the meantime, please continue to enjoy The Best Ceats Podcast (linked above), and I’ll let you know when the remodel is finished and ready to welcome you home.

In the meantime - as always - live well, and often.

  • From humble farming to elegance, and everything in between my love for wine has exploded in the past few years. However, I think there is a vast void in the way wine and its stories are brought to people that I intend to fill. There are so many astounding products and people that are begging to be seen - I will make them shine brightest.

  • The bar world was the first one to embrace me, and it is one very near and dear to my heart. I always sit at the bar whenever I can and want to share my love for this space and its people. Nothing makes me sadder than a bad cocktail, and I intend to make sure no one ever has to suffer that again.

  • Staying put in one place is one of life’s greatest tragedies. Human beings need to travel - to explore and see the world and experience what this world has to offer. There is so much more to just writing another “travel” blog though. I’ve been fortunate enough to do a lot of traveling all over the world as of late, and I intend to share how and why you should too - all while drinking and eating in the best ways.

  • I live in Orange County, CA, and I’m very proud to call this place home. However, there is a serious lack of real hospitality coverage beyond your influencers and such. I want to change that - frankly speaking, I want people to give a shit about what is in their backyard, and celebrate it. When I get off a plane, or I’m home from being on the road, I know where to go and who to see to be happy, and I want everyone who calls this place home to do the same.
