In those sultry, late-August days before I started eating for a living, Westword‘s former Cafe critics offered advice on how I should handle my new position. Kyle Wagner, now travel editor of the Denver Post, suggested I tell people I’m a pet sitter, because otherwise I’ll spend every minute of every cocktail party answering this question: “What’s your favorite restaurant?” (She was right.)
