Welcome, Welcome. Come on in.

Oh, hello there, sailor. Welcome to Gut Instinct, wherein I, inveterate glutton and mild dispomaniac Joshua M. Bernstein, will post his published food and drink articles, along with a smattering of whatever effluvia floats into my brain. I am often hungry. I am often thirsty. And I'm often surly and willing to stick my neck (and sweet, sweet mouth) where it doesn't belong. This will make for stories equally cringe-worthy and exciting! I hope. Or I'll soon be out of a job, and back to temping as a receptionist, losing calls as frequently as I do my dignity. Don't expect daily updates, or pictures featuring puppy dogs, but do expect posts and articles that will nourish your mind and make your belly grumble—or put you off your lunch forever.
