Studies have shown that dressing for success at the office helps create a good impression at work. But eating for success? An article at food site CHOW asks readers if eating leftovers at work creates a negative “upward mobility” impression.

Lucia wrote in to inform us here about an upcoming podcast taping:
I wanted to let you know about a food event/live show in the Bay Area
on April 17th in case you wanted to attend or were interested in writing
about it for your GrubGirl.
Entitled A Farmer, A Butcher, and a Chef walk into a Bar, it’s a live
taping of the podcast Get Smart Radio (www.getsmartradio.net), and this
month’s show is all about meat.

As a person who loves her fried meat or potatoes with a side of ranch or mayonnaise, this was an eye opener.
For you frequent business travelers, take note of this guilty pleasure:
