If you will notice #6 on the list of the most viewed articles in the NY Times Style Section today…That would be my post in Diner’s Journal. Also on the list…Mark Bittman at #2, Frank Bruni at #4 and #9, Kim Severson at # 7 and Sam Sifton at #8.
It may seem geeky but I think it’s pretty damn cool to be on any list with four of my favorite food writers. Pretty damn cool.


Your pictures are endlessly inspiring for those of us trying to take pictures of food. You surprise and delight with light and shadow, shape and color. Very glad to have found your website!
Thanks, Deana. You are a Giamportone from Staten Island, right?
Wait. Sorry, Deana. Think I had you mixed up with another Deana. My mistake.
Giamportone my Great Grandparents??
