JD Hovland is under the illusion that he suffers from a curse that guarantees he’ll most likely have a bad experience at a restaurant if he goes in the first 3 months of it being open. He dabbles in food writing and social media, usually ignoring trends and coming up with odd themes he can document. He’s ridden his motorcycle to all 49 continental state capitals, and is committed to roadtripping with his dog Nova to all 49 continental states. He lives in St. Paul, MN.

This site is his blog and he’s likely to write about anything that strikes his fancy. He might use bad words.
