As you may have noticed, my most recent post (and the first in forever, I know) has nothing to do with restaurants or movies. That’s going to be a trend here. I’m still planning on writing about movies and restaurants, but because I no longer have a good hook-up for comped meals, frequent restaurant reviews [...]

Take It From A Millennial: Stop Taking It Easy On the Millenials!

On my way home from work the other day, I was listening to the most recent episode of everybody’s favorite public radio show, This American Life (#402 - Save the Day), and a story about an long-running annual event at a small liberal arts school, stuck with me.
Each year, the school hosts what it calls [...]

Sorry for disappearing, but I’m back in action

For any of you that may have been worried about me, fear not. I’m alive and well in Chicago, IL. I’ve moved into a great apartment just a few blocks from Wrigley Field and have been working to get adjusted to my new surroundings and my new job at a major agency simultaneously. I’m going [...]

Lullaby of Broadway at McCrady’s

This past Sunday I had the opportunity to attend one of McCrady’s new “Sundays at McCrady’s” events which are mixing food with musical theater. Food highlights included a really outstanding popcorn soup with local shrimp, wonderfully tender beef with foraged mushrooms, and caramelized onion and brown butter risotto. While musical theater isn’t normally my cup [...]

Back in Action

Sorry I’ve been M.I.A. recently, I just returned from a week long spring break road trip.
However, I should have some more free time in the coming weeks, so I’ll get back in the swing of things very shortly.

Happy Belated Birthday to the Blog!

All,

What I might be most proud of is the fact that I’ve been able to stick with it. Though [...]

“David’s a rock star and his approach to his career is–in my [...]

Check out my “7 Personal Branding Tips for College Graduates” on the Personal Branding Blog

Call it shameless self-promotion, but I’m pretty proud of the guest post I wrote for personal branding expert Dan Schawbel’s Personal Branding Blog.
The post is titled “7 Personal Branding Tips for College Graduates” and is essentially my advice for other college students on how to begin differentiating themselves from the pack in order to secure [...]

A Brief Break From Food and Film

I know this is a food and film blog. I know you don’t come here for politics. That being said, I’m still going to post this video because I care too strongly about this year’s election to not promote the only candidate who I feel has the judgement and integrity to lead our country in [...]

DH Is Good is now DavidGHeiser.com

A little bit of site news for those of you who haven’t been by the blog in the past few days.
As I move toward graduation and the real world of jobs featuring paychecks with (hopefully) four columns left of the decimal point, I figured I needed to start making things a little bit more professional [...]
