I built EatAroundOKC.com about a year ago as a place to post my very own reviews about Oklahoma City Restaurants. It was sort of a learning lab for me as it was the first website I ever designed and cutup with XHTML/CSS. Also, it was the first site I ever integrated onto Wordpress. Well, in fact, it was the first time I ever used Wordpress, or any blogging software for that matter.

Anyway, I had high hopes of writing lots of restaurant reviews about Oklahoma City restaurants. I got a few up there, and then a whole lot of months passed by without a single post.

But recently, my friend Andrew starting writing about Oklahoma City restaurants on a blogger blog he set up. I found his articles to be quite entertaining, and I asked him if he would like to post them on EatAroundOKC instead because, after all, he could be hugely famous this way since my site is so well known. Anyway, he agreed and so with renewed enthusiasm we bring you the all new and improved EatAroundOKC.com, your guide to restaurants in Oklahoma City, at least the ones where we’ve eaten.

What is new and improved you might ask? Well, primarily the fact that there will (hopefully) be regular posts now. We’ve even started a new monthly series — the “Shady restaurant of the month.” I’ll be refraining from posting any restaurant reviews here on DailyGenesis in lieu of putting them up over at the new site. In fact, you’ll probably notice a few from the DG archives being ported over to EatAroundOKC. Please subscribe to EatAroundOKC so you can keep up with everything.

We’re also opening it up to outside reviewers. We’d love to find some other Oklahoma City people who like to eat and like to write and would submit articles to help build up our restaurant portfolio. They, too, can be made famous if we choose to publish them on EatAroundOKC.

So help us spread the word. It’s not like we’re going to make any money off of this, but it is a fun little project and I think it could be a handy resource for Oklahoma City. My goal is simply that one day, some restaurant somewhere will comp us a meal in order to get us to write about them. Then, it will all be worth it.
