CHARITYWIRE — Edible Austin just announced the participating chefs for its 2013 Chef Auction with proceeds going to the Sustainable Food Center and Urban Roots. Not too many details yet other than that bidding starts in November, but get excited about the line up, which includes Mat Clouser and Callie Speer of Swift's Attic, Bryce Gilmore of Barley Swine, and Josh Watkins of The Carillon Restaurant.

QUIWIRE — Founder of Meatopia Josh Ozersky reports for Esquire's "Eat Like a Man" blog on his "bafflingly brilliant" experience at Qui (although he had his doubts). Ozersky fascinates on Qui's now famed brainstorm process and describes it and the food as "a mark of a restless, compulsive intellect, which can be a good thing or a bad one in a chef." [Esquire]
