It started as a lark. A local poster on Craigslist, a woman named Kitty sent out a notice on the list's Women Seek Women personals board inviting local women to meet at a restaurant for cuisine and camarderie. The rest is history. Foodies was born. What began a casual dinner for a handful has bloomed into an e-mail list of more than 1,000 and weekly events that range from casual meet-ups at coffeehouses to elaborate exclusives coordinated with restaurants way in advance. For a town so gay-friendly and ripe with women who love women, the lack of a consistent social spot where lesbians can call home is a mystery. Finally: Foodies. Finally, a place for women who love women who love food!
