I've analyzed this for you, Dom, so you don't have to: this is very cool. Congrats.

[matthew]

Congratulations Dom. Very well deserved nomination. Good luck!

Congratulations! Seriously good blog. Been following for years since the Ted Allen referral. I don't even consider myself a foodie, but the photos and writing keep me reading. Well-deserved recognition for so much obvious passion and dedication.

[Sweet Sue]

Congratulations and the nom is well deserved as would be a win.

[Independent George]

Congratulations, Dom. I hope you win.

BTW, you should probably correct your caption (unless, besides the talents we already know about, you are also a time traveler)...

[Skillet Doux]

IG... duly corrected... thanks!

And thanks for the congrats, all. Still processing. In need of something intelligent to say and not finding it (shocking, I know).

[SinoSoul]

congrats Dom! Love the fact there are people publicly bitchin' for not making the noms... Geezus H...

[Sheila]

Congratulations! Definitely well deserved.

[Kilgore Trout]

I don't comment all that much, but I did want to chime in and say congratulations. Top Chef is what drew me in, but I enjoy reading every one of your posts, even if the restaurants you are talking about are a couple thousand miles away. Keep up the good work.

Richly deserved, Dom. You probably don't have the traffic of some of the other contenders, but the quality is always there.

[Karen B]

congrats, and very well deserved!

[Anon Man]

Very cool, Dom. I think the nomination in the restaurant review category is especially great, since its clearly an area in which you take great pride.

So, when's the pay wall go up? (ducking...)

[jse91]

Yea! Congratulations.

Congrats, Dom. Well deserved.
They knew what they were doing - I joined Saveur just now solely to vote for you.

Dom,
That is so wonderful! I have never commented on your blog before, but been a faithful follower since Ted Allen pointed out your blog on his TC blog.
While I live no where near Phoenix or Baltimore, I still read all your reviews for just the way you described the food. I enjoyed that you were willing to say that too many ingredients/flavours do not always make for a better tasting dish. I am a little biased because I thorougly enjoy Asian food and like that you cover that genre. Congratulations and I hope you win.

[Jon Olsen]

Woop woop!

[paula]

I second the "woop woop" and raise you a "HOLLA!"

[John Takis]

Emerging from long-time lurking status to say CONGRATULATIONS, Dom! I first came to this site from a link on a M.I. page, and at the time, I thought of you as a voiceover artist who happened to do a food blog. Now, it's become hard not to think of you the other way around! This place has become a regular destination, and an essential part of my Top Chef viewing experience (missing your commentary on TC: Canada)! Once again, congrats -- the nomination is well-deserved!

[Megan H.]

I also joined Saveur just to vote for you. Congratulations!

[Angie]

Congratulations, Dom, on a very well deserved honor !

[Orodemniades]

Congrats!
