Drew Lazor is up for an AltWeekly Award

UPDATE: Both Holly and Drew won first-place honors!

Our very own Drew Lazor has been nominated in the 2011 AltWeekly Awards! He’s quite modest (he shuffles his feet and says "d'oh" when complimented), so I said I'd be honored to write it up. Three of Drew’s stories have been nominated in the "Food Writing" category of the awards, overseen by the Association of Alternative Newsweeklies (AAN). (CP staff writer Holly Otterbein was also nominated in the "Arts Feature" category.) Needless to say, we’re psyched for Drew and wish him the best of luck. (Winners will be announced later this month.) Here are the three stories CP submitted for consideration:

Waiting for Good Dough: If you think there's no good pizza in Philly, you're not looking hard enough. [22jul10]

Here Come The Rooster: A Central American eatery in a Mexican- and Vietnamese-dominated neighborhood is something to crow about. [21oct10]

Minette Men: Along for a ride to the James Beard House with Bistrot La Minette's Peter Woolsey. [30dec10]
