Balance is the most important aspect of diet.

Every Wednesday (when Felicia isn't in California) we poke around the food blog world to see what's simmering.

--Mike Solomonov, who just opened Percy Street Barbecue yesterday, reveals his Philadelphia Diet to Grub Street. Not only does he share seared lamb belly with his entire kitchen staff, he sometimes eats mashed potatoes with his hands!

-- The Insider honors Sycamore BYOB chef Meg Votta, who passed away from ovarian cancer on Nov. 10, just two days before she was featured in a story in the Daily News about female executive chefs.

-- Do you know any "koodies"?� Adam Kuban takes a moment to eye-roll the new word for the food-obsessed children of smug, food-obsessed parents on Serious Eats.

-- PhilaDining reviews Koo Zee Doo, David Gilbert and Carla Goncalves' new venture in Northern Liberties that pays homage to Goncalves' Portuguese heritage.� In summary, he's pleased.

-- Mac & Cheese reminds us that it's not too late to order a pie from MANNA's Pie In The Sky fundraiser -- each pie sold funds the preparation and delivery of six meals to people living with HIV/AIDS.� Order on MANNA's Web site before Nov. 20.
