It’s really extraordinary and informational blog such a good thinking. It's on a different issue but it has pretty much the same design and layout.

Hi -
I'm working with a start-up for food bloggers in Maryland called Tabelog (www.tabelog.us). They're a subsidiary of the largest company in Japan Tabelog.com (similar to Yelp here in the US).
We’re bringing their annual restaurant awards to the US that are judged solely by a panel of local food bloggers (all online). The winning restaurants get a framed 2015 award and the food bloggers get an 'official judge' icons/etc. and related PR for their blog. We’re looking for bloggers from the Maryland area to invite as an official judge. Is this something that you would be interested in? My email address is awards@tabelog.us.

Thanks in advance!
Brock
