Insider Profile
Birmingham
Nicole Rupersburg
One of Detroit's most prolific bloggers is also one of the city's biggest foodies, it turns out.
Aaron Alston
An successful entrepreneur, he takes advantage of much of what Birmingham has to offer. He goes everywhere,  from places low-key and relaxed to stylish and jam-packed.
Michael Geiger
A foodie with an actual culinary degree, he's got a license to be extra picky. He's also a DJ who spins everything from house to hip hop and more.
Patrick Thompson
At one point, the city guy/stylist/design guy type didn't think he could like the tony 'burb, but he's grown fond of his work locale despite himself.
