As a student of the Culinary Arts, it is almost mandatory that I become a pretentious food snob. Its a natural side effect of constantly studying food, cooking food, discussing food. Basically, my life is food, so I should of course have some standards when ever I'm around food.
Everywhere I go, I'm critiquing the food, the atmosphere, the garnish, the service. Whenever I'm cooking, I'm tearing my food apart, analyzing what could have been better. Where my ingredients the best I could have used? Were the flavors blended at their best? My mind is always racing. It never ends. Most of the time I'm satisfied. I'm not excited but my cooking, the restaurant, the food, it passes. Sometimes there are disasters. But every so often, something amazing happens with the food. I'm always looking for this pinnacle of existence, the peak of culinary. I'm looking for the next foodgasm.
This blog is my quest to find these foodgasms. If its food, I'll (hopefully) write about it. Books, restaurants, ingredients, chefs, schools, all of it. And of course recipes. Lots of recipes. Lets see what happens.
