dishing up interesting Seattle tidbits: home kitchen projects, traveling, local food
The Pacific Northwest has become my new home. Being new to Seattle, I decided to explore this fine city and learn about among other things, the food, neighborhoods, activities and culture found in the abundant wealth of local farm fresh and creative artistry.
I am a retired chef and the experience of “food” including where it comes from, how it is made or created, what was the inspiration behind the dish or item are just a few ways of looking at why and how eating has become such an identity for a lot of people. Although fine foods have played an important role in my professional life, it is the influence of the food culture i enjoy most. To eat something and express a simple yum, wow or other form of appreciation is only a small tip of the process that brought that moment to my taste buds. Like most people the moment you sit down and start to eat is what we all await. I want to go beyond that and into the journey.
I intend to bring to this blog the journey as it unfolds. I care about health, value, artistry, history, travel. In other words, i will hope to convey the complete journey of interesting and notable facts surrounding the simple art of food.
