About me

Introduction I'm a mid-twenties New York lawyer with no desire to practice law. I'm a foodie, amateur chef, faux gourmet, avid reader, and connoisseur of all things culinary. I'll try any food at least once -- what's life without the fun? I'm a classically trained chef from an exclusive school -- MIMK, otherwise known as "My Italian Mother's Kitchen". The rest of my culinary "expertise" has come from eating, reading, cooking and watching TV. While I've read blogs for a number of years, and actually had a blog during law school, for some reason I didn't think about the fact that there would be a plethora of food blogs out there. Over the last few months I found a number of food blogs that I really like, which are represented on my side bar. As I said, I'm an avid reader, and have started reading food books more and more. I'll have links to the various food books on my bookshelf on the side as well. I love to entertain and create gourmet meals for others, including my girlfriend. As a note, my girlfriend has some professional food experience -- she use to do catering -- and we're considering going into the catering business together.
