The idea for this weblog has been stewing and brewing around in my head for some time now. I originally thought it would be fun to write a book about my taste travels, and the spices I encountered along the way, but then I wrote Summer, and everything changed; I suddenly found myself writing about New England lobster rolls, as opposed to Vietnamese summer rolls, surf shack fish tacos, rather than green chile pork tacos. But I'm certainly not complaining, as I loved writing about my very favorite season, and the wonderful foods that go along with fresh air, abundant sunshine, outdoor cooking. Nope, no regrets here.
But I'm currently in publishing limbo, and find myself with some welcome free time on my hands, and so, I thought to myself "why not?" Why not take a stab at creating an online destination for foodies who love adding a bit of spice not only to their recipes, but to their lives as well. My goal is to explore as many global tastes as possible (ambitious yes, but I do live in New York, so not impossible) and to translate those experiences into an inspiring culinary destination.
As those who know me well will sagely concur, there will most definitely be bumps, and potholes, and construction signs along this road I'm planning to travel, but that--without saying--is half the fun. For it's only when you ignore the road blocks, and veer off that well-worn, heavily-trodden path, that you somehow, without a moments planning, stumble upon the best meal of your life. I invite you to join me on my journey.
