Welcome to my new blog!  I’ll be your host on this wild ride of foodtastic exploration and culinary opinion.  You may call me Gourmet Grrl.  This blog will feature:

  • My restaurant reviews, most of them local to Asheville or places I travel
  •  Cooking hijinks and escapades, most of them from my kitchen
  •  Other Food Freak news, book reviews, or maybe even reviews of other food reviews

So, for your first food educational fun fact, please read this article on the 10th Annual Slow Food Festival in Turin, Italy.  This article is from the BBC World News and therefore accurate.  By reading this article you will learn how food can affect peace and social change.  Which I knew all along, of course.
