Something Delicious
 
Greetings,

Welcome to the Foodie Networking thread.

I thought that it would be fun to have a place where we could discuss all things and anything related to food, restaurants, ingredients, cooking tips, cravings, best of, worst ever and so on.

Have you been to a great little place that made the best "___" that you have ever had? Post about it.

Have you developed a taste for something new and delicious? Tell us about it.

Would you like to share tips or techniques for making something really good? Go for it.

Do you have a favorite childhood or family food memory to share?

Places to have general food discussion can be hard to find, so lets see what we can create here and have some fun while doing it.

Thank you, and Welcome!

Foodies! There is an awesome app called *Foodspotting*

You can take a pic of any dish at any restaurant and share them with other Foodies.

It's lots of fun and it's free!

YAY!!
 
We have launched! Yay!

Awesome! Glad to see you all jumping on board and look forward to getting to know some of you through these discussions.

Corkey I am going to be looking out for some of your tips and grill talk.

Cinnamongrrl, I don't bake, well, only if I have to. lol. So I too will look forward to learning in here.

easygoingfemme..some good Pho would be great right now! If it is a good soup, I love it. Asian soup..even better.

Cant wait to see what you all will bring to this thread!

Favourite food memories as a child: Being in my Baba's kitchen, pinching pyrohy and stirring steaming vats of jam.

Favourite food memory abroad: My first meal in Paris (my first meal outside Canada, in fact,) was a full fondue. It was the most interesting hybrid of a place, all of us reclining on chaises and finishing our meal with fruity shisha and surreptitiously refilled glasses of wine.

Favourite food memory under duress: After surgery last year, they wouldn't let me leave until I'd eaten. I stared disconsolately at the toast, which celiacs can't eat, and my mother went and bought those Chapman's ice cream cups. I ate two in a row, having fasted then for over 24 hours, and the nurse came in. Oh my goodness, they tasted so amazingly good, and I was still eating as she said, "You've eaten all that ice cream? You're going to be sick." I pointed my spoon at her in my drug haze and said, "You don't know me. I like to hang onto my food."

A clean and well oiled grill is a happy grill.

Hi Dee! Welcome!

Wow I am going to have to check out that app. How cool.

Love the pic. Never tried that! Now there is a good reason to cross the border!

Love your stories! This made me laugh out loud!

I truly pity anyone that would try to get between myself and my ice cream.

What kinds of jams did you like most as a child? Recalling that I adored jam when I was young.

So true. The next time that I grill for 100 people I am going to come looking for you. It all sounds fun until they all come back for seconds and my arms start getting grilled too! lol

I am a foodie in that I love to eat what other people cook! I don't like cooking. Maybe when I am retired. My sister loves to cook and is so good at it. She comes home from work and is so excited to get into the kitchen. She loves to cook for crowds. She loves to grocery shop. I hate it. Sigh. I will read and listen and hopefully get some inspiration. My family thanks you. I am, though, a good cook. Just see it as more a chore. I am cooking dinner right now.

I love to cook!

Problem is, I can only cook a few things other than my native Tex Mex cuisine--a little Italian, a little American comfort food--and I cannot document recipes because I was taught by my Guelita who didn't use measurements either...

That said, even if I follow a recipe I will modify it and hope for the best...lol...don't ask me why, maybe rebellious?

This is a great thread idea, Sun!

I could use a little sprucing up in the kitchen department.

I'm hoping to impress my guy with my skills...
In the KITCHEN!

I'm less of a foodie and more of an eater.

Looking forward to what everyone comes up with.

In the meantime, I used to love going to this restaurant when I lived in WA. They have their own brewery on site and made a most delish warm spinach salad, which I don't think they carry anymore. I'd be sad, except I'm not there anyway, so I'm not.

Hi Julie!

Yes cooking can be a chore and many people do not enjoy it. I love when someone cooks for me. That is by far one of my great joys in life. So what are you cooking?

Hi Gemme!

Wherever I go I can find a dish that I will enjoy and miss. Funny how many times spinach salad has come up as a topic in conversations with friends. Must be the dressing? A lot of people use bacon in the dressing. I do a spinach salad with soy, rice vinegar, fresh ginger, fresh garlic, a little toasted sesame oil and a little sugar. Then again I m in love with Asian flavors so that dressing could top many dishes and I would likely enjoy it!
