food-related things that i'm currently obsessing over whether it be places to try, recipes, or food icons.
Thanks to my friend Phil, I’ve become a little obsessed with Adam Roberts and his food blog, The Amateur Gourmet. The draw was obvious:
I live in Park Slope, he lives in Park Slope.
I’m a food blogger, he is an established food blogger.
The list goes on and soon enough, I found myself reading his book with the same title, The Amateur Gourmet.
It’s a quick, entertaining read and makes you realize that you should try eating the things you hate since your taste buds are always evolving, cooking really isn’t that hard and most importantly food simply tastes good so just enjoy it. I found myself making Pasta with Pesto after reading his chapter Master the Market, with some help from Russo’s of course.
