My First Post!

Welcome to my first blog! First and foremost, I love Food! The culture, the people, the restaurants, the location, the experience...pretty much anything food-related (hence the blog title description).

Coming from an Indian background, born and raised in and out of the states, which I won’t bore you with the nitty gritty details (just yet!) I graduated from a university in CA, a couple of years ago and currently work at Novatel Wireless in Sales & Marketing - a wireless tech company HQ'd in San Diego.

I am taking a course - Marketing Via New Media taught by Becky Carroll (blog master), in which she has prompted us to start a blog of our own, something I have been contemplating for quite sometime now. It took me sometime in deciding what I wanted to write about as I thought to myself and analyzed my interests, weekend activities, favorite movies, books and so on, my mind started to wander as my stomach growled, and realized that was it, it was perfect - FOOD. Something we all have in common!

I have done some traveling this year and will be posting photos and excerpts from my travel journal...but essentially I intend this to be a food blog - foods I have cooked and not cooked; restaurants worth writing about; the influence of culture and lastly share some of my personal recipes (okayyyy..maybe they are my mother's recipes). I hope to post a few times a week, do check back regularly and i would love to hear your thoughts.

I look forward to sharing my food stories with you.

Happy Grubbing!
