My parents didn’t drink, gamble or do drugs. Their vices were traveling and eating well. And so the allure was handed down. I will, as the name of my blog suggests, pretty much eat anything.
I’m partial to meats but will suffer fruits and vegetables.
I originally started this blog because I would take pictures of food while traveling and then come home and wonder what to do with them all. It’s a part chronicle to amuse myself and a part guide to share the foods and sights I’ve encountered from around the world.
It’s evolved now to include restaurant reviews closer to home (Calgary) because sadly, I can’t travel all the time.
My day job is in media, usually detailing death and destruction, so this is a bit of a respite.
I’ve been asked why I don’t write about recipes or cooking. It’s not that I don’t love to cook, but there are far too many blogs that cover that much better than I ever could.
I dedicate this to people who love to eat, and find art in their meals. If this blog piques your interest at least once, then I’m happy as a goldfish that eats til it explodes.
I use an ancient Casio Exilim EX Z3 3.2 megapixel point-and-shoot, and am learning slowly but surely to master my Canon EOS Rebel XTi.

Wow. Delicious pictures! You captured the art of the meal perfectly with all your shots. And I love reading your comments, straight and to the point.
I live in Vancouver and will definitely check out the Shiru Bay izakaya in Yaletown. The Cambodian restaurant was part of my childhood too, love that dry noodle bowl
Keep up the good work.

This is a great site. Your write ups are terrific.

Really love your blog.
I am originally from Edmonton, but have recently lived in Toronto and most recently Vancouver. It’s cool seeing some of my favorite restaurants covered here.
Exploring a new city is a wonderful adventure. I’ve learned that the places you dine at are a huge part of that adventure. At the same time, nothing triggers nostalgia like dining at an old-favorite.
I think you really capture these emotions well in your blog. And, at the same time, serve up a really appetizing guide for people wanting to discover new eats.
Keep it up!

I stumbled across your site. Nice work. We are doing a similar thing here in Calgary but solely with Indian Restaurants. Check out our site at http://www.dodgycurry.ca and keep up the great work. I’ll be sure to keep reading.

I see my partner beat me to commenting. I really like the site.
We should all get together for a great big crossover review or two. One on your turf and one at one of our fave curry joints that you may not have visited.
It would be just like when Muhammad Ali and Superman teamed up to save the world and then faced off in a boxing match. But with food.
(thanks for the link-up, if we ever put a links section on the site you’ll be right at the top.)

BRILLIANT!

Great website. I’m very glad I managed to find your blog. There are many places listed here in Calgary that I’ll have to check out now!
November 17th, 2008 at 8:10 am
I’ve made it a point to come back here regularly to see if you have posted anything in Vancouver (my hometown) and have been to Saving Grace in Toronto on your recommendation. That was awesome eats, so thanks for that! I’ll be making a stop there in three weeks because it’s my new favourite place to visit in TO.
Happy Eats!

Just discovered your site…. so glad you wrote so fully and accurately about my favourite place - Priddis - favourite store -Collatio - and favourite entrepreneur - Debra. Must check your other
blogs and pics on food. But thanks for this.

This blog inspired the food lover inside of me, and so I started blogging a little bit about the food I really enjoyed on a recent outing to the west coast. I’m not exactly a food-type expert, but it was fun to try blogging about something new. You can check out the posts on my geoblog (http://ryancheung.com/geoblog/)
