Food Lover's Guide to Portland Blog...

began as a collection of some of the research, recipes, images and culinary adventures that went into the making of Food Lover’s Guide to Portland. The first edition came out in 2010 and I started the blog in February 2009 as a companion piece to it and to help organize my thoughts while researching and writing it. The second edition came out in September 2014 from Hawthorne Books. The blog is now home to all different food, drink and beyond things I want to show and tell.

I’m also co-author of Fermenter: DIY Fermentation for Vegan Fare, author of Dumplings Equal Love, co-author of Toro Bravo: Stories. Recipes. No Bull from McSweeney’s, as well as Hello! My Name is Tasty: Global Diner Favorites from Portland’s Tasty Restaurants from Sasquatch Books and Grow Your Own: Understanding, Cultivating, and Enjoying Cannabis from Tin House Books.

I didn’t think I’d like blogging when I first started this, but it turns out I really do, mostly because I get to shout out people and things that I love.

Save the best for last. The last recipe that we tested for the book was this paella. My feet are on the right, John's are on the left and we're about to dig in with the Toro staff...

For Your Viewing Pleasure Pt. 8

January 23, 2013 in John Gorham, McSweeney's, Toro Bravo, Toro Bravo Cookbook, Uncategorized

I really will get back to more regular blog posting at some point but it's just happened to be one of those things that's gotten a little bit of the boot during the past several chock-full months. These are always fun ones to do though because they're quick to put up and give you a little eye candy. We're still busy at work on the Toro Bravo Cookbook due out from McSweeney's fall 2013. I took this photo in November during our last major recipe testing day. We'll still continue to test right up until the book goes to print but this was our last big push for formal testing. I wish you could have tried this house paella. Perfect.
