Welcome to Epicurean Ottawa!
Candice and I spend a lot of time thinking about food and even occasionally writing about it, but our Livejournals and the community we maintain there never really seemed like the right place to start writing in-depth about our foodie experiences and experiments.
Some time I registered the epicureanottawa.com domain name to use up a free domain registration I had, and recently we decided that we might as well use it to chronicle our food adventures around town. We’ll be posting a little of everything — restaurant reviews, cooking adventures at home, posts about wine and other drinks, recipes, local food shopping, and whatever else comes to mind. Who knows where we’ll end up?
Thanks for stopping by! Real food-related content will be showing up real soon. Let us know what you think!
