Hello there.  I’m Lokate.  I’m excited to share my thoughts about food.  I have been eating food for about twenty four years now.  I’m ready to put my two cents in, with regard to all things food related, and at this point two cents is all I actually have to spare.  So, don’t expect any [...]

Hello All! My name is Kat and I am pleased to share my thoughts and experiences eating in Atlanta and beyond. I worked in restaurants through high school in the Midwest, college in Boston, and have continued working in the hospitality industry in Atlanta. My greatest qualification is my appetite. I am far from a [...]

I grew up in a family where wine was not part of life. From time to time my mother might buy a cheep bottle for a recipe she wanted to try. After that night the bottle would sit in the back of the fridge and wait for my step-father to grow tired of pushing it [...]

My earliest memories of food are centered around my father.  He taught me to make lots of things from scratch, never offering a recipe, instead guiding me to navigate the ingredients and flavor combinations armed only with my senses and instinct.

Hello All Over the weekend (I believe Sunday afternoon) the server hosting Roobifood was brought down for some un-planned maintenance. As is sometimes the case, there was a problem with some upgrades being performed, which rendered the site un-viewable for a day or two. The good news is that everything should now be resolved. I [...]

I have a number of friends that refuse to eat leftovers. ( you know who you are!) I tell them they’re not very creative and limiting the opportunity to cut time in the kitchen the next few evenings. Leftovers provide a great starting point for the next dish. It can be as simple as rice [...]

Okay, so you’ve taken my earlier advice about wanting to bring your child(ren) into the kitchen but your not sure where to start. What do we do to get them interested in food? We get them to help make it! You’d be surprised at how much more willing they are to try new foods this [...]
