Let's start this food blog up.....

 Hello, and welcome to the beginning of my passion.  My name is Anthony and I am a boy who loves his food.  It's the centre of my creativeness and the source of my sustenance and as such I wanna give all I can to the pursuit of tasty treats of gastronomy.

A few months ago I started a journey.  Pushed into a competition by well wishing family and friends I tried to pit myself against the might of the best amateur cooks in New Zealand by entering the second series of the reality TV show, Masterchef.

I met great people and had some fantastic foodie experiences, but overall I ignited a passion.  A realization that food is it.  This beautiful bounty which we are bestowed with every day.  Something so simple.  Raw ingredients of nature, which can be turned into a thing of true magnificence.

This blog starts off as the burning flame of that passion.  Here I hope to share with you thoughts about food, great recipes, the odd disaster, and some fanciful thoughts along the way.  When I come across a great place to eat in Auckland I'll let you know.  I also want to showcase the best New Zealand has to offer by highlighting the great artisan products that us Kiwi's are giving a go.

Enjoy!
