Hi,

My name is “Gor” and this site was created to get all my thoughts of food out of my head into some logical order and so I could stop making great dishes and then forgetting all the ingredients next time around. It is also somewhere where I can put recipes I have tried from magazines, cook books or from other food bloggers that I think deserve to be shared.

I love food, cooking it, eating it, reading food magazines, cookbooks, watching cooking shows – My husband said to me recently that all I ever talk about is food, so to save my marriage I thought i’d better stop boring him and find another outlet.

I am building up a wide range of recipes on here, from healthy eating and midweek teas to whole dinner party menus and attempts at fine dining. I am not a food snob, one day I might fancy lunch at Manchester house and the next I might fancy a donner kebab on my settee. I love to host dinner parties ( although I am not allowed right now!) and more often than not if you come to eat at my house there will be a theme. I have hosted tapas nights, Greek BBQ’s, curry nights, Chinese, Italian, fine dining, middle eastern… I just love variety and trying new flavours.

I remember as a child that my grandmother always took great pleasure in feeding people and I think I must have inherited that gene!

Every month I will also put together a “menu” which is an idea for a 3 course meal you may want to try at home. Anyone who lives local to me may even get to try it through Gorge@home where I cater for 10 people with a different food theme each weekend!
