Foodbuzz’s Official Launch
Foodbuzz is a website that acts as a meeting place for most of the food blogs that exist out there. From Foodbuzz, one can search for your favourite recipe, read reviews of eateries in your city or perhaps even a city you’ll soon be traveling to. I’ve been with Foodbuzz for nearly a year and […]
Lights, Camera…Kalofagas
Here it is, the clip you’ve been waiting for…a snippet of the filming I did this past summer while in Athens, Greece. I spent the whole day filming which began with gathering some footage at Athens’ Varvakeios market, followed by a day of having myself filmed while preparing three dishes and having myself introduce two […]
Gone Fishing
Today I leave for a long anticipated and much deserved vacation in Greece. I will be relaxing at my family’s summer home in Halkidiki, heading down to Greece’s capital, Athens and also visiting the Greek island of Sifnos. Later in the vacation I will also head up to my parents’ towns in Florina and then […]
Blogging Rant
Yesterday, through the miracle of my Google Reader came the title of an entry called “illegal or not”, from Melissa of Alosha’s Kitchen.Please read her saga here and then come back and tell me how you feel. I’m about to tell you how I feel. Melissa, like any good food blogger went on a search […]
Dr. Kalofagas or Mr. Hyde?
Somewhere between when I started this blog just over a year ago and now, some people have gotten the impression that I’m some Wally Cleaver or something. The nice guy next door who will never say the wrong thing or curse or swear. I think the reality is that I’m probably closer to an Eddie […]
Look! Over Here….
Today was a pretty damn good day. The weather is looking bright, the temperature is rising and the blog is reaching out to new avenues. Judy of No Fear Entertaining emailed me with the excitement of rock groupie about how my recent Churrasco chicken dish got picked up on NBC San Diego’s affiliate TV station […]
Five Things You Wish You Didn’t Know About Me
Heather from Gild the Voodoolily caused me to squirm the other day and get your minds out of the gutter (no prostate check) but she “MEME’ed” me, “tagged me” like rhino in the Serengeti that’s been earmarked to divulge all. I was thinking, how much shall I divulge? What shall I share or what shall […]
Microplane Rasp
After years of “dilly-dallying” with cheap impersonators and awkward box graters, I finally bought myself a Microplane Rasp. It’s long enough to sit over a pot or pan and you can grate right into the dish being prepared. I bought this utensil from Kitchen Stuff Plus and although I like to keep the kitchen clutter-free […]
Bayou Classic Chick Can Rack
I’ve been enjoying beer can chicken for years now but after a few chickens have fallen over in the BBQ, I decided to finally try out one of the many racks in the market. I found this particular rack at Walmart and it was on sale for $3.96. I tested it out and it worked […]
Blog Virgin
Greetings, This is my intro to the world of blogging and in particular, food blogs. I feel like a debutante being introduced for the very first time to society so…be gentle! I love food. I think of food the way one plays chess…thinking of up to two meals ahead or sometimes more. I’ll try to […]
