About

Hudson Valley Food Blog was created to share my personal experiences related to cooking, dining,
travel around the Hudson Valley and promote what makes this area of New York special.

Although I have worked in professional kitchens I am by no means a professional cook. My interest in
food started in the least likely of places, working in a hospital kitchen. Most importantly this is also
where I met my wife. Working in the Putnam Hospital coffee shop as a short order cook I first
experienced the joy of cooking for others. I then worked for s short time in a seaside restaurant in
Rhode Island working my way from up from prep to the line. What started out as just a job has turned
into a true passion.

Now days cooking is my hobby and I enjoy learning as much as possible about food. I don't know if
hobby is the right word since it's something that has changed the way I think and view the world.
Everything from grocery shopping to gardening.

Since 2000 I have moved 10 times including stops in Albany, Boston, New York City and finally
settling in the Hudson Valley.  I hope to be able to share my experiences from all of these locations, as
well as home in the Hudson Valley.

Thanks for stopping by and I hope you enjoy.
