About A Thought For Food

Hi everyone! I’m Brian, an adventurous pescatarian (sometimes a very naughty one) whose great passion is to cook, write about and photograph food.  Food has shaped the person I am today and I believe that this is the case for many people out there.

A Thought For Food was started in 2009 as a way to share  my culinary experiences with others.   Through recipes, personal anecdotes, and historical/cultural information, I hope to make people think about the role that food plays in our lives.

I reside in South Boston, MA, and live with my husband, Eric, and my pup, Maki.

A Thought For Food has been featured in a number of publications and websites and was picked as one of Saveur’s “Sites We Love.”
