Upping Your Foodie Game In 2019

Another year brings a new beginning, an opportunity to dump some old ways in favour of new, better ones. How about some food resolution ideas; from eating healthy to exploring what other cultures have to offer. Not to worry. No squats or snails here. Just ideas to make your foodie journey a success.

Let Your Buds Explore

The late chef and super foodie Anthony Bourdain said, “Without experimentation, an eagerness to make inquiries and attempt new things, we will clearly end up static, monotonous, and doomed.” So this year, we encourage you to get out of your comfort zone and explore foods that go past your typical flavor profile. For example, have you ever had game meat? Consider marking off some of those foods on your bucket list.

Balance Health and Taste

So much to sample, so little time! If you cherish eating out and finding what skilled gourmet specialists (read chefs) can prepare from the simplest of ingredients, on some days you will prefer to keep it light and search for dishes that have a decent mix of healthy ingredients and incredible taste.

Face the Elephant in the Room

We all have that one (sometimes more) recipe that we’ve always wanted to make but found incredibly intimidating for one reason or another.  Regardless of whether you can pronounce the name of the dish or not, it’s still worth attempting! Who knows? You may decide to take a moderate Sunday evening and really try it, and it might turn out better (especially aesthetically) than what you saw in the cook book!
