Like the majority of food blogs, this one got it's start out of nothing more than interest in food. I (Matt) thought it was time to get into the rhythm of writing more about food as preparation for a recipe book in development. Even if it meant just sharing photos initially and some simple reviews, it made sense to have a single place for it. But like other blogs, there's always the issue of running out of content. Since much of my diet consists of simple salads, there would be plenty of weeks where I had little to contribute here. So collaboration with friends was essential.

I turned to Jason, a friend I met while living in Los Angeles, as he's been a food sherpa in his own right. Like myself, much of his travel has been focused heavily on the culinary experiences. He and I have been touring restaurants in Los Angeles, San Francisco, up into Montana, west to Tokyo, and all over Europe. He's always one to send me a quick recommendation on an eating establishment he found and I'm quick to save it in my notes. His interest in photography extends into the food realm as well as he'll often post pictures of food on his various accounts.

Jess is the third kindred spirit in the trifecta. Now living in New York after moving from Los Angeles, she and Jason have had their own food adventures around Los Angeles, New York and the rest of the United States.


So now the 3 of us find ourselves in three very different places: Buenos Aires, San Francisco and New York. And while we might not be experiencing meals together in person, FoodSherpas.com is how we'll continue to share even the most mundane food experiences with the world.
