about

Hey there, I’m Rob Davis. On the side I run web|aggression, a web design and development firm, and by day I am the Interactive Marketing Manager at AFL. By night (and pretty much every other free moment), I’m a big ol’ foodie. I love eating out, I love cooking at home, and this blog is where I share both, restaurants I’ve tried and recipes I’ve cooked up, both culinary or cocktail.

Why a Food Blog?
Honestly? My friends and family finally got tired of me spamming my personal X, Instagram and Facebook with food pics and begged me to start a blog. So here we are.

Another reason: I hate when recipes don’t have photos. Even if mine are amateur (and they usually are), at least you’ll see the finished dish. Plus, I’m obsessed with plating, even if I’m not great at it, so I like documenting that too.

And finally, I’m terrible about writing things down. I’ll whip up an amazing recipe, then completely forget what I put in it. This blog forces me to keep track, with both words and photos, so I don’t lose the good stuff. Whatever the reason, I am here now so please check back, subscribe to the RSS, follow me on X, InstagramFacebook or Pinterest. Thanks for stopping by and please let me know what you think.

My Culinary Tastes
I’m a savory-over-sweet guy. Give me steak over cake any day. My favorite cuisine is Southern/Modern American, comfort food with a fresh, local, farm-to-table twist. That said, I’ll happily eat (and cook) just about anything: Italian, French, Japanese, Indian, Mexican, Vietnamese, Korean, you name it.

Growing up, I had to try at least one bite of everything on the table, and that’s stuck with me. I’ll try anything once, and there are very few things I don’t like. You’ll see me experimenting with new ingredients, building recipes around them, and just generally having fun in the kitchen. Because for me, cooking is play, and eating well is the reward.

    Hello Rob,
    i was going to make the Goat Cheese Souffle and ran into a problem. Your recipe doesn’t detail the amount of AP flour used, it just says 3.

    1. Haha. So sorry. Equal parts butter to flour so 3 tablespoons AP flour.
