Background

No one is paying me to do this. No one has even asked me to do this. I have no qualifications to write a food blog. My knowledge of culinary terminology is noticeably lacking.

But!

I love food. I really. love. food. On my bad days, eating a great meal is often the best part of my day. On my good days, I still take particular relish in my meals.

I am a grad student whose life is pretty damn occupied by work and school (which explains my "On my bad days..." comment), so writing about something I love seems like an excellent choice for a hobby.
I go out to eat every weekend in restaurants around San Antonio (where I currently live) and Austin (my hometown). As a vegetarian, I am always on the lookout for restaurants with excellent and expansive vegetarian options. Even if a restaurant just has one particularly delightful vegetarian dish, I will probably end up a repeat customer.

So yes, this is a vegetarian food blog. However, other than the no-meat restriction, I will try just about anything. I won't limit my reviews to vegetarian-only restaurants or any particular genre of restaurants. I have certain biases and preferences (Indian food - yes! Steakhouses - no!), which will become apparent, but my tastes are pretty broad.

Enjoy. And feel free to educate me about terminology, undiscovered veggie havens, etc.
