About I Came For The Food


This website exists because I live (and love) to eat. And I like to share.

Here, you’ll find all things food-related, like my picks for the best affordable foods in Calgary and beyond. I love bacon, poutine, chocolate and cheap. To me, good food at a good value is just as important as hype.

Like a true hobbit (second lunch? Yes and yes!), I’m lucky my high-metabolism hasn’t fled for the hills…yet.

If you appreciate fantastic food, join me in my culinary explorations and discover the origin of my obsession with food.

Do you own a restaurant in London, UK, love to eat, have a dish or story idea to share? Drop me an email at eat_at_icameforthefood.com. Don’t be surprised when I come for the food—it’s what I do best.

For the record, I believe in full-disclosure. I am an anonymous food reviewer who pays for my own meals, unless otherwise noted. This means that food is judged on its taste, not on any hidden, vested interests. The opinions on icameforthefood.com are mine and mine alone. I urge you to make up your own mind about what you read (and eat).

Happy eating!

Me about to eat a lemon meringue cupcake (perfection) from Cako in San Francisco. This, after organic Mexican food from Chipotle. Pure bliss.
