Gastropoetica

Abi: Toronto, Ontario, Canada; As an Australian living in Toronto, one of the world's most multicultural cities, I've spent the last eight years discovering the joys of roti, pierogies, bibimbap, elk jerky, and poutine. Torontonians are almost as enthusiastic about books as they are about food, and this suits me just fine. Technically, I'm here to gain my PhD in Victorian Literature from the University of Toronto, but I've never let school put me off my food before, and this blog is a way to combine my two primary obsessions. I intend to cover some pretty far-ranging territory, from the feasts of ancient Rome to the cookbook-cum-novels of Isabel Allende; but there will also be recipes of my own (and others') creation, pictures when I manage to get them, images and reviews of Toronto's literary and gastronomic offerings, and occasional inchoate ramblings about food and books in general.
