even before turning 21 i was fascinated with the idea of making cocktails or even indulging in the drinking of alcohol. there was something poetic about things coming together and making something better than the ingredients alone. recently this has begun to evolve into pure taste.

i guess i’m kind of turning into a foodie. i watch more food network and travel channel than i ever have in my entire life. i’ve been cooking on a semi-regular basis trying to experiment with ingredients, styles, and instruments i’ve never even heard of before. it’s completely enthralling.

today, i was looking through the archives of a website i frequent and i discovered something i must’ve tossed by the wayside. http://www.sodapopstop.com/. it’s the website for a store located in los angeles called galco’s. it’s a store that specializes in the selling of sodas. you can look up an interview with the owner, fantastically upbeat and excited about his occupation. they have every kind of soda imaginable from all around the world. it’s like bevmo! for sodas.

i think i may turn my tumblr into a log of my food adventures from now. photos, reviews, experiences, etc. hopefully in the coming months we can try this galco’s out.
