Cook With Me (A blog by Anthony Johnson, Caterer and Chef)

Cook With Me (A blog by Anthony Johnson, Caterer and Chef)

Hello, My name is Anthony Johnson. I'm co-owner and co-founder of Hats Off To Dining Catering. A Brandon, FL based business that began as restaurant critique website in 2000 and established itself a caterer in 2002 with our first wedding.

I love to cook and I find it relaxing and fun. This is probably because I love good food. I find it hard to believe that a great many people don't like to cook but they love good food like me.

This Blog is my attempt to increase those food lovers' desire to cook for themselves by introducing some great step-by-step recipes and cooking techniques. You will communicate with me via the blog as you cook the recipe.

I could write a book but I wouldn't have the immediate interaction with readers like I can with the Blog. With this Blog (I'm calling "Cook With Me"), I'm able to get feedback from you on how cooking the weekly recipe is going while it's happening and clarify any of the steps.

The way I envision the "Cook With Me" Blog working is:

1. I list the recipe and technique of the week on the blog on Sunday,
2. You have two days to shop for the ingredients on Monday and Tuesday
3. You cook the recipe with me on Wednesday starting at 5:30 PM – 7:30 PM
4.
- (This allows many of you to get home from work or school if you have a later work or school schedule.)
5. You write on the blog how it's going for you as you're cooking the recipe.
- (You get to ask me questions each step of the way before going on to the next step so you get great results each recipe)

Cook With Me starts January 3rd, 2010. Please email me at CWM@hatsofftodining.com so I know how many participants to expect. Look forward to cooking with you!

The first meal will be My Awesome Meatloaf. Look for it on January 3rd, 2010.
