Ubiquitous Food Cravings

http://ubiquitouscravings.wordpress.com/

If there’s one thing to know about me as a foodie, it’s that my body is constantly craving some sort of food, all the time, anytime and not only one but multiple cravings at one moment. Sadly as a cheap student stuck in Kingston, my options are very limited. I never forget a craving and don’t stop searching for a way to satisfy my hunger until I get the food that I want. The blog is dedicated to my food adventures as I try to explore food combinations, develop my cooking skills, review restaurants, try new products and write about it all.
