About Me

Is anyone else hungry? Well I am, so let's make this introduction short and find something delicious to eat!

My name is Bailley, I'm 20 years old and I love food. I've lived in Vancouver, Washington most of my life but have had some amazing opportunities to live in Pullman, Washington for a while, as well as Gold Coast, Australia.  I'm currently studying Strategic Communication at Washington State University in Vancouver and when I'm not studying or sleeping, I'm probably at yoga or eating!

The last five years of my life I've been in an awesome relationship with my best friend, David, and back in 2012 is when my interest in
food really flourished. David is Vietnamese, and dating him has introduced me to flavorful cuisines that I probably wouldn't have ever tried hadn't he convinced me to. Now, one of our favorite things to do is try new restaurants and rate them afterwards.

From price to presentation, authenticity to atmosphere, we've made a hobby around trying new places and afterwards talking about the things we liked, and things that weren't our favorite.

While I love food, I also love my family, friends, dog and trying/learning new things. It may seem clique for a pacific north west girl to chat about how much I love organic, natural foods, but it's the truth! Growing up I was constantly surrounded by my mom and grandpa gardening and then using fresh produce to create homemade meals.

My mom makes the best salsa on the face of this planet, and she can pick most of the ingredients she uses from the garden in her back yard. That's pretty cool if you ask me.

These influences have molded me into the hungry college student I am today. I've got tuition to pay and books to buy, but going out for a nice meal that doesn't break the bank is always worth talking about, and that's what I aim to do in this blog.

Stay tuned for local restaurant reviews and recommendations, discussing food that's worth a college students spare change, and the ones that aren't.
