About

Any Given Food is a blog about food, in all its forms and glories. From home cooking to eating out, artisan produce to food festivals and technology, Any Given Food was started in October 2010 as an outlet for me to start writing about food. For a year previous I had been taking photos of everything I cooked and ate, no matter how big or small or what town or country I was in. After a year of uploading photos to various micro blogs and Tumblr accounts, I figured it was time to really get stuck in, so used the Savour Kilkenny Food Festival in October 2010 as the catalyst to get the blog going.

Flash forward to present day and I’m very much enjoying writing about food. I’ve been actively blogging since 2004, covering everything from mobile technology to music, theatre to American Football and beyond but Any Given Food marks the first real approach and effort at writing about food. The more I get into writing about food, the more I start to leave the technology blogging behind to the point where I’m very happy to be called a food blogger.

If you’re new to the blog, you can explore the archives to see what you may have missed. You can also find me on Twitter via @anygivenfood or over here on Facebook.

About The Author

I, Ken McGuire (27), am a small-business owner and food enthusiast living in Kilkenny. I’m a designer (web and graphic) by day and have been running Event Media in Kilkenny since July 2005. By night, my attention turns to the arts where I look after Kilkenny Music and The Devious Theatre Company. On the time in between you’ll find me in a restaurant, or café, or cooking at home. I have too many cookbooks and not enough cookbooks and if I wasn’t a web designer, it’s very possible I would be a chef. I’ve won awards for my web work, including Best Podcaster at the Irish Web Awards. You can listen to my latest podcasts (started March 2011) at IndieSwitch.com. If you want to connect in person, find me on LinkedIn.com.
