About the author

she eats. is written by a 20-something woman named K from Houston, the city where restaurants outnumber humans 5:1.

K writes about food and all of its possible corollaries and permutations because food and writing are the two things she loves most in life.

K also writes about food for the Houston Press (as well as holding down a day job as their web editor and occasional photographer) and used to write for Houstonist.  Please go have a look around at those sites, too!

Her joys include:

• highly pungent blue cheese
• making dog food from scratch
• excoriating restaurants that don’t live up to her exacting expectations
• lavishing ridiculous amounts of adoration on restaurants that do
• Boddington’s served at 65 degrees with a thick, creamy head
• red velvet cake
• pad see ew
• Alton Brown and Anthony Bourdain
• baking fresh scones on weekend mornings
• grits…mmm…lovely, glorious grits
• hamachi sashimi with oodles of wasabi
• raw oysters
• steak tartare
• basically, anything raw or rare that won’t kill her
• her mother’s lasagna
• …and readers

And because it’s by far the most asked / e-mailed question (ranging from polite inquiries to overly creepy suggestions): No, that is not my mouth in the banner at the top of the page. Sorry.
