About Us

Welcome to Tom’s Food! the website of prize winning food writer and sometime licensing lawyer, Tom Johnston. Thank you to all readers. In 2024 we hit a new high of over 90,000 hits. I hope you enjoy the content. More importantly, I hope you will interact with me and tell your friends. This page is a quick guide to what you can expect to find.

Tom Eats!

As you might guess, this page is given over to restaurant reviews, appearing most Fridays. There are now six year's worth of articles. Places are flagged by Location, Type and Score. You can search using any combination of these. For more information, refer to the Using the Search Facility article on the On The Side page. Guest reviews are welcome, or let me know your favourites.

Tom Cooks!

Weekly recipes and tips.  We now have several hundred recipes online, from a wide range of cuisines and cultures. If you're looking for a recipes, use the search facility. It is free text search. This means you don't need the title - just search for individual ingredients. Any problems, consult the search guide referred to in the last paragraph.

On The Side

This was introduced when the site was upgraded a few years ago. We've had features on ingredients and on chefs: we've interviewed food producers; we've reviewed books and even an opera. You never know what you're going to get next, for the simple reason that I'm never quite sure what I'm going to write about next.
