So what is
trencherman all about? Well, we’re not selling anything, for a start. First a couple of definitions:
trencherman:
n. someone who eats heartily and enjoys good food
epicurean:
adj. devoted to sensual pleasures, especially good food
The
trencherman website was originally born out of a simple love of good food and wine. But it has grown to be more about an ethos, a philosophy, and when we talk about the
epicurean spectrum we have not only good food and wine in mind, but also convivial company and pleasant surroundings; travelling the world and enjoying its natural beauty and alternative cultures; plus a wealth of other experiences including the literary, visual and performing arts. One thread that binds all these together is the creation and enjoyment of a permanent written and visual record of all these things.
So if you prefer
linguine alla vongole to Louis Vuitton; Barbera or Gewürztraminer to Bellinis or Grey Goose; or clambering in mountain boots to clubbing in Manolo Blahniks; if you know your
panna cotta from your
panettone, and what
dulce de membrillo is; if you’d prefer to find
G.S.M. in your wineglass than your mobile phone; then you’ll feel right at home here.
