About

My name is Alex Meehan, and I’m a journalist and writer working out of Dublin, Ireland. I’ve always been interested in food and cooking, and I occasionally write professionally about food and culinary matters.

Because I write about other things as well (arts, literature, technology etc) I thought I’d set up a blog just for food-related topics. I use Well Fried Onions to bring together my professionally published food articles, as well as recipes of my own and things I’ve found online that are interesting. I have another blog, for non-food related matters (http://yamabiko.wordpress.com) so feel free to check that out if you’re interested.

Why Well Fried Onions? Because that’s the basis of 90 per cent of the flavour of the foods I love. Oh, and while I’m not a chef, the picture above has an interesting story behind it.
