Hi everyone!! My name is Gordon Attard (nicknamed Gordy) a 26 year old guy from the beautiful small island of Malta which is situated in the heart of the Mediterranean.
How I started - In my tender age I was always interested & even had connection with food, because my beloved aunties used to cook some nice Sunday dishes full of traditional Maltese food like Rabbit Stew with potatoes and vegetables, Stuffed Pork & Chicken with gravy etc.... Although I always left half of the plate because I couldn't eat more, I always wondered how they did it and what they put in it. From then on at the age of 13 I used to be glued on TV watching this half Italian half Maltese chef cooking pastas, dips and pastes on a programme just after I finished from school. What I did is I started to write the recipes and then I used to pay attention in detail on how he used to make the recipes.
What I become - After some years where I had the opportunity to choose what to do and what I want to become, I wanted to go to the local catering school; The Institute of Tourism Studies, St. Julians Malta. In the October 1999 I started my 4 years Higher Diploma Course in Food Preparation & Production. In those 4 years ( the 3rd year is internship abroad) I worked with and under great chefs which I really thank today such as; Chef Stephan Hogan, Chef Joe Xuereb, Chef Ian MacDonald & Chef Graeme Singer which where my inspiration for food passion and motivation to increase my gastronomy knowledge.
What I am - Nowadays, after my 8 years of experience in various Hotels & Restaurants locally and abroad (Scotland & Spain) I wanted to do something new but still related to the catering scene. That’s why I came up with this idea of ‘Pimp that food’. Pimp means customize or to change the old eating habits. Simply the idea is to help and teach young, adults and older people that Changing in life is a hard to do, but once you have done it you will benefit from it. Change the way you eat to benefit for your health and change the way you reach your goals to get slimmer, fitter & stronger. But pimpthatfood.com isn’t only food, but also interesting wrong things that we do usually at home that we can change for better use and also to choose the way to be fit and healthy. Welcome aboard... are you ready to be pimped?
