The Delicious Dish

Posted: December 3rd, 2005 | Author: themarkpike | Filed under: Stuff |

Earlier this year, my buddy Blaise (pronounced Blaze) solicited advice from former college roommates to help him name a project he was working on. He had decided to make a hip cooking website, something different than the Stepford Wife barefoot in the kitchen stuff that’s already out there.

I’m convinced my college roommates need to all quit what we’re doing now so we can reunite and form a powerful advertising agency. Here are some suggested names for websites that we came up with:

partyinmypantry.org
gastrodamus.com
bakedblaise.com
SomebodywithDinah.net
mastication-is-normal.org
compliments2thechef-andyourmom.gov
cola.purplestuff.SunnyDelight-nicechoiceMrs.J.net
dirtydish.com
theinternetcafe.com
EverythingButTheKitchenINC.com
allupinmygrill.com
thingsIlearnedfromMarthaStewartinprison.com
itsnotacookie.mother.itsfruitandcake.wellthen-carryon.com
60%chanceofcookingupastorm.com
counterculture.com
meancuisine.com
yougottaeatsomething.com
lookingoodcookin.com
dude.wheresmygirlishfigure.com
thekitchensablaze.com
taketheheat.com
aidandabet-thehamburglar.gov
CheffreyDahmer.com
babyIneedyour-oven-gottohaveallyour-oven.com
nevertrust-a-skinnychef.com
JustmadaboutSaffron.com

Somewhere along the way, Blaise found the most perfect name for a cooking website ever. It is a name that conjures up the parallel imagery of heavy metal music along with cast-iron pots and pans. It is a tribute to Guns n’ Roses, a band that rocks your face, and it is now a premiere Internet destination, a place that rocks your taste. I present you with:
appetiteforinstruction.com


Check out the website. I think it’s gonna be great. They’ve just started, and they don’t have everything set up quite yet, but they’ve got a beautifully shot video for a Radish Salad and the recipe will be up soon. Bookmark it and keep checking back.

Shortly after hearing that Blaise was going with this Guns n’ Roses tribute website name, I suggested a subsection of the website for those that are looking for lighter fare:
Live-and-let-Diet

Also, in midst of this delicious brainstorming session, Justin wrote the single most brilliant idea I have ever heard in my life: “Can we scratch cooking altogether and start a tailor shop called: James Tailor’s Greatest Fits?”

    I agree with you idea that you all need to start an ad agency!

    Thanks! If anybody out there needs us to put our creative minds together, shoot me an email and I’ll see what I can scrape up. We’re like Voltron on this stuff.
