About
Taste T.O. is a website dedicated to covering Toronto’s food and restaurant scene. From burgers to Berkshire pork, greasy spoons to gourmet hot-spots, cheese shops to Chinese take-aways - if you can eat it or drink it, we’ll write about it.
Who We Are
Sheryl Kirby - co-founder, publisher & editor
Sheryl developed a love of cooking at an early age, and upon moving to Toronto in the late eighties found herself living in the middle of Kensington Market, where she couldn’t help but expand her tastebuds. She did a year of culinary arts at George Brown and went on to run her own catering and event planning company with her husband and partner, Greg Clow. During that time she also ran a website called toronto-underground.com that featured small local businesses and restaurants. When she took a gig as an editor at the Well Fed Network in early 2006, she was reminded of how much fun it was to put her two favourite things - food and writing - together. Sheryl has written for Gremolata and NOW Magazine among other publications, and keeps a personal food blog called Save Your Fork… There’s Pie!
Greg Clow - co-founder, tech monkey & ad sales
Greg is a beer geek who works full-time as a systems analyst in the health care sector. Most of his extra-curricular activities in the past 20 years or so have been focused on electronic and experimental music, and have included gigs as a writer/reviewer, radio DJ, concert promoter, and head of a tiny record label (the latter two done with his wife, Sheryl Kirby). With the end of all of these projects in 2004/05, he needed to find something else to fill his spare time, and writing about beer seemed to be a fine option. He became the news editor at Toronto beer website The Bar Towel in early 2006, and followed this with a beer column at Toronto food & drink webzine Gremolata. In mid-2006, he got the itch to write some stuff about beer & other things that didn’t really fit in at either of those places, so he started his personal blog, Beer, Beats & Bites.
