The unlikely nosh

Pete Bendoris is a self-taught and accomplished home cook, beer and wine enthusiast. From his humble beginnings eating his Mom’s horrible meatloaf and canned peas, and his Dad’s love of Narragansett beer, Pete took matters into his own hands and changed his trajectory. As he grew into an adult, he first focused on making great tasting, simple home cooked meals and then later began to pair them with low cost, great tasting wines. With no perfectionist ideals (or even a fancy kitchen), his genuine, laid-back, real life approach to low stress cooking and wine pairing is for everyone.

Besides cooking, Pete is an avid gardener, homebrewer, cidermaker and fledgling pasta and pizza maker

After his full-time 27-year banking career was cut short by the COVID-19 economic shutdown in the Spring of 2020, Great American Nosh was born.
