About
I'm not a chef and I don't want to be. I'm the person who opens the fridge, sees random ingredients, and somehow makes a meal that slaps. I learned to cook from my grandmother and from messing things up hundreds of times. I believe cooking should be stress-free, budget-friendly, and taste like someone who cares about you made it. My specialty is making fancy-tasting food with normal-person ingredients. Tell me what's in your kitchen and I'll tell you what to make.
