About Me

I love reading cookbooks, browsing kitchen gadgets on the internet, testing a recipe and then taking photographs of it.

I am not sure how my love for food started, as my first attempt at cooking was a rather dismal performance in my boyfriends kitchen (now my husband) with a frozen chicken in an electric frying pan, it was not a success.

I remember watching the movie Tortilla Soup on a 14 hour flight to the US, and i realized at that point that I actually wanted to be a chef.  Now this movie did not catapult me into Jamie Oliver's kitchen, but instead it just inspired me towards a dream which I hope I would fulfill one day, and that is to have my own little wine and food shop somewhere in the world.

But for the time being I hope to inspire you with some of my favorite recipes which I have collected over the years, and perhaps we can enjoy a nice glass of wine together while cooking, after all my favorite quote by W.C Fields is "I cook with wine, sometimes I even add it to the food"

I hope you will enjoy my blog and cooking with me :)
