Welcome to my humble home on the worldwide web. I’m a food fanatic who’s always hungry and seriously addicted to buying cookbooks. I’ve jumped on the blogging bandwagon so that I could finally make a dent on my “Recipes-to-try” list. My recipes have been inspired by some of my favorite cookbooks, cooking shows and also by the food blog pioneers I’ve followed for years.
Since I live in the San Francisco Bay Area I’m very lucky to be exposed to countless gastronomic delights. My husband and I also love to travel and getting to know different cultures through their cuisine is as exciting for me as seeing famous monuments. At home, however, I tend to gravitate towards simple, rustic dishes. I like classic recipes but can’t help putting my own spin on others. So this is the kind of food you’ll be seeing in this blog–comfort food, a balance between guilt-free and absolutely sinful!
