More about me

For me, cooking is...

A carefully balanced expression of skill and ingredients, never letting one replace the other.

I learned to cook at...

I learned that being the best chef is not about having the best equipment or kitchen, it is about bringing out the best that is inside of you.

A cooking secret...

I do not accept mediocre from myself or those around me, but I still believe it can be fun.
