More about me

For me, cooking is...

My life's passion. I have found that I the only thing I enjoy more than cooking is sharing my culinary knowledge.

I learned to cook at...

I first learned to cook at the age of 13 when I joined the Boy Scouts. At 14 I was dishwashing in a restaurant. At 20, apprenticing to be a chef.

A cooking secret...

Knowing that every ingredient has a unique flavor and purpose, then finding it's secret hidden use.
