Recipes, Stories & Travel Reviews

Ciao! Welcome!

What’s my deal? My passion is to cook, entertain and create. I believe a home-cooked meal with friends is one of life’s greatest joys and luxuries. I think anyone with a little inspiration and effort can enjoy cooking for themselves. I also enjoy the challenge of making cooking for one = cooking for fun. Join me. Andiamo!

Ciao!

Qual è la mia passione? La mia passione è cucinare, ospitare e creare. Credo che un pasto fatto in casa con gli amici sia una delle gioie e dei lussi più grandi della vita. Credo che chiunque, con un po' di ispirazione e di impegno, possa divertirsi a cucinare per se stesso. Mi piace anche la sfida di rendere la cucina per una persona = cucina per divertimento. Andiamo!
