About me

I’m finally here with my own little corner of the internet! (It’s been a long time coming, but we’re finally here!)

Lets cut to the chase; here’s the lore. I was born and raised in Macau -essentially the Las Vegas of Asia and Hong Kong’s next-door neighbour - but I’m originally from Goa, the smallest state in India, and now I’m based in London. So basically, I’m your typical third-culture kid.

You’d think that with how much I love cooking and eating these days, it’s always been this way. But honestly? I was a very picky eater growing up and never even wanted to step foot in a kitchen, let alone have a whole career centred around food.

But that all changed when I went to university...

Instead of going catered, I chose the self-catered route - aka the bane of my existence at first, considering I didn’t even know how to cook rice - but somehow, along the way, my love for food blossomed.

What started as me trying to survive university and recreate the meals I grew up eating, gradually turned into a genuine passion. And then lockdown happened, and that passion really took off.

What began as a way to ease my homesickness has since grown into something I never expected and it's something I feel incredibly lucky and grateful to have built. And it's all thanks to you guys!

These days, my mission is pretty simple: to share recipes that are approachable (well, most of the time 😅), delicious, and packed with flavour - mostly Asian-inspired, with a little bit of everything that makes me, me.

Along the way, I’m also learning more about my identity, my heritage, and all the different cultures that have shaped me. Because deep down, I’m still just a girl who misses the taste of home. ❤️

You’ll find all of this (and a whole lot more) here, as well as over on my Instagram and TikTok!
