MY DINING ROOM

My food Instagram is a way for me to showcase my work and connect with, and learn from, people who value food and cooking. This page speaks to who I am because it captures my culinary journey and inspiration. My experimentation in the kitchen is inspired by my younger brother. Allergic to over 15 foods, I often take apart recipes and change them to accommodate him. I've made him a homemade Twix bar, focaccia bread, cinnamon rolls, dumplings––all things he watches those around him eat but could never experience outside the safety of our home kitchen. Instagram has also been a tool for me to help practice and improve my presentation, in both photography and plating. I like to add an educational element by discussing food allergies and dietary restrictions, promoting ethical ingredients, and incorporating food and wine pairings.
