About Me

I live in Seattle with my husband Marcus with two cats, Mochi and Kimchi.

All my recipes are done before 9 AM when my kitchen gets the best natural light for photography.

My weekends are spent hunting down ingredients at H-Mart and testing new recipes.

A Little More

I grew up in a multicultural neighborhood in San Francisco where I was surrounded by Vietnamese, Korean, Chinese, and Japanese families who were courteous enough to share their food traditions with me.

Lots of the recipes found here are based on those learned experiences – and lots are from my own family.
