Cuire les aliments comme le français Ne le français!

         If thou shall cook french food, do it the classy way, with a glass of wine and this music playing in the background. The house should have a strong aroma of onion and garlic being fried. The strong smell of parsley and rosemary in the air. Your colourfull apron and sweat pouring, and probably you cursing :P . Ahhh......The True French Way of Cooking                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                                    

Mon amour pour la nourriture est sans fin

bonne journée, hope everyone is doing fine and kicking it old school. My passion for food started as a kid. Food brings me happiness. If I ever do feel down, I waltz myself into the kitchen and whip up something that satisfies my soul. Food brings a satisfaction that no man can bring. Each mouth wakes up your 5 senses, it takes your mind on a journey. Food also represents your culture. I guess we don't need to travel, all we need is a good set of pots and a good recipe book.


       "les hommes vont et viennent, mais la nourriture ne vous laisse tomber"

I started this blog to hopefully inspire people to cook ,whip up some lovely dishes, share and experience the same passion I experience. I would be hailing the best food joints out there, to help you make a decision on whats best when it comes to food....
