Hi, I am Ashana, and I love just about anything related to food, whether it is shopping for food, cooking it, eating it, going out to eat it, reading about it and talking about it. I even manage to talk about food during job interviews and business meetings, which already shows you how far this obsession has gone 🙂

Exploring different cuisines, discovering new food creations and trying to recreate them, has always been my passion. On this blog I post my own recipes & try out recipes from cook books and famous chefs. It also includes tips for food shopping, whether it be ingredients or equipment & books. When I started cooking more seriously in my twenties, I realized how important it is to have the right ingredients and the right equipment, and looking for both can be quite time consuming. In this blog, I try to make your journey easier by including the equipment I use and where to shop for ingredients. Lastly, my blog includes (foodie) travel tips and restaurant recommendations to provide you with a complete foodie experience.

My culinary sidekick and partner Stijn joins me in my food explorations. I think my obsession is contagious, because he loves food shopping, looking for high quality equipment, but mostly eating my food and pairing it with nice wines. Whenever you see nice pictures of the food we cook, you can be sure that Stijn has been my right hand in the mise en place and (sorry Stijn) doing the dishes.

I hope you enjoy our food adventures!
