I had minestrone for the first time at a random Italian restaurant somewhere near San Francisco. I don’t know why I remember this so specifically, but my dad and I had just arrived in California and decided to go to the first place we saw […]
Oh, hey! So here’s my ‘sorry I’ve been MIA’ spiel: This summer was BUSY!!! Between a long distance relationship & regular weekend trips to NYC, to New England in July, then Chicago, then Los Angeles, and work and friends and taking any free time I […]
So, I’ve never made homemade pesto before. Everything I’ve read about it is that it’s the bees knees and is 2000% better homemade. I’ve just never given it a go, despite the mortar & pestle I was gifted this past Christmas. WELL. I finally put […]

A larger portion (than I care to admit) of my cooking inspiration comes from mindlessly scrolling through my Instagram feed. That save feature on IG? Mine is 95% food and 5% random posts I accidentally clicked. Yesterday was Tuesday, also known by the internet as […]
Makes homemade potstickers. Last weekend was my first time visiting (and staying in) Chinatown in New York City. I’ve been to NYC a bunch of times and somehow never visited this charming (sort of) little (not really) neighborhood. Some hot takes: It’s authentic. I know […]
