Hello, I’m Ryan. I am a home cook, fan of craft cocktails and champagne. I hope you enjoy recipes I’ve gathered, altered and hopefully perfected. All dishes are made and photographed by myself (with some creative and technical assistance from my wife). My cooking journey started when I was young. I was a very picky eater growing up and if I didn’t like what was being served it was up to me. Fast forward to when I was an adult (say age 30) and had the time and concern to eat well. That’s when I started branching out and learning about what good food really was. I still am a bit picky (I get a lot of grief for not liking noodles), but I’m sure many will say I’ve come a long way. This blog will showcase some of what I’ve learned and enjoyed.
