Whenever I am about to travel somewhere new, I find myself scouring the internet. Time and time again, instead of looking for accommodations, transportation, attractions, I have found that my first and most thorough search has always revolved around the local cuisine. I constantly create lists of foods and restaurants, intrigued by what I should try and where I should try it. As a result of this hobby, my curiosity and commitment grew. I am by no means a chef or a writer, but I am an eater.

And hence, this site was born.

Food keeps us alive both physically and emotionally. “Family dinners,” “afternoon tea,” “Sunday supper,”- all of these are titles for moments we set aside in our day; moments where we sit down in community, share food, and share ourselves. What dishes have been created around the world to encourage and support that? What foods tell a story about who has lived in the area for centuries? What “must-try” menus are inventive and new, due to the creative people currently residing there?

These questions are why I began this site, for those of us who are excited to explore the world and community through cuisine.
