Currently living around the beaches of Goa, I am enjoying food, movies and sleeping to the sound of rain. Growing up, I was very fascinated with my Aunt's cooking and even today she is the best cook I know. But I am no trained chef, unless being a home chef counts. I learn by watching people cook and make up recipes in my head with a twist. Of course, it takes a lot of trial and error to get to the perfect dish. I recently started this blog as a creative outlet for me to express my love for food, eating and cooking. I’m not one for fancy restaurants, but I love food made at home.
