Hi, I’m Alex – welcome to my food blog!
I’m originally from a small village in Austria, but I’ve been living in London since my early 20s. My husband and I share a love for travel, discovering new cultures, and – of course – sampling local foods wherever we go. Back home, we recreate those memories in our kitchen, one dish at a time.
When I first moved to London, I was overwhelmed (in the best way) by the explosion of new experiences and unfamiliar cuisines. Since then, my curiosity about global flavours has only grown. These days, I’m more adventurous than ever and love discovering new culinary experiences.
I’m not a chef or a nutritionist – just a passionate home cook who enjoys experimenting with different cuisines and ingredients. I often tweak recipes to fit what’s available here in the UK, while staying true to the heart of the dish. My inspiration comes from cookbooks, online recipes, and people I meet along the way. Sometimes I follow recipes to the letter; other times I adapt them based on taste, time, or budget. I believe even a quick weeknight dinner can be full of flavour and fun.
Whenever I stumble upon a new ingredient, I can’t wait to figure out what to do with it. If I’m unfamiliar, I’ll find someone who knows and learn from them. I don’t like wasting food – and I get bored easily with repetitive meals. Variety is the spice of life, and spice? I like plenty of it.
Thanks so much for stopping by! I hope you enjoy the blog, check out my video shorts, and feel inspired to try some of the recipes I share.
