WHY FOODCATION FOREVER?

I don’t know about you but I travel to eat. Tasting foods from around the world, or even from different parts of the US, connects me to the people and the place I’m visiting. Exploring new flavors and textures is exciting to me and so when I come home from any kind of travel, I like try and recreate what I’ve eaten. Sometimes going on a foodcation also means cooking foods from places that I’d like to visit someday. I know there must be more people like me out there who enjoy eating flavors from around the world, or even flavors from our own backyard. So that is what I present to you. I’ll never say all of my recipes are authentic, but what is authentic is the quality and care that goes into everything I do.
