Hi There!
I’m Ryan and I love to cook. I also have an unhealthy obsession with some celebrity chefs, so last year I started cooking my way through various cookbooks to combine two things that I love.
This blog is all about that project. You can find recipe review posts, tidbits about cooking, reviews of restaurants that I go to, and maybe even an original recipe every now and then.
