The Little Red Kitchen is a place for me to share recipes, culinary adventures around the world and food or drink related events here in New York City where I reside. I have no formal culinary training, I learned to cook from watching my mom, Julia Child, Jacques Pepin, Alton Brown and Sara Moulton. I have fond memories of watching those shows on PBS with my parents and later on sitting in my room at night watching Good Eats and Cooking Live. I had clearly developed a passion for food at an early age. Eventually, I put everything I soaked in on TV to test and started to cook. Turns out, I wasn’t half bad! In the last few years I started to become more serious in my cooking and baking and started to stray away from recipes. I developed original recipes and cooked more by feel than by structure. I live in Brooklyn, NY with my husband and the cutest dog ever. I cook in my 80 square foot, newly remodeled kitchen (I wasn’t kidding when I said it was little)! I love life in NYC and the culinary opportunities it offers. I try to go to as many food events as my calendar will allow and if there is a good beer event, you are certain to find me there!
