Why I Cook

I cook because it allows me to connect with people on a deeper level—through shared experiences, flavors, and stories. Food has a unique power to bring joy, comfort, and a sense of community, and I find purpose in creating those moments. Cooking is also a creative outlet for me, where I can experiment, learn, and express my passion through every dish I prepare. At the heart of it all, I cook to serve others and make meaningful memories around the table.
