Hi, I'm Cara.

For as long as I can remember, I've been obsessed with food and the stories it can tell.

I grew up in the kitchen cooking Southern delicacies with my grandmother, Gram. I've loved every second of cooking with her—she’s always been able to articulately explain the history behind unique ingredients and dishes and weave a seemingly simple recipe into an enthralling narrative.

Here, you'll find my reviews of hole-in-the-wall restaurants, vivid descriptions of my favorite dishes, and interviews with passionate chefs.

Buen aprovecho!
