About Me

Hi, I’m Alex. I grew up in a small town in Georgia, but food has taken me all over the world. Over the years I worked in kitchens in Charlotte, Bergen (Norway), Oslo, Disney World, Chattanooga, Atlanta, and Nashville. For 12 years, I lived and breathed the life of a chef with long hours, hot kitchens, and the constant pursuit of making something better than the day before.

Eventually, I hung up the apron to spend more time with my family, but my love for food never went away. Cooking has always been more than just work for me; it’s a way to connect, to share, and to create memories.

This blog is my way of bringing that passion to you. I want to help take the fear out of cooking, to show that it doesn’t have to be complicated or intimidating. With the right guidance (and a little patience), anyone can put a great meal on the table.

So whether you’re just getting started or looking to sharpen your skills, welcome! I’m glad you’re here. Let’s cook something together.
