Get to know me

Chicago flavors, home kitchens, and far-off markets meet in one place for recipes, reviews, and stories.

Chicagoland food writer, traveler, and enthusiast

I’m Rebecca, a Chicago born and raised food enthusiast. I love cooking at home, dining out, and letting my phone eat first (i.e. taking amateur food photos that usually just get a quick share on IG stories and then stay on my phone occupying data space).

I’m here to share original and modified recipes for things I know and love, real, honest restaurant reviews, and a little bit of travel fun sprinkled in between.

Everything you see and read on this website is 100% my own. I’ll only post photos I (or my husband) have taken, and anything written is 100% human-generated. I’m a writer and editor by profession, and I stand by that the best writing is done when it comes from the writer’s brain and heart, not what a tool tells me (and a million other people) to say.
