About Me

I've always had a love of food and cookery especially Middle Eastern and Arabic Gulf food.I started studying nutrition but chemistry was never my thing so now I'm in the process of becoming a personal chef.I just love learning all there is to know about food and its culture whether trying out new recipes,experimenting with unusual ingredients,or trying a new twist on a classic recipe.I think exploring different foods should be fun which is why I have started this blog to share my love of arabic/middle eastern food with you.
