I do not just eat, I savour every morsel. I do not just feed, I romance one's palate.
I do not just cook, I make love with food.
I am D' Kitchen Bitchen
Don't get me all wrong, I am not here to insult or trash. I am here to give food some edge, a gustatory romancing if you may. Am here to show that every food experience goes beyond satiation - moments created, connections made, stories told. Food is such a powerful medium and I wish to share my experiences with all of you. :)
As starters, just wanted to take you on a photo journey of some documented food experiences from my different page archives. After going through these, I told myself to document every good [any maybe bad] food moment I will have from now on. Enjoy!

i love my Ben & Jerry's
ate insects (this cricket among others) in Bangkok
My day job allows me to be with some celebs too during press launches and event. I will promise to get more interesting moments next time, hopefully with other food & beverage brands and tummy-filling locations.

But more than food encounters, I cook a lot too. Corollary to that, I eat a lot as well. Here is a sampling of what I have been doing for some time now. All the experimentation, cooking shows, little classes here and there and piles of cookbooks I think paid off. I will upload our Saturday food fest after this post. :)
