Hello! Welcome to dontmissmyplate.

Thank you for visiting the website! I'm Maxine, blogger, home cook, soon to be food entrepreneur, and lover of all things food and fusion cuisine (a style of cooking that combines ingredients and methods from different countries, regions, or cultures). My approach is primarily rooted in both a Zimbabwean and American perspective based on my life experiences, making it quite varied. I hope you find the website helpful and come back! There is something for everyone, and recipes are designed to inspire you to try something new.

There is something for everyone on the menu at Barrel and Bushel, but THE appetizer to try is the B&B poutine (actually a Canadian dish). This is a heap of steak fries smothered in farmers cheese, chorizo sausage gravy, and bacon. The fried chicken sandwich is another must-have, perfectly crunchy and cooked. If you happen to be by Tysons on a warm day head over to this place. Perfect for a Friday night happy hour session or drinks and a meal on a weekend afternoon.
