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.

Everything I had at Kaliwa was tasty. The interior design and decor was thoughtful and compliments the food. The menu is set up in a way to get you to sample food from Korea, Thailand, and the Philippines. Start off with the Phuket Sunset to set your tongue ablaze. Then try some of the bbq/street meat. The Filipino street bbq is delicious, served with the banana ketchup. If you like clams, the Hoi Pad Tao has a lot of heat and deep flavors, typical of Thai food. And for dessert absolutely get the Halo Halo! If you like ice cream or especially bingsu, you'll love it.
