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.

The steak at Medium Rare is perfectly cooked, and the chips are crispy, sturdy but soft on the inside. The sauce is delicious and ties it everything together. The dessert is phenomenal their cake was the best I had eaten in a long time. Definitely, recommend this spot. And one of the best parts is that you automatically get seconds on your main! I was skeptical about Medium Rare when I saw on the menu that their primary focus is steak-frites, but the taste and service quickly cleared my doubts.
