Thank you for visiting my website! I'm Maxine—a food blogger, home cook, travel enthusiast, and all-around lover of food and culture. In other words, I’m passionate about fusion cuisine—a style of cooking that blends ingredients and techniques from different countries, regions, and cultures.
My approach is shaped by both Southern African and American influences, reflecting my life experiences and making my recipes diverse and dynamic. I also love traveling and sharing my food adventures with you, from what I ate to where to eat, while discovering new flavors and techniques along the way.
I hope you find this website helpful and inspiring. Whether you're looking for something familiar or eager to try something new, there's something here for everyone. Enjoy exploring, and happy cooking!
If you haven't paid Tiki Taco a visit, you are missing out. The concept is to bring Hawaii's unique mix of flavors to the DMV delivered to you in a mouth-watering taco! They also serve poke, salads, shaved ice, and a few other things. Soft shell crab and roasted cauliflower tacos are seasonal tacos. What started as a hobby in a private kitchen resulted in this great Dupont hot spot.
