I’m a Dominican chef specialized in International and Modernist cuisine. As a food traveler, I had the opportunity to visit countries such as Nicaragua, Costa Rica, Panama, Guatemala, Mexico, Colombia, Peru, Cuba, İtalia, Belgium, Spain, France, Greece, the Balkans (Albania, Croatia, Montenegro) and Lebanon to learn their gastronomic secrets. A lot! And the most important, I learned from them many interesting secrets about their cuisine, each one with its own personalities.

In the last four years, I had lived in Turkey and traveled the length and breadth of the country in my eagerness to learn about its gastronomic culture.

With this blog I intent to share with you the recipes and tips that I love the most of all this countries, so, please take a sit and enjoy the trip.
