From street-food to fine dining, traditional Italian to Asian-Fusion, being well-versed in global cuisine is the first step to culinary mastery.
Food, the Language of a Culture
According to a meme I saw on Facebook recently, Noam Chomsky once said: “A language is not just words. It’s a culture, a tradition, a unification of a community, a whole history that creates what a community is. All embodied in a language.”

Pepperoni Pickle Pizza
So I had a restaurant in Mexico, i made burgers and Pizza, and many were my Mexican Clientele, I offered the best food for the lowest price, and my customers returned, sometimes for seconds and thirds. Now it may seem strange, until you realize that this pizza is not your normal pizza, it is a roll. So one roll is equal to a piece of pizza, and yet people would buy three or four to consume for a meal. I now share with you the recipe, for your tastebud's pleasure.

Cast Iron Crayfish on the Campfire
Cast Iron Crayfish on the Campfire. This recipe is from The Shoalhaven in Coastal South Eastern Australia. In early Autumn, we harvest olives by hand at our neighbour's orchid. It's after the heat of summer has broken, and the cicadas aren't so deafening. In the shade, we drink local wine instead of water and eat freshly baked bread with butter from the dairy farms on the ocean bluffs to the East. When we go home, it's with a mason jar of our very own glistening olive oil and a sway in our steps.

My GeeChee Gullah Love
The culture of the Geechees and the Gullahs blesses us from the coast of West Africa and Central Africa and ended up in the coastal Carolinas, Georgia, and Florida. I use the word blessing loosely because it was on the ships of slave traders that these beautiful people would arrive here. I didn't know how deep the revelation of who they were would be for me until I realized these people were actually me. You see, my mother is a GeeChee. Ninety percent of my mothers family comes from the low country of coastal South Carolina in and around Charleston, South Carolina. I had been spending summers there since I was about nine years old. And the thing I most loved was the food and the music.

For the Love of Curry. Third Place in Travel Cuisine Challenge.
The time I spent overseas in Iraq as an American soldier showed me many things. But one thing I hadn't expected to get out of my time there, was a further introduction to and deepening of, my love for the expansive tapestry of taste that is Eastern cuisine. The opportunity to glimpse what homestyle country cooking is like in a country on the other side of the world.

Bake and Shark
“Mommy, why did you keep me from this place?” You’ll have to excuse my dramatic words; I was only a kid. I was in the blue ocean. The sun was shining. My family and I were frolicking in the water. I was completely in awe of the island that I had only been to as a baby before then.
