I am a' foody' by nature and love all international food.  I have been giving cooking workshops and organizing dinner events, in Seville, over the last 3 - 4 years.  I like working with food prepared from scratch and like to share my love of food with others. 

Here is the story behind my food madness

I was born into a family with Arabic, Greek and Italian roots. In my early life, I  grew up in Kuwait, a country with a fairly large Indian population and so was exposed to Indian culture and food. After that, I moved with her family to Canada where lived there until October 2011 when I relocated to Seville.

My love of food and gastronomy stems from my mother, a demanding cook and my father who had a great love of all kinds of food. My mother's passion is cooking and thanks to her Greek and Arabic roots was able over the years to develop her own flavours and fusion recipes of these two cultures.

In Canada, a land of many immigrants and immigrant communities, I has been able to enjoy international food. Over the last 20 years Calgary, where I lived, has become a city where one can find all ingredients necessary to create and prepare food of world class level. This has been possible due a large proliferation of International markets and specialty stores. My experience and knowledge of World food has been accentuated by my travel to such countries as: Mexico (where I lived for a few months during a work related experience), France, Italy, Portugal, Greece, China, Argentina, and Thailand where I fell in love with Thai food, to name a few.

Before moving to Seville 7 years ago, I came to the city to study Flamenco during the span of 11 years.  Over these years I grew to know intimately Spain's and particularly Andalusian cuisine.  This knowledge has been amplified since my relationship with my boyfriend Jose who comes from Soria in the North of Spain.  His knowledge of the Spanish food is ample as the cuisine in the North is different from the South and having lived in different regions of the country he is demanding cook and eater.  Jose and I, together, provide a memorable food experience in our home that is outside the centre, giving another experience of Seville and Spain, that is out of the norm: a location that is surrounded by nature and open space.
