culinary exploration

Follow me through the adventures that take place in my kitchen, in restaurants or in other kitchens. Cooking and food are my passions and I want to share my experiences of cooking, baking and eating with you.
I'm a Greek self-taught cook who lives in Chicago. I learned a lot about cooking from both of my grandmothers, my mom and dad, family and friends. Passing on timeless traditions through food is one thing I strive to do in life.

These are my journeys through culinary exploration...

Sea Scallops in a Bacon Mushroom Sherry Cream Sauce from Glenn’s Diner
Took my mom for a quick Friday night meal at Glenn’s Diner in Ravenswood.  They have between 12-14 fresh catch fish dishes that change daily on their menu.  Our server recommended this dish because of the sauce - and he was right, it was delicious!
