    Chez Nous

    Chez Nous, you'll find lots of "from scratch" recipes, new and old, from all different cultures … all delicious! I was raised by Southern parents in Europe and as an adult, have lived both in the South and in the Pacific Northwest. My taste in food has been influenced heavily by all three places and my curiosity about foods and cultures leads me to experiment with many different cuisines, from scratch and as locally as possible.

    Summer time .... and the livin' is easy.
