About the Author

Alejandra and Jamison are a wife and husband duo with a love for taking restaurant-caliber recipes and bringing them to the home kitchen in a fun and approachable way. Having first met while working at a farm-to-table restaurant, they have a deep passion for the culinary industry that translates to their everyday lives.  Alejandra is a food photographer and stylist with a passion for meals that tell a story, and Jamie is a trained chef and recipe developer with 15+ years of experience, having worked at restaurants such as The Inn at Little Washington and Market Table Bistro. Together they have a lot of fun and creativity, not just in the types of recipes they develop, but also in executing bespoke and intimate catering events.

The blog is all about being approachable for the home cook, like Alejandra, and remarkable for the chef inside all of us, like Jamison.  Based in Northern Virginia, they enjoy visiting the best wineries and breweries around, taking daily walks and exploring locally sourced ingredients. They believe that each meal, no matter how simple or elaborate, deserves to be a special moment and should be an inspiration.
