Who is hiding behind the page?

Hi, it’s me! My name is Lucija (loo-see-uh).

I was born and raised in Zagreb, Croatia, and since then have moved around a few places. But of all, I loved living in Milan, while enjoying best pastas in the world, and now I’m shivering in the windy and rainy Amsterdam, trying to make the comfiest recipes to keep me warm!

I’m a self-taught cook and baker who loves to explore and try out new recipes from all around the world!

My comfort food is most often between Continental, Mediterranean and Italian food, as it just makes me dance in the chair with every bite I take! But I’m not a stranger to Asian cuisines as well - as long as there’s no fried bugs or something like those!

I am somewhat picky and sometimes very hard to please when it comes to food, so I like to use fresh and seasonal ingredients when available for the best flavour!

I hope you will join me in this food journey and give my recipes a try!
