What’s cooking?
Hi. Welcome to YumFood – Recipes, Restaurants and Reviews.
Taj Exotica Resort & Spa Mautitius
A large part of my life is my passion for gastronomy.
I find cooking completely relaxing and a great way to wind down at the end of a busy day. I also love serving the food I cook to my guests. Dinner parties and social events centred around food are my favourite!
Dining is such an integral part of our lives whether we choose to celebrate it or not; and for me there’s nothing better than enjoying a good dining experience.
I hope you take the time to try and test some of my easy to make recipes; and, if you do, please give me feedback on how you feel the recipes can be tweaked.
For more information please feel free to contact me at jadeallen1@gmail.com
Happy cooking!
