Welcome

Hi. I’m Liliana. Welcome to my little Italian kitchen under the Australian sun. Here you’ll find recipes that come from my Italian roots mixed with the multicultural melting pot of my Aussie home. I love to share stories about food and travel. I’m always dreaming of Italy, have a passion for the ancient world, and when not in the kitchen you will find me in a good book or two.  I believe food connects us to each other and there is nothing better than good simple food placed in the middle of the table for everyone to share. Hoping my recipes bring a little piece of Italy and joy to your table.

Welcome to my little Italian kitchen in sunny Australia. My family originates from the Italian region of Calabria, and my food reflects my roots as well as the multicultural pot of my Australian home. I am a writer, traveller, cook and eater. My cookbooks are a collection of family recipes and twists on Italian favourites.
