Hi, I’m Lucy and I love to eat, did you guess?

Food is life and I live to eat good food. I grew up watching my dad cook the most delicious food and my favourite place in our home was always in the kitchen, learning all of his recipes. I cooked my first meal at the age of 9 and haven't stopped since. My mum had her own special way of cooking too and she always made the best Chinese desserts tong shui and silken tofu-fa. My parents are definitely the biggest influence on my love of food. 

Born in Hong Kong, and raised in London as a baby, I am lucky to call both cities my home. I speak fluent Cantonese and terrible self-taught Mandarin. Growing up, I spent plenty of Summer holidays in Hong Kong. Memories of navigating down the bustling street markets with a skewer of fishballs in one hand and a freshly made coconut milk with sago in the other, are still vivid.   

I met my husband in 2007 and we got married 5 years later. We had the time of our lives in Japan during a 2 week honeymoon to Tokyo > Kyoto > Osaka > Okinawa. Our beautiful baby boy arrived in 2016, bringing us endless happiness and fulfilment. There really is no love stronger than a mother (and father!) and child. 

I am now a full-time mum juggling with blogging, running an online wedding shop and bakery business. I've never been happier.
