Meet Sam

Hi, I'm Sam.

My mom cooked to teach us where we came from. My grandmother cooked because it was how she said I love you.

I'm a Canadian designer who moved to Mexico and never looked back. Three kids, a very well-worn kitchen island, and two food cultures colliding every night for dinner. My mom's Cantonese cooking and my mother-in-law's Mexican cooking share the same table here.
