About the site’s author, Marie-Noel Ouimet
Food and travel have always been a big part of my life.
I am a French Canadian based in Montreal but I never say no to traveling!
I had the chance to visit many countries in Europe, Asia, Africa and of course North and South America.
After several years working in digital communications, I decided to make these passions my full-time job.
A foodie and a compulsive market visitor, I spend a good deal of my time in the kitchen replicating all the new dishes and flavors discovered elsewhere (sometimes with a lot of trial and error, I have to admit).
This is also why I constantly seek to improve myself, from a workshop to a culinary course, to a wine tasting.
My goal is to continue to learn and improve myself so that I can share with you the pleasure of cooking and discovering fabulous destinations here in Quebec and elsewhere.
