About Table for Two by Julie Chiou

I started this blog in 2011 because I needed a creative outlet from my full-time job. I’ve always been a very creative person (my background is in web development and design), and my full-time job wasn’t giving me much of that. I was becoming frustrated and creative folks like me need an outlet to flourish; so I used my web development and design skills to carve out this little space on the Internet!

My passion for food dates all the way back to childhood where instead of watching cartoons, my mom had on Julia Child or Yan Can Cook on PBS for me to watch. I was constantly in the kitchen trying to help out and shadow my mom. As I grew older, the passion of being in the kitchen and feeding others never dimmed; instead I was ignited with the desire to love people through food. I would say food and keeping you full is my love language.

I believe that food brings people together and helps create long-lasting memories. There’s a reason why we all gather in the kitchen, go out to eat, cook together, etc. — food is the common denominator!
