Hello Everyone Welcome to my kitchen, Let’s talk cooking, let talk food, Let’s Eat. First, off let me tell you a little about myself. I was born and raised here in the state Florida and have lived here almost my whole life, but I‘ve been around quite a bit too working season in Colorado, Europe, the Mediterranean and Mexico and the list goes on, but Florida is where I hang my hat it is HOME. I've worked and played in restaurants since I was a kid, and I got my start in one of the best places my uncle’s restaurant in Frankfurt Germany that’s where I caught the bug. All through high school, it was fish houses and resorts on the beach, even making salads at Bern’s steak house in Tampa. I got my first big break when the smokehouse at the Mullet Inn in Tampa exploded, and I was next in line for the job of smokemen Now let me tell ya a little about Florida, it is somewhat different here, you might have had to actually lived here to notice it, but Florida has its own style of cooking, add the abundance and diversity of ingredients available in Florida to the influences from the Caribbean, Mediterranean, Spain, Europe, Asia and the Deep South, and you really have it, Florida has it all! I truly believe it, Florida things are different here! Over the years I have come up with countless interesting dishes as well as pilfered many a recipe from the places I worked and made them my own(as one of my ancestors may have said “pilferage goes a long way don’t ye know”) So if you Need a recipe... Just ask Hook! Need to know the meaning of something in a recipe... Just ask Hook! (On the other hand, you can Google it yourself) Need party ideas... Just ask Hook! Need to impress that special someone and his or her family... Just ask Hook! I want to thank all of you for stopping by to visit and please come back as much as you like as I will be posting recipes from time to time for your enjoyment The Cap’n

My Interests



I'd like to meet:


.. You scored as Captain Jack Sparrow, Roguish,quick-witted, and incredibly lucky, Jack Sparrow is a pirate who sometimes ends up being a hero, against his better judgement. Captain Jack looks out for #1, but he can be counted on (usually) to do the right thing. He has an incredibly persuasive tongue, a mind that borders on genius or insanity, and an incredible talent for getting into trouble and getting out of it. Maybe its brains, maybe its genius, or maybe its just plain luck. Or maybe a mixture of all three.

You are The Magician

Skill, wisdom, adaptation. Craft, cunning, depending on dignity.

Eleoquent and charismatic both verbally and in writing, you are clever, witty, inventive and persuasive.

The Magician is the male power of creation, creation by willpower and desire. In that ancient sense, it is the ability to make things so just by speaking them aloud. Reflecting this is the fact that the Magician is represented by Mercury. He represents the gift of tongues, a smooth talker, a salesman. Also clever with the slight of hand and a medicine man - either a real doctor or someone trying to sell you snake oil.

What Tarot Card are You?
