Who am I

Student. Creator. Food Lover.

I am an Edinburgh Napier Web development student who worked as a professional chef for over 7 years since I was just 16. to mix my love for food and my passion for coding, I created this website. The purpose of the website is to help university students across the UK with easy and affordable recipes
