The Project

I fucking love to eat. I came to the United States seven years ago from Honduras with limited exposure to cuisines from other cultures. At one point in my life I genuinely thought Panda Express was the cultural ambassador for Chinese food.  Living in Chicago for seven years dramatically opened my eyes to the never ending repertoire of options at my disposal. I am now a resident of New York City, and my access to international cuisine has tripled. This project is my attempt to explore and document the cuisine of all 193 UN recognized countries. I went through the list of countries and not gonna lie, I wouldn’t be able to point to where Bhutan is on a map; which will make this project not only a tasting journey, but a valuable geography lesson.  I’ve recruited my husband to partake on this project and serve as my eating partner throughout this world food tour. Can’t freaking wait.
