Toowoomba noodles! This dish brings together a rich, creamy sauce with garlic, shrimp, and bacon, all inspired by Toowoomba pasta—a Korean creation named after an Australian city. It’s savory, a little spicy, and totally satisfying. For an extra kick, I used Shin Ramyun noodles to bring some heat and bold flavor!
This comforting Vietnamese Opo Squash Soup (Canh Bầu) highlights the mild sweetness of trái bầu, or opo squash / calabash squash in English.

In celebration of National Moldy Cheese Day, I whipped up a delicious Cambozola Mac and Cheese. Cambozola is one of my all-time favorite cheeses. The sharpness of the cambozola adds a unique, tasty twist to classic mac and cheese, balancing the richness of the sauce with a deep, savory flavor. Perfect for any cheese lover looking to indulge in something special!
