#171: Thai-Style Sausage & Rice Dressing

#171: Thai-Style Sausage  & Rice Dressing

For this last recipe this Nostalgic November, I wanted to share one of my favorite Thanksgiving recipes from my childhood. Normal bread stuffing/dressing is already quite delicious and is one of my most favorite Thanksgiving foods. But, with this Thai-flavor inspired version, the spiciness from the Thai peppers and the herby fragrance from the lemongrass… Read More

#117: Thai Roasted Chicken And Sticky Rice (ข้าวเหนียวไก่อบ)

I’ve been wanting to do this recipe since the beginning of doing this cooking show, but I, for whatever reason, waited until now to make it. Thai Roasted Chicken and Sticky Rice, or ข้าวเหนียวไก่อบ, is one of my favorite dishes from my childhood, and it’s something that I would get every time I went to… Read More


#116: Homemade Pumpkin Pie

#116: Homemade Pumpkin Pie

For our first recipe for this month, I wanted to wrap up our accidental string of pumpkin recipes with a classic recipe for this month in particular. Pumpkin pie is one of my favorite things to eat during the holidays and it always reminds me of my childhood, where we’d have pumpkin pie along with… Read More


#169: One Pan Egg Toast

#169: One Pan Egg Toast

For this nostalgic recipe, I actually wanted to highlight one that was popular across social media about 5 years ago. Given the recipe’s simplicity, it’s no wonder that it was a hit back when everyone was locked up in their homes with nothing better to do. 2020 was only a few years ago and not… Read More


#119: Lobster Butternut Squash Ravioli

#119: Lobster Butternut Squash Ravioli

I was trying to think of a really special recipe to end this year’s round of Nostalgic November dishes with, and after thinking back on the dishes I’ve enjoyed in the past, this ravioli dish came back to memory after reaching back to my childhood. Specifically, this ravioli dish came from the same restaurant I… Read More


#118: New England Clam Chowder

#118: New England Clam Chowder

I’ve always been a fan of New England Clam Chowder ever since I was young. In fact, one of my earliest memories is of when my family and I went to a pier off the coast of California and ate some clam chowder in a bread bowl. I remember it being super cold that morning,… Read More

#111: Homemade Potato Chips

#111: Homemade Potato Chips

Whenever I think of road trip snacks, Potato Chips are one of the first things that come to mind. With it being easy to grab one or two chips at a time while still driving safely, it’s quite the convenient snack while on the road. However, because chips are typically quite high in calories, I… Read More

#138: Nopales (Cactus) a la Mexicana

Originating from the Americas like almost all cacti, nopales, or the pads of the prickly pear cactus, have been a great and important source of nutrition and have been a culinary staple from the time of the Aztecs to even now. This ingredient is such a great source of vitamins and minerals, as well as… Read More

#93: Reyn’s Gourmet Cabbage Parcels

If you weren’t already aware, the Xenoblade series is one of my favorites, so for this last episode for this month and to celebrate us finishing up the game for The Variety Show, I thought it would be fun to do a recipe from the first game. Though, the problem with that is that there… Read More


#129: Sticky Asian Ribs

#129: Sticky Asian Ribs

With our third round of Frugal February, I wanted to focus once again on meals that I like to make when I need to save some money and save some time as well, in terms of active cooking time as well as time spent getting new stuff from the grocery store. One of these simple… Read More


#69: Naughty and Nice Chocolate Bonbons

#69: Naughty and Nice Chocolate Bonbons

Bonbons are one of my favorite things to get during Christmas time. When I was younger, we used to get these assorted chocolate boxes from a Southern Californian chocolate store called See’s as gifts for Christmas. I think they’re more well-known now, but as a child, I always thought they were such a luxury. The… Read More


#107: Homemade Beef Jerky

#107: Homemade Beef Jerky

One of my favorite things to get on long road trips is beef jerky. The pure protein is a great way to stay energized and satiated on long drives without the sugar crash from other popular convenience store snacks. But, with the high salt content, you might be taking a bit more pit stops than… Read More
