I am Ruby and I find food magical.

Food has the power to transform an evening, silence someone with a perfect bite, or be the pinnacle of a day. I love everything about it—being around ingredients, exploring dishes, poring over menus, and imagining how different ingredients can come together to create something new, and of course I love people who love food, too.

I am partial to produce that is sustainably grown, I love breakfast radishes with salty butter, cinnamon-y coffee cake with an espresso, lightly steamed seasonal vegetables dressed simply with lemon juice, olive oil, and salt—especially when that combo hits the perfect equilibrium of shimmy-worthy goodness. I love a good yogurt sauce and appreciate when a producer nails their craft: Noosa circa 2017, La Salumeria, Superhuman Granola, Marco Colzani’s Pistachio spread, or anything from Hungry Ghost in Northampton, MA.

Maybe you love some of these things too and we can talk?!

I've been cooking in and out of restaurants in NYC and Tokyo since I was 16; While I haven’t always documented what I make, I’m working on it—and this website is a part of that effort.

I’m also passionate about recipe development, cookbook creation, food media, and sourcing.

Feel free to reach out—I’d be delighted to chat!
