I am a cookbook writer, Masterchef finalist, not-so-secret food nerd, and cat-mum, I have a passion for wholesome food and love joking around in front of a camera.

Hey there, I'm Philli Armitage-Mattin, your friendly neighbourhood culinary aficionado, here to sprinkle a little flavour and zest into your day! My journey into the world of food began with a curiosity for the diverse cuisines surrounding me. 🌟

Drawing inspiration from culinary experiences across the globe, I've cultivated a unique style that marries tradition with innovation - I couldn't help but fall head over heels in love with the magical world of food. Trained in the time-honoured techniques of classic cuisine, I infuse each dish with my own creative flair, resulting in culinary masterpieces that tantalise the taste buds and ignite the imagination.

But hey, it's not just about the food - it's about the journey, the stories, and the connections we make along the way. Whether I'm whipping up a classic French dish with a twist or experimenting with exotic ingredients from far-flung corners of the globe, every creation is a little piece of my heart on a plate.

Oh, and did I mention my passion for sustainability? Yeah, Mother Nature and I are pals 🌎🥰. I believe in using the freshest, veg-forward seasonal ingredients to create culinary delights that make your taste buds dance and leave a lighter footprint on our planet. I strive to empower others to embrace cooking as a form of self-expression and a means of nourishing both body and soul.

Most importantly food is about sharing and bringing people together. Food is more than fuel it the stories and joy shared between loved ones.

But hey, enough about me! Let's dive into the delicious world of food together and create some mouthwatering memories that'll have your taste buds begging for more. Sound like a plan? Let's get cooking! 🍳🔥
