Ketchup N Soy Sauce

Welcome, everyone, to the new postings of Stephen Owens (ketchup) and Ilyana Kano (soy sauce). We're so glad to have you join us in our blog journey. Let us, first, introduce ourselves; get to know us a little better.

Ilyana- Hello, I am a 22 year old Japanese girl/women/lady (whatever you'd like to call me), youngest of three girls, and born in São Paulo, Brazil. Of course, you may wonder, what is a Japanese girl, born in Brazil,  doing in America? Well, short story short, immigration led my family to Brazil, then father's job led me here. Fair enough? Anyways, the reason for my joining in this culinary blog is to share my love of writing stories about the kitchen and all the recipes that I have tried, am trying, and will try.

Stephen- I am a 22 year old young man from the little place called Red House, West Virginia.  At a young age I developed a passion for cooking (mostly ramen noodles and pizza bites) and a love for all things food.  My work at "The Diner" and journey through the Queen City has led me to accomplish many things with some of the industry's best.  I want to share my passion for the culinary arts by sharing my thoughts and ideas in the kitchen and at the table.

Currently, we are both living in Saratoga Springs, New York. We both moved here, together, to start our new jobs at The Country Corner Cafe, and wanted to create an outlet for us to share our experiences of cooking new ideas, as well as, possible culinary adventures in New York and surrounding areas. It is our first time living in the Northeast and we'd like to document our times here.

So here's to our new grand adventures. Please feel free to comment on any recipe's or adventures we post, and also, any recipes you'd like us to try or create? As a new pastry chef at the Cafe, I am open to suggestions to help the creative juices flowing. (Also, if you're in the area, come and say hi !)

Cheers and Kanpai
