Chef's Table

Cooking is said to be therapeutic. In today's hectic world, unless we engross ourselves into something relaxing, will be crazy, by the end of the day... So just get into the kitchen & try to be creative using your imagination. It need not be anything grand, just something simple & satisfying. The measurement in the recipes are as is used by me. Please adjust to suit your own taste.
