THE KOOKIO JOURNEY

THE GOOD, THE BAD AND THE UGLY - AND EVERYTHING IN BETWEEN.

Forget the destination, take on the journey

Led by creativity and passion, we created this space to share our learning journey in the kitchen.

Exploring our favorite dishes, experimenting with different ingredients and cooking styles while using fine *ss gear...simple, raw and real.

HEY, THIS IS US

Hi! I'm Jessica and I love cooking! It's my space to create tasty, nourishing meals, guided by my cravings. I explore various flavors and styles, always cooking up something new. My family has a background in restaurants and cake shops, so maybe my passion for cooking and baking is in my genes. I enjoy making savory dishes and baking, focusing on healthy yet delicious choices. Join me in transforming cravings into wholesome, delightful meals. Let's start this tasty adventure together!

Hey there, I'm Mimi! As a soon-to-be mom of two, life's a whirlwind of work and family. My sanctuary? The kitchen, where I experiment with everything from intricate recipes to quick, trendy dishes. My culinary journey started at 18 during my Hospitality studies with a stint in Culinary Arts. Though I'm no chef and have forgotten much, my love for cooking is ever-growing. Now, I'm embracing baking! Motivated by the pandemic baking trend and as a busy mom, I'm intrigued by baking's unique blend of simplicity and complexity. Expectations are humble, but I'm excited to learn and share every step – successes and flops alike. Let's enjoy this baking journey together!

Hi, I'm Bobby from Kookio since 2018, passionate about food and nature. Cooking is more than meal prep; it's an artistic expression, a cultural journey, and a celebration of nature. Here, I'm building a community for everyone, from seasoned chefs to beginners, to explore and enjoy cooking's magic. Join me on "Bobby's Natural Grilling Adventure," where we'll share stories, experiences, and the joy of cooking while embracing nature's bounty. Let's embark on this delicious and natural culinary journey together!

Hello, I'm Luis, a BBQ lover who's moved from FOGO Charcoal to Kookio. My passion for BBQ was kindled in a big, lively family where weekends were about love, laughter, and incredible food, thanks to my Uncle, the Grillmaster. Now, as a new dad, I'm eager to bring these joyous BBQ traditions to my own growing family in our garden, our new BBQ haven. I'm excited to start creating the ultimate BBQ garden, and I invite you to join this journey. We'll dive into delicious recipes, set the perfect BBQ atmosphere with music, drinks, and games, and share stories, challenges, and victories. Let's embark on this BBQ adventure together and light up our grills!
