“Luisa has a way of telling a story that’s nothing short of entrancing.” —Deb Perelman, author of The Smitten Kitchen CookbookChocolate and Zucchini.  101 Cookbooks. The Julie/Julia Project. In the early days of food blogs, these were the pioneers whose warmth and recipes turned their creators’ kitchens into beloved web destinations. Luisa Weiss was working in New York when she decided to cook her way through her massive recipe collection. The Wednesday Chef, the cooking blog she launched to document her adventures, charmed readers around the world. But Luisa never stopped longing to return to her childhood home in Berlin. A food memoir with recipes, My Berlin Kitchen deliciously chronicles how she finally took the plunge and went across the ocean in search of happiness—only to find love waiting where she least expected it.

    loved this one. i vaguely remember reading this book when i was in high school, but it was so different this time around. luisa weiss is a food blogger and writer and she wrote her memoir but centered the stories around food an certain recipes which she would put in the end of the chapters which i thought was so fun!
    i also found the book really relatable as she grew up between germany and the US, and also spent some time in paris - and i found it interesting to see how she dealt with that and how tricky it can be at times to navigate different cultures. it was so interesting to see how different the book was to me reading it now than a few years ago as i understand some of the things she went through differently.
    really enjoyed this one!
