Michael Natkin has been a vegetarian since 1984. He is actually a software developer by day who turns into a foodie by night. As someone passionate about bringing big flavors and good culinary technique to vegetarian cooking, Michael has eaten his way around the world and has also interned at a restaurant. Each post tells a short story with fancy-looking food but simple recipes. We love the creativity that comes through in his recipes, and the variety of ingredients and flavors that he draws from, which inspired and equipped us to try more meatless dishes.
