I'm Jenny I'm a chef based out of New York City I went to culinary school here in Manhattan as well at the Institute of Culinary Education I actually come from a background of management consulting but quickly realized that my stomach is kind of where my heart is so I've moved into the food world and I finished my externship at market table here in West Village and now I'm doing food and beverage development at lapan quotidian so I love to cook because it's something that I think just brings people together it's very pure and it's also a very giving thing I think you're really sharing something you're sharing a part of what you believe in what you feel how you think about things what you like to taste I mean everybody's taste palate is very different and you're sharing that unique part of you with someone else and so I think it's just really fabulous and if you want to find out more about me or get in touch with me you can find me at my website jennife acecomm so hopefully this Howcast series has inspired and powered you to try some of these new Asian recipes at home I think they're really fun I think they're really easy and they're probably a nice change up to what you've been having recently
