Welcome to JeNycEats
About Me
My name is Jennifer but most people call me Jen. I am a 23 year old college graduate/foodie/model/actress. I was born in Manhattan, NY and raised in Brooklyn. I used to work in the medical field but left mostly to pursue my passions: acting, modeling, and food blogging. I have loved food all my life and love to go out to eat, cook, and bake. Though I haven’t taken any culinary classes, I learn through family and friends, cookbooks, and television shows.
I am a 1st generation chinese american (the eldest) and was always surrounded by chinese cooking. Though I love chinese food, I also love to eat other types of cuisines and am always looking to try different types of food. I don’t think great food has to be expensive. I also try to have an open mind when it comes to food (and anything for that matters). My motto for everything is to try anything at least once.
About the blog
What you’ll find in this blog are restaurant experiences in NYC (ranging from affordable to once in a while pricey), and recipes from family and friends, cookbooks, television shows, and other food blogs. Included will be photos from my Sony Cybershot DSC-T5 and Sony Cybershot DSC-HX1. Although I have never taken a class, I love photography (from being in front of the camera and behind).
With everything said, I hope you enjoy what you find and be inspired to try different restaurants and recipes. Thanks for visiting and come back soon.
