Hey hey. My name is Rick. Born in S.C., raised in Fla. as a child, Puerto Rico as a teen. So my culture is quite unique. I am married, 30 years, and have a wonderful son who is a kitchen manager/cook. He has the same passion for cooking as I do. Coming from a family of 6, 4 girls-2 boys, I was the one helping my mother in the kitchen. My love for foods and cooking began quite young. I do run a catering business and really enjoy doing dinner parties. My wife and I belong to a gourmet club here in town. I have tons of recipes and I hope to meet many new friends here and share recipes, ideas, and just good ole friendship. Please feel free to contact me anytime. How do we do that? Living on the coast seafood is my specialty. However, I enjoy venturing out and cooking foods from afar as I call them. I enjoy cooking Caribbean foods as I grew up there. Southern is up there also, but I have recipes from around the globe. Low country boils, oyster roast, frying turkeys, and Thanksgiving. Cookies at Christmas that are donated to kids homes. Having the worst critics in our gourmet club give me top reviews. First attempt at sushi rolls
