Hi, I’m
Noah Baker

WELCOME TO MY FOOD BLOG.
I’M SO EXCITED YOU’RE HERE!

I have been a professional chef and restaurant owner for the past 20 years (give or take a few)! I live near Raleigh, North Carolina with my wife and son. I love to cook and bake, and I want to share my enthusiasm. Cooking is truly my passion, and I want to help you make it yours.
