I'm Spica! Cooking has always been a passion of mine. I love exploring new flavors and making food that brings people joy. I have a knack for experimenting with unique flavors and sauces (ramen night is always an adventure!) and pay close attention to detail when it comes to taste, rather than presentation. I'm always ready to learn, adapt, and put my heart into every dish I make. I look forward to creating a warm, memorable dining experience for anyone and everyone that wants to eat! I worked as a line cook at the Saddledome for a little over 2 years.
