Culinary: Cilantro With Ginger

Cilantro with Ginger

So many of you know, I am an Architect, professor, and food lover. Based in Boston, from Jersey. This is my new platform for a test kitchen of recipes for my up and coming cookbook, as well as any great restaurants/bars I find along the way. I’m trying to help students and recent grads cook delicious, inexpensive, and innovative food.

Although I have been on a very long hiatus from Archeyes, I will be back on track posting more soon.  Archeyes will still be a platform for Architectural expression and experiences. 

Phenomena: Arch Vanguard Gala

The Master of Architecture class of 2010 wanted to instill new traditions  at our school.  I was in charge, with a team of 2 others to design, coordinate, and create the Arch Vanguard Gala for 90+ individuals.  The design our team decided would envoke ideas of change, innovation, and a reflection to the past.  

We designed the atmosphere to be reminiscent of the avant-garde era of architecture because of the new and unusual methods and ideas the designers used and developed.

Recipe passed down from my Great Aunt.  Triple Berry Pie.  For more architectural culinary ventures click here.   I have found that architecture and cooking can collide together.  Both inspire me through design.
