Who Am I?
I’m Chef Mark, a professional chef with over 15 years of experience in the culinary world. My journey began in my grandmother’s kitchen, where I first discovered the magic of cooking. The aroma of freshly baked bread, the sizzle of spices in a hot pan, and the joy of sharing a meal with loved ones sparked a lifelong passion for food. Over the years, I’ve worked in bustling restaurants, cozy cafes, and even ventured into food styling and recipe development. Now, I’m here to share my love for food with you through Darckal.
