Nonna Pauline from Trinidad, West Indies
Pauline often reminisced about the delightful aromas wafting from her mother’s kitchen as she cooked all the Island foods. As a young mother Pauline wondered what could she leave her children? What would be her legacy? She questioned and pondered these thoughts. Her spirit leaped as she recalled how certain food scents were able to evoke wonderful memories that bought her back to the time, place and people involved. Her aha moment! That’s when she began to dabble more in the kitchen by experimentation and duplicating traditional West Indian dished that her mother made for her and her sister. Since then she has had the pleasure of cooking for friends, family and guest who have been enraptured by the taste, and textures of her tantalizing Trinidadian dishes.

Ploumitsa from Chios, Greece
Γεια σας. Ονομάζομαι Πλουμιτσα. Κατάγομαι από τον Άγιο ΓεώÏγιο Συκουση που βÏίσκετε στο νησί της ΜυÏοβολου Χίου. Μεγάλωσα στην Χιο με τους γονείς μου και τα Ï„Ïία αδÎλφια μου. Από μικÏή μου άÏεσε πολυ να φτιάχνω γλυκά αλλά η μαμά μου ήθελε να τα κάνει όλα μόνη της. Στα 24 ετών, παντÏεÏτηκα και μετακόμισα στην ΑμεÏική. Δεν ήξεÏα να μαγειÏεÏω τίποτα, αλλά ο άντÏας μου, που ήταν και εκείνος από τον Άγιο ΓεώÏγιο Συκουση, και η Θεία του, με Îμαθαν να μαγειÏεÏω.
Κάναμε Ï„Ïία παιδιά, και τα στείλαμε σε Ελληνικά σχολεία. Επειδή δεν εÏγαζόμουν όταν τα παιδιά ήταν μικÏά, είχα καιÏÏŒ και μου αÏεσε πολυ να μαγειÏεÏω τα Ελληνικά φαγητά που Îφτιαχνε η μητÎÏα μου. Στα γÏαμματα που μου εστελνε, ÎγÏαφε πως Îφτιαχνε διαφοÏα φαγητά και ακολουθοÏσα τις οδηγίες της. Σιγα-σιγά εμαθα να φτιάχνω τα ωÏαία φαγητά της μητÎÏας μου.
ΤωÏα που τα παιδιά μου Îχουν μεγαλώσει, και ο μεγαλÏτεÏος μου γιος εχει παντÏευτεί και Îχω εγγονό, ÎÏχονται στο σπίτι και τους φτιάχνω τα ελληνικά φαγητά και γλυκά που τους αÏÎσουν.
ΘÎλω να μάθουν όλοι τα φανταστικά πιάτα της Ελλάδας. Γιαυτο είμαι τόσο ενθουσιασμÎνη που θα παÏουσιάσω μια γεÏση της Ελλάδας σε Ï„Îτοιο ωÏαίο εστιατόÏιο. Ο Ï€Ïοστάτης του χωÏÎ¹Î¿Ï Î¼Î¿Ï…, ο Άγιος ΓεώÏγιος, με κάλεσε πισω κοντά του στον Άγιο ΓεώÏγιο του Στατεν Άιλαντ.
