Appetizers
Hi! I’m Ethan Reid!
A 28-year-old part-time barista, full-time vibe curator, and above all, an enthusiastic amateur cook living in Austin, Texas.
This whole adventure began with a bowl of very confused guacamole.
Two summers ago, I brought my now-legendary “honey-guac” to a friend’s backyard party. It was… a character-building experience.
A single bite earned me a gentle pat on the hand from my friend’s abuela and the realization that some souls are meant to enjoy food, not make it.
But instead of fading into the background, I leaned in. I laughed at the mess and decided to document the whole beautiful, blundering journey.
That’s how An Amateur Cook was born. Here, “amateur” isn’t a disclaimer. It’s the whole point.
