Hi there!
I’m Maricel, I am a food blogger and a wife to Tim living in Winnipeg Manitoba, Canada. I was born and grew up in the Philippines and moved to Canada in October 2003.
Here you will find my version of recipes inspired by multicultural cuisines. Mostly Filipino/Asian/Canadian/American/Italian/Mexican/Mediterranean etc. Cuisine, with step-by-step cooking video tutorials.
I love food and travel, and I have a passion for cooking, baking, and home decorating. Because of my interest in cooking and managing a business, I took and graduated Bachelor of Science in Hotel and Restaurant Management with courses in International Cuisine and Advanced Baking. For most of my career, I worked in restaurants, other food establishments, and retail.
I am behind the recipe development, videography, and photography of this food blog. I am currently not using a professional camera. I used my phone to shoot these recipes and do all the editing. Some videos are not well-edited, I am still learning, so forgive me for that😄. I am the only person doing all the work while I still work with my husband’s business.
I started creating these recipes on October 15, 2019, while I was working full-time in retail. I started posting these recipes on Maricel’s Recipes Facebook page and my YouTube channel, to record and share my favorite recipes and family recipes. Some of the Filipino recipes I learned from my mom (nanay) and grandma (Lola Nene), were inspired by them.
Many of the recipes on this website are my version of popular recipes around the world. Some are recipes I have developed over the years or recipes I modified due to personal taste and the ingredients available. I believe that by being creative in the kitchen we can create and recreate simple, economical, and delicious recipes.
Stay tuned for more recipes and follow me on my food blogging adventure.
Thank you for stopping by.
I would like to dedicate this website in memory of my parents.
