    Desserts

    As far as I’m considered, dessert gets to be it’s own meal. Not only that, dessert gets its own stomach. That’s right, the rest of your meal goes into your stomach, but you always have a little extra room in your dessert stomach.

    Hi! I'm Riz.

    Do you ever think back to that recipe someone special cooked for you? Mom's spaghetti? Grandma's pie?

    On Chocolates & Chai, I worry about perfecting that showstopper of a recipe so that you can rediscover, and share that feeling with the people closest to you.
