My name is Tilly, and I love to eat, talk about, photograph, and cook food. I also love to tell stories, and make people laugh. Ever since I was young, I’ve loved to cook with my friends and family. It was my father’s (who happens to be a well trained chef) personal mission to educate my palette so that I would only eat healthy and tasty foods for the rest of my life… He succeeded. The whole blog thing started when my bosses from my summer internship would ask for restaurant recommendations around LA, where they could take clients and friends. I’ve been lucky enough to do lots of traveling and eating at different restaurants around LA, San Francisco, and New York. So, during my last week of work, I made a whole list of restaurants with short reviews and personal stories. After reading my list, a few people in the office encouraged me to start my own blog, and after surveying my family and friends, I decided to give it a go. Of course, I never would have concoted this clever tag line if it weren’t for the continuous support of my friend Bryan. I hope as you read this, you have a laugh or two, learn something new, or get inspired to cook something different and delicious. So here it is, Tilly With a Side of Fries, Bon Appetit!

Tilly, it was such a pleasure to read your blog. I am a friend of Nadia. I have written a cookbook, meant for my 3 sons (Nadia & I have that in common). I call my cookbook, “Love & Dishes from Mom.” But, lots of people are using it and I’ve gotten terrific feedback.
I think if I had written it today, I would have begun with a blog like you. Also, I appreciate your wonderful photos. I do have a question, unrelated to food, if that’s all right. This November I will be traveling to Barcelona just for a couple of days enroute to Israel. I would love to know of any hotel you would recommend. I want to take in a couple of museums as well as introduce my husband to the work by Gaudi. I know you’re busy, but if you have any suggestions, I would really appreciate it. Thanks so much.

Dear Tilly,
Thanks for the lentil soup recipe. I made lentil soup for VBS this week and everyone enjoyed it so much. I poured two lbs. of lentils in the pot with some water and the pot was almost full in the morning. I also made hummas and everyone enjoyed it so much. It’s addicting. Avi helped me this week and she got to keep the leftover beas. It sounds like you are having a busy time with all this traveling. Take care. I love you. Aunt Pat
