Hi and welcome to Tara’s Multicultural Table! My name is Tara and I currently live in Northern Virginia (again!) with my husband and our two children.
I developed this blog in 2012 as a way to organize my recipes and create something for myself while staying at home with my (at the time) six month old son.
What began as merely a hobby has turned into so much more and I love being able to share my creations, favorite cookbooks, and travels with all of you.
I was born in Misawa, Japan into an Air Force family. We moved to Germany when I was a year old and I spent my early childhood there before permanently settling in the United States.
Those short years overseas made a lasting impression on me and I have had the urge to travel for as long as I can remember.
I met my husband in high school and through his family I was exposed to many wonderful Filipino dishes.
I love watching my children experience new places and flavors as they get older. They now get excited about upcoming travel and it has become so much fun planning our trips and adventures together.
Along with recipes, I will be sharing some of these adventures with you in case you also plan on traveling to these areas or wish to live vicariously through the food in the meantime. Thanks for visiting!
