About Chef Serge
Hi there, I’m Chef Serge — a husband, a proud dad, and someone who truly believes that good food has the power to bring people closer.
Where It All Began
My love for cooking started long before I ever wore a chef’s hat. As a kid, I would stand next to my grandmother in her cozy kitchen, watching her cook by instinct — a pinch of this, a handful of that, and always a smile.
One rainy afternoon, I tried to recreate one of her stews by myself. The result wasn’t perfect, but when I saw my family’s faces light up, I realized something I’d never forget: cooking is an act of love — a way to care for others, to connect, and to create memories that last.
A Family Story
Nothing about this journey happened alone.
My wife has been my biggest supporter since the very beginning — the voice that told me to keep going when things got messy (literally!). She’s the reason I decided to take my home recipes and share them with the world. She’s also the calm voice reminding me that food should feel like home, not pressure.
And then there’s our daughter — my favorite little taste tester and the real critic of our kitchen. She’ll tell me if the cookies need more chocolate or if the soup is “too grown-up.” Her laughter fills the kitchen, and somehow, every recipe feels better when she’s around.
My favorite moments aren’t the perfectly plated photos you see online, but the simple ones: the three of us cooking together on a Sunday, music playing softly, flour on the counter, and the smell of something warm baking in the oven.
Those are the memories that inspired SmartCookRecipes — a place built not just for food lovers, but for families who believe that meals mean more when they’re shared.
My Journey as a Cook
I never studied in a culinary academy. My school was life — learning through trial, error, and passion. From small family gatherings to restaurant kitchens, every dish taught me something new.
Over time, I discovered that the best food doesn’t come from complexity; it comes from care, creativity, and a little patience. That philosophy shaped every recipe you’ll find here.
