I admire people who can write beautifully, especially about food, and that’s one of the reasons why I admire Carolyn Jung, A.K.A. Food Gal, a food and wine writer extraordinaire. Food Gal is an award-winning food blog about recipes, restaurants, celeb chefs, and everything food and wine related. I love great food writing and that’s why I am often glued to Food Gal, secretly wishing that I could write half as good as Carolyn. Please welcome Carolyn at FoodGal.com to Rasa Malaysia and let’s celebrate her black bean Brussels sprouts recipe. It’s truly a great honor to have her here!
