Let's Dish With Linda Lou

Linda Lou Hamel

Hello, thank you so much for stopping by. I'm Linda Lou, a single parent of a beautiful daughter named, Melissa. She's now currently, continuing her education, while living in San Fran. CA. Myself, I live in Orlando, Florida, in a great neighborhood known as College park. I learned how to cook at a very early age from my mother, who was from England, also my grandmother, who was from Italy. Two very different types of cuisine. I believe, that both styles shine through in my recipes. Living in such a warm climate, I'm lucky enough to be able to grow all my own herbs. As often as I can, I take advantage of our farmer's market, where I buy seasonal and local ingredients. I've lived in Orlando for many years and watched the culinary industry grow beyond belief. We have great chefs and terrific cuisine all over the state. I'm going to be sharing my recipes, my life, and giving a peek into the culinary world of two cities, Orlando and San Francisco.
