Hello! Welcome to dontmissmyplate.

Thank you for visiting my website! I'm Maxine—a food blogger, home cook, travel enthusiast, and all-around lover of food and culture. In other words, I’m passionate about fusion cuisine—a style of cooking that blends ingredients and techniques from different countries, regions, and cultures.

My approach is shaped by both Southern African and American influences, reflecting my life experiences and making my recipes diverse and dynamic. I also love traveling and sharing my food adventures with you, from what I ate to where to eat, while discovering new flavors and techniques along the way.

I hope you find this website helpful and inspiring. Whether you're looking for something familiar or eager to try something new, there's something here for everyone. Enjoy exploring, and happy cooking!

How do you go wrong with poke? An array of fresh fish and vegetables lined up for you to pick from. One of the best places to get the Hawaiian/Japanese dish in the DMV.

This location in Rockville is at the Asian cafeteria the Spot but there are others around the DMV. Poki DC is one of many tasty meals. Definitely check out Poki DC for the freshest tasting ingredients.
