Hi I’M LILA
A self-taught cook from Asheville, North Carolina, now living in Durham. I didn’t grow up cooking—I actually used to burn toast! But somewhere along the way, I found joy in simple meals and the magic of figuring things out one recipe at a time.
Today, I teach beginner-friendly classes from my kitchen and love helping people feel at home in theirs. My goal is to make cooking less intimidating and way more fun. You don’t need fancy tools—just a little curiosity and a good sense of humor. I’m still learning every day, and I’m here to cheer you on through every win, flop, and delicious surprise.
