A food blog about living a healthy & practical nutritional lifestyle
We are influenced by the several countries and their rich cuisines that we have lived so far…
…there is something positive in every situation they say. Suddenly we had more time to utilise by being locked and socially isolated. The pictures on the right are a small fraction of the items created during our lockdown.
You are navigating now through our lockdown baby: https://chefsatheart.com
Our aim is to inspire you to follow a healthy and practical lifestyle. We do love baking and we believe that can be made and enjoyed, occasionally; everything in moderation the say.
I encourage you to inspire us with ideas/share your feedback on the recipes and/or how we do things. Please be patient when looking for recipes: we are full time employees with a toddler and a demanding cat.
We aim to be uploading pictures instantly through instagram and uploading the recipes soonish post that on the website i.e. within a few weeks time since those were posted, if not immediately. So, if in a hurry for a recipe, please email us.
Hope you will find our lockdown baby useful, practical and inspiring.

Chef At Heart
…with opposite personalities and very different hobbies. We started dating in September 2000 in Cyprus, we had a long distance relationship for years, in Cyprus & Greece were we are both studying, and we made it to live together again in the same coordinates in 2008 in London, he proposed in May 2011, we got married in September 2013, our little one arrived in our lives in February 2019 & we relocated to UAE in November 2019.
What keep us together is the fact that we keep evolving together, we support each other in the good and not so good moments, our aligned values and principles and of course our cooking.. which is probably the most important ritual as individuals and also as a couple and our most persistent hobby that keeps evolving like we do… where ever this life or plane takes us…
…the beautiful Cyprus where we are from, in Greece, in the U.K. and now in the UAE. We love adventures and travelling and so far we have traveled to the West and to the Middle East and we would like to travel even more.
Sometimes we miss so much, the flavours from the beautiful island of Cyprus and the Mediterranean. Who doesn’t like feta, halloumi, oregano and olive oil? Who doesn’t like the nutty and flavoursome baklava?
And sometimes we do miss so much the flavours that have a hint of Britishness. Who doesn’t like a rich Sunday roast accompanied with a nice beer? Or some yummy trifle? Or what about scones accompanied with an afternoon tea and a splash of milk?
And sometimes we do love having a hint of the orient and Middle East. Who does’t like the fragrant ginger, cinnamon and aromatic oriental spices? Who doesn’t like a Pad Thai or an Indian curry? Or humus and labneh?
