welcome to your hungry bff 😋
hi friend!
👋 i'm hungryhelen, and i'm really glad you're here.
in a nutshell:
Your Hungry BFF is a cross-platform media brand celebrating underrepresented chefs, comeback stories, and culinary identity. through dinners, essays, video, and podcasts, we champion the people who’ve fed others while healing themselves.
why this started:
five years ago, i moved from southeast asia to san francisco after a very tough chapter—no clear plan, just a gut feeling that something had to change. in that uncertain moment, i found that honest meals and genuine conversation were my lifelines.
what i learned:
throughout the journey of building startups, moving countries, and tackling new challenges, food has been my anchor. it's never just about what's on the plate—it’s about the people, the stories, and the connections that remind us of our strength.
where i am now:
now, living between new york and jackson hole with my husband, i'm focusing on using food to reconnect with what truly matters. i want to share those moments that ground us and help us see the simple truths in everyday life.
who is your hungry bff for?
this is a space for the quietly ambitious—those building, rebuilding, or simply figuring things out. if you’re looking for real stories, honest conversation, and food that feeds both body and soul, you’re in the right place.
what to expect:
every week, you’ll get:
real stories from people who have faced challenges and found their way back
food experiences that go beyond a meal, offering clarity and comfort
reflections on life, identity, and the simple joys that come from a shared table
a sneak peek at a private dining guide i'm quietly building, featuring honest recommendations for those in search of hidden gems
