Hello! Welcome to dontmissmyplate.

Thank you for visiting the website! I'm Maxine, blogger, home cook, soon to be food entrepreneur, and lover of all things food and fusion cuisine (a style of cooking that combines ingredients and methods from different countries, regions, or cultures). My approach is primarily rooted in both a Zimbabwean and American perspective based on my life experiences, making it quite varied. I hope you find the website helpful and come back! There is something for everyone, and recipes are designed to inspire you to try something new.

Jeni's Splendid Ice cream - 14th Street, DC

Jeni's Splendid Ice cream - 14th Street, DC

One of the best ice cream spots in town. It was a blessing they moved to DC. Jeni’s has such unique, bold flavours it is hard to go wrong. Although on the pricier side, every lick is worth it.

Founder Jeni Bauer’s combination of whole ingredients and grass-fed cattle pays off in the final product. A warning about this location - be prepared to wait in line. Everyone else can taste the difference.
