Behind The Recipes

Hello Foodies!

My name is Saima, though a lot of you know me as thehungrycoderr!

I grew up in Dhaka, Bangladesh, and later moved to New York for school. At first, I studied biology and even got accepted into pharmacy school – but something shifted in my heart. Instead, I took a leap into coding school and eventually worked as a full stack engineer (that’s where the name thehungrycoderr comes from!).

Through it all, cooking was my constant. I’d share recipes on my personal Instagram, and soon enough, friends and family were asking for more. What started as a little side passion has now grown into this space a home where I can share my recipes, stories, and love for food with all of you.

I believe food is more than just what’s on the plate it’s culture, memories, and connection. And I’m so glad you’re here to be part of this journey with me

Meet Tasho

Named after my beloved Nani, my maternal grandmother, whose kitchen was the heart of my childhood. I spent countless afternoons at her home, watching her cook with love, care, and intention. Even today, we FaceTime often, sharing stories and recipes. Tasho is my way of carrying her legacy forward bringing that same warmth, comfort, and connection into your kitchen.
