Hello! My name is Esmie Benjamin, and I proudly call the vibrant community of 161 Block Y New Housing on the West Coast Demerara home. As a dedicated cook, I have a deep passion for whipping up traditional Guyanese dishes that remind us of our rich cultural heritage. From the savory aroma of pepperpot simmering to the sweet scent of pineapple chow, my kitchen is where I celebrate the flavors of our diverse roots. I believe that every meal tells a story, and I strive to share those stories through my culinary creations.
Growing up surrounded by the beautiful landscapes of the Essequibo Islands-West Demerara, I've always felt a strong connection to the rivers and communities that make our region special. Local legends and tales shared around family gatherings remind me of our resilience and the spirit of togetherness that defines us. Whether it's a visit to the Pomeroon River or a bustling market trip, the essence of Guyana is always present in my life.
As a member of the diaspora, I cherish the bonds formed with fellow Guyanese around the world. It's heartwarming to connect with others who understand the pride of our heritage, whether reminiscing about the days in Jones Town or discussing the ongoing journey of our nation. I invite you to join me in exploring the flavors and stories of Guyana, as we navigate our shared experiences and celebrate our culture together.
