Hey there! My name is Lex and I am the owner of Seasoned & Southern. While I was born and raised in Durham, North Carolina, I currently reside and thrive in Atlanta, Georgia. Atlanta is where I really began to take my love for cooking to the next level.
I fell in love with the art of cooking from an early age. Watching my mother cook and bake, especially during the holidays, played a major role in my passion for cooking. Surprisingly enough, growing up my father owned a restaurant in Durham, NC where I would assist him during his work day. My parents definitely play a pivotal role in this journey and they are my inspiration.
Cooking is a form of self expression. When Iām in the kitchen, I feel free to dive fully into my creativity and craft new dishes and desserts. Growing up in the South, a lot of my expression comes through soul food, decadent desserts, and seasoned to perfection recipes. In May 2020, I created a YouTube channel and decided to use it as my creative outlet where I would post my cooking tutorials. My goal is to release a series of cookbooks, with the aspiration to have my recipes reach people all around the world. Stay for awhile and enjoy the Seasoned & Southern experience!
