Author Notes
There is something special about Autumn! When it’s a bit nippy outside and I can hear the children playing in the colorful leaves, I just love to hang out in my kitchen! I especially love to bake savory tarts or roast a chicken for dinner. Pissaladière is a savory, Provencal onion tart layered with olives, anchovies, and herbs. Serve it cut into little rectangles for a delightful & crowd pleasing party appetizer. Pair it with a salad and soup for a healthy lunch or light main course. —onetribegourmet

Hi I'm Sara and I love the art of food & travel. I have a blog called One Tribe Gourmet, where I share my passion for global cuisine and my travel adventures around the world.
I have always felt that food is the most common denominator that crosses all boundaries and brings people together. The ritual of “Breaking Bread” in every culture is a special bonding experience.
Personally I love to experience different cultures through there cuisines! My goal here is to encourage an individual who is interested in learning different global cuisine yet is a bit intimidated by it. I am here to help you, all you have to do is open your heart!!!
