About Me

Hi there,

Thank you for stopping by my digital kitchen notes. I started this So Yummy Recipes because I wanted to preserve all the cooking knowledge that I learned over the past three decades.
All the recipes I share here have become staples in my household. No doubt, they have been tried and tested by super-picky eaters like my boys.
My wish is that these recipes will make more people smile as they do to me, my family, and friends.

Devy is a seasoned food writer and digital creator driven by a simple belief: the world’s best flavors shouldn’t require a plane ticket or a culinary degree. She founded So Yummy Recipes and Drizzling Flavor—digital spaces where she shares her love for all things delicious. Her mission is to prove that anyone can recreate timeless traditions and modern fusion dishes using simple, daily ingredients from their local grocery stores.

Her works have been featured in Reader’s Digest, Al Jazeera, MSN, Yahoo, Bon Appétit, and more. Originally from Indonesia, she now calls the rainy city of Manchester, UK, her home. Her perspective on food was profoundly shaped by her travels across Asia and Europe, particularly her time living in Japan. It was there that she truly learned food is the ultimate universal language.

When she’s not busy curating new recipes, managing her digital platforms, or keeping up with her sons, she finds her joy and inspiration in the beauty of nature. As an avid solo hiker and runner, she believes a long walk or a 5k jog outdoors can always recharge her creative spirit. She also enjoys a quiet moment curling up with a brilliant book or digital book. Sometimes, she watches Korean or Japanese drama series too. For her, whether she’s rambling on a mountain trail, buzzing in her kitchen, or lazing in her living room, it’s all good as long as it creates happy bubbles.
