A good gathering can bring together many of the very best things in life: good food and drink, friends and family, music, celebration and community. At the heart of Passport Kitchen we aim to make sure all of these elements make their way into your home. We look forward to sharing with you our love of food, drink, and hospitality!

Chef Samantha Tilley draws inspiration for recipes and menus ideas from her travels and experiences to engage in a global culinary conversation.  Her dishes pay homage to her favorite food cultures and memories, while showcasing the ease in of 30min dishes.

About Passport Kitchen

Welcome to Passport Kitchen — where cooking takes you places.

Passport Kitchen is your gateway to global flavors and culinary traditions, brought home. Founded by Samantha Tilley, our mission is to connect you with the soul of each region through unforgettable, immersive dishes and accompanying dinner party plans you can host in your own kitchen.

Each month, we unpack a new destination with:

  • A featured regional recipe (the "hero" dish)

  • Authentic side dishes, desserts, and drinks

  • A downloadable dinner party kit for 6–8 guests

  • Step-by-step recipe cards, prep lists, and cultural context

  • Video tutorials and affiliate recommendations for tools and ingredients

Our tagline says it all: Cooking that takes you places.

Whether you're exploring the vibrant spices of Morocco, the comfort foods of Italy, or the umami depths of Japan, Passport Kitchen helps you turn your kitchen into a passport to the world.

Let’s cook the world, one country at a time.
