Allen loves to create gastronomically wonderful food. He can easily whip up a delicious meal from scratch. The very first time he tried cooking was the time he made macaroni and cheese from a box. And that was when he was 12 years old and has been cooking ever since. Allen thinks that he got his talent for cooking from his Dad, who was great at preparing wonderful meals too.

Lately, Allen has been experimenting on how to make ice cream. He has successfully made vanilla ice cream on the first try and has been doing complex flavours such as strawberry and rocky road flavours. Allen also bought a brand new convection oven and it has been keeping him busy. He had been making chocolate chip and mint cookies, banana loaf bread and Bundt cake.

A lot of Allen’s friends have been wondering how he can cook so much for just one person and not gain weight. Well, what they didn’t know is that Allen has another secret. All the extra food he cooks and bakes, he gives it away. Allen has an old neighbour who lives alone; he constantly cooks for her every time he can. On some days, he takes all his baked goodies to a local orphanage to share with the kids.
