About the Author

This blog originally started in 2011 as a joint effort between two friends, Chelsea and Sariann. Sariann is now cooking up a storm at home and occasionally abroad, and after running The Broken Tulip alongside her husband David in Richmond, VA for several years, has relocated to Scotland where she is living her best life. You can follow her exploits on Instagram.

When she’s not actively working on a new cookbook, Chelsea is still balancing mugs of ale and savory recipes here at The Inn. You can follow her on Twitter or Instagram, although the latter is mostly pictures of pets, renovations, and weird bugs- consider yourself warned.

A lifelong artist and fan of fantasy, Chelsea discovered her love of interesting food during a year living abroad in Turkey. Like the literature and fictional settings she loves, Chelsea’s work is a synthesis of imagination and historical research. Applying her multifaceted creativity to that passion has led her to a career of transforming imaginary foods into reality. She greatly enjoys foreign languages, treasure hunting, history, and all things related to honey. She and her husband live in an old Vermont farmhouse with her husband, daughter, cats, honeybees, and an assortment of poultry.

    Just heard you two on the Podcast of Ice & Fire. This site is awesome! I live in Boston so if you ever need somebody with a huge appetite to destroy the evidence of a failed meal, I’m your man.

    I just stumbled upon this website searching for a recipe for scotch eggs. The fact that I found one AND the website is GoT inspired is an amazing find and has brightened my day. I am now a loyal follower.

    thanks!

    So, seems like you ladies are in the UK? Having a medieval themed Thanksgiving this year and going to some of these amazing dishes, including the creme swans! Awesome!

      We’re actually based in Boston, but because we are both big Anglophiles, are always delighted to be so misplaced. :) A few of these recipes will also be making it to our Thanksgiving Day tables for sure. Let us know what your finished menu looks like!

    I just bought your cookbook for my girlfriend (possibly not the wisest move when I’m trying to lose weight, but what the hey), since we’ve both followed your blog for the longest time. We both really love what you’re doing here. Thank you for bringing all that mouthwatering food out of the pages of ASOIAF.

    p.s. I’m also fanatically United.
