Welcome to Yaqou.com
Where Passion Meets Flavor

Hi, I’m haiti yaqou, a woman whose journey in the kitchen began when I was just a little girl, standing on a chair to reach the counter while watching my mother and grandmother cook. The kitchen was my world, and every aroma, every sizzling sound, felt like pure magic.
From those early days, I realized that cooking isn’t just about food, it’s about love, connection, and creativity. Over the years, my curiosity grew into a lifelong passion. I spent countless hours experimenting, failing, learning, and finally mastering the art of bringing simple ingredients together to create dishes that tell a story.
Today, I’m proud to say my journey has taken me beyond the walls of my home. I now cook alongside an incredible team in restaurants, where we bring that same sense of warmth and creativity to the plates of our guests. Each meal is more than just a recipe; it’s a shared experience, a memory in the making.

The idea for Yaqou.com was born from this journey, but I didn’t create it alone. My friends and teammates, who have been my biggest supporters inside and outside the kitchen, encouraged me to share my love for cooking with a wider community. This website is the result of their encouragement and my dream to inspire others.
Here, you’ll find recipes that are approachable yet full of soul, dishes designed not only to satisfy hunger but also to bring joy to your table. Whether you’re a beginner in the kitchen or a seasoned home cook, my hope is that you feel right at home here.
So, from my heart (and my team’s kitchen) to yours, welcome to Yaqou.com. Let’s cook, share, and create memories together. 💛
