Marcelle Richards founded the Gastropacalypse Test Kitchen in February 2008 in Madison, WI. Inspired by feedback from friends who had tasted her cooking, she came out of a post-graduation funk by hosting a series of community style dinners designed to test out her recipes on participants. The GTK has since transitioned to a web-based project still steeped in the fun and passion she derives from making and eating food. Here, you’ll find Marcelle’s home-crafted recipes, media clips, and foodie musings.
Marcelle has an appropriately titled BS degree in Zoology from UW Madison, and also received training through the culinary arts program at Madison College and on the job as an intern at L’Etoile Restaurant in Madison. When Marcelle isn’t playing with food in the kitchen, she enjoys food blogging and writing. She is the Our Plates writer for Our Lives and regularly contributes to the Isthmus as a cooking columnist, restaurant reviewer, and occasionally, as a features writer.
