Veni Vini Vici is the personal wine and food blog of Debbie Shing, a twenty-something Chinese-Canadian from Vancouver (now living in Toronto!) with some writing chops and a passion for all things delicious.

She is currently pursuing her WSET (Wine & Spirits Education Trust) Diploma, having recently completed the Advanced level with Distinction.

A lady of many languages, Debbie also speaks fluent French and Cantonese, can carry a conversation in Portuguese and Mandarin, and wrap her tongue around enough Japanese to not get lost or go hungry in Tokyo.

Naturally, she enjoys travel and adventure, and besides being a [Ed.: pretty damn skilled] hobby chef, is also an avid practitioner of yoga and scootering neophyte.

Mission Statement

Veni Vini Vici believes there’s a drink for everything.

With that in mind, Veni Vini Vici’s goal is to provide beverage pairings for any and all types of food. If it hasn’t yet been featured on this blog, send us a quick e-mail!

Bon appétit!

Cheers!

  1. I’m very impressed with your website. I’ve cruised a lot of different wine blogs, but yours really stands out–great style and panache. And your photos show that you have a good eye for quirky and interesting details.

  2. Hi Susan, thanks for your kind words! Next time I am in the Okanagan I will be sure to pay a visit to your winery. Thanks for reading!
