About 2 Hungry Birds
Welcome to 2 Hungry Birds – A site about grazing board essentials and gourmet snacks, and the inevitable outcome of a decades-long friendship between two Danish Asians with a shared passion for good food.
Tina and Sanne went to highschool together, and while they both have Asian backgrounds, they were in different classes. They would meet at parties, they would talk, and they would laugh, but it wasn’t until years later that they became real friends.
That happens, when they accidentally bump into each other in the line outside Magnolia Bakery in New York City. Tina is now an architect and has moved to Brooklyn with her husband, while Sanne is working as an airline pilot and is visiting NYC with a group of friends. They all decide to go out for drinks the next evening. It’s incredible, what a round of Jägerbombs can do, and after a fun night out, Tina and Sanne are both determined to stay in touch.
The next time Tina and Sanne meet is in Tokyo, where dinner at a chicken restaurant turns into drinks and jazz at the New York Bar, followed by hours of very late night karaoke. After that night, their friendship is sealed.
Tina and Sanne soon discover their common interest in good food. Tina enjoys cooking and recipe development, and starts a recipe blog. Sanne is traveling the world, exploring local cuisines and sharing her adventures on her food and travel blog Mitzie Mee. Whenever Sanne is visiting New York (which happens often), they would make sure to meet over food, either in Tina’s kitchen, or at one of the city’s up-and-coming restaurants.
In 2018 Tina starts her company Hungry Bird Eats, developing her very own take on Danish knækbrød (crisp bread).
Fast forward to 2025. 2 Hungry Birds came together in late December 2025. There was no big launch moment or long planning phase. It simply felt natural to take what we already love and turn it into something we could build together.
The idea was to create a space where we share the products and places we genuinely like. From food and kitchen finds to restaurants worth talking about, everything on the site is based on what we’ve actually tried and would recommend ourselves
On the blog, you can expect honest write ups about the products and places we love. We’re always trying new things, from food products and kitchen finds to restaurants we think are worth your time, and we share what we like, how we use it, and why it stands out.
The blog is meant to be a source of inspiration, a place where you can discover new products and get ideas for what to try next. We make a point of supporting smaller brands and newer businesses whenever we can, especially when there’s a good story and a product that’s genuinely well made.
