“It’s called the ‘Papa Tax’, papa pays for the food, he gets to snack as much as he wants,” Alexis Ohanian jokingly declared during Lingo’s Spike Session last year. That playful claim was in response to Serena Williams asking who’s most likely to steal food off plates. But fast forward to now, and it looks like the tables have turned! In a hilarious twist of family kitchen dynamics, a recent candid moment captured Serena and Alexis struggling to keep little Olympia’s hands away from the food. So, what’s cooking in the Ohanian-Williams kitchen this time?

Just a while back, Alexis Ohanian gave fans another delightful peek into the Ohanian-Williams kitchen, where family time sizzled just as much as the food itself. This time, Papa Ohanian was on grill duty, cooking up some juicy pig meat for the entire clan. Sharing the behind-the-scenes fun, he captioned the candid clip, “Prepping pork butt (which is actually shoulder—who named this?!) for the fam. Featuring: Olympia taste-testing straight from the serving plate, Serena documenting the madness, Adira just enjoying the moment… and one very hopeful dog lol.”

The video felt like a cozy sitcom episode as Olympia watched the meat with wide eyes and a mouth already watering, while Alexis adorably clarified, “Fun fact, Olympia, this is referred to as pork butt, but it’s not actually the butt, its the shoulder. And this is the shoulder bone, the really delicious part. And there’s how we prepare it, we just pull it apart,” to which Olympia grinned and nodded, soaking it all in. And just when Serena tried to sneak a slice off the plate, Olympia playfully pushed her hand away and said, “No.”

Later, the chef turned to Olympia and asked, “Olympia, would like to try a piece?” With the sweetest little “Yay!”, she dove in joyfully. Meanwhile, baby Adira got her taste as well, while Olympia, never one to miss out, sneakily grabbed another bite. Seeing that, Alexis further added, “Okay, oh, Olympia – we are not eating right off the serving plate, my dear.”

To be honest, the kitchen chronicles of Alexis Ohanian and little Olympia are nothing short of legendary, and they just keep getting sweeter. Take last week, for instance, when the 41-year-old brought a slice of his Texas adventure home with his signature Papa Pancakes, putting a fun twist on breakfast by shaping them like floral cowgirl boots, Olympia’s new favorite gift from dad. It was a morning full of giggles, syrup, and good ol’ cowboy spirit.

Or rewind to March, when he proudly captioned a video, “Jr was working that griddle this morning! #PapaPancakes about to be OlympiaPancakes,” showcasing his mini chef flipping pancakes like a pro.

Lately, the Ohanian-Williams kitchen has felt more like a full-blown family sitcom with delicious chaos and heartwarming laughs. But beyond the sizzle of the stove, Alexis often shifts the spotlight to the green, where another story quietly unfolds: could little Olympia be teeing up a future on the golf course?

Alexis Ohanian shares moments from the green golf course

Just about a couple of weeks ago, Alexis Ohanian once again welcomed fans into his treasured Sunday rituals, sharing a heart-melting carousel of family moments on IG. One standout snap featured a pancake made with love by little Olympia, another chapter in their endearing Papa Pancakes tradition.

But the true scene-stealer? A beautiful three-generation moment on the golf course. Alexis, his daughter Olympia, and his father, Chris Ohanian, shared smiles and swings on the green, turning the day into a heartfelt family affair. Posting the pictures on Instagram, the Reddit co-founder wrote, “Another day on the course with the fam 🥰.” Alexis kept the vibe alive on X as well, cheekily writing, “Sundays are for family. And golf 😏.” 

This wasn’t Olympia’s first time teeing off with Dad, though. On her birthday last year, Alexis proudly shared a glimpse of his little champ owning the greens. Dressed in a chic pink top and white miniskirt, Olympia looked every bit the budding golf star, gripping her club like a natural. But here is a playful twist: those clubs, a special gift from none other than Uncle Tiger Woods, quickly became too small for her growing swing!
