More about me

For me, cooking is...

my love language. There is nothing better then to see a swoony smile from a satisfied customer.

I learned to cook at...

as a child I learned from my Gigi, from her I learned the grace and love for food, then I learned the craft from the world renowned Escoffier.

A cooking secret...

staying calm, and carrying out the task with grace and ease.
