When it comes to food, I love everything about it! I adore Farmers Markets, love eating and trying to re-create (with my special touch) different origins of food so I can be well diverse in my styles of cooking. My approach to cooking is to make simple delicious meals for everyday life. I believe that REAL food is medicine. Good for the heart, body and soul and can create happiness! I try to eat organic and whole foods most of the time; keyword being "TRY", because while I am thoughtful about what I eat, I am also realistic. I can't imagine a life without bread and cheese! So I eat them. And cheat days, they aren't all that bad as long as you're using nutritious ingredients. Live life, have fun doing it, and try everything once!
This mindfulness about food all started when I was a child, actually while doing a science experiment. A science experiment that went over all the different artificial preservatives, flavors and colorings in food. Also pointing out potentially harmful possibilities from trans fats, high fructose corn syrup, and MSG. Little did I know that experiment would change my whole outlook on food for the rest of my life! Sadly, that was well over 20 years ago, just imagine the preservatives and unknown ingredients that is being put into food now-a-days! I believe food should be delicious AND nutritious, so I am committed to providing with the very best ingredients!
As a graduate of the Culinary Institute of America and having over 20 years working in multiple types of culinary establishments. Fine Dining, Casual Dining, Fast Casual Dining, Diners, Cafes, Bistros and Pubs. Experienced in Mexican, German, American, Italian, Korean, Thai, Chinese, Japanese, Middle Eastern, Caribbean and some Indian. I think it is safe to say one of my happy places is in the kitchen, sharing food, sharing love, and creating memories. When you love what you do, you never work a day in your life. Let me cook, so you don't have to!
