Personal Chef Menu
I'm a fan of cooking vegetarian cuisine (I'm not a vegetarian myself, I enjoy a steak with caramelized onions and blue cheese). It allows me to be creative with my veggies. I have a few vegetarian clients and this was one menu that I enjoyed putting together.  
We look forward to cooking for you!

Volunteer Moment
Light My Way Inc.
I'm a do gooder (if thats even a word). I get a rush when I have the opportunity to share what I know with others. Light My Way Inc. hosts an annual career day where I helped a bunch of elementary school kids at PS 179 make fruit kabobs and tell them what it takes to be a chef.

Shout out to teachers its not easy!
