Food isn’t just our business, it’s our life. Born with a generational love of food, I grew up bussing tables and hanging around the kitchen of my grandmother’s soul food restaurant. And you don’t spend your childhood working in an authentic soul food hot spot without learning a thing or two. Today, my recipes are a product of the downhome cooking I was raised with, made from scratch with wholesome, real ingredients.
