Fresh & Local, Whole 30, and Eastern European Cuisine
Foodie, Mom, and lover of all things fresh and local, specializing in Whole 30 recipes, balanced with Eastern European meals and pastries.
Experience
After over a decade of managing and enjoying restaurants in Manhattan and Las Vegas, I am applying my love of cuisine to hosting dinner parties and pleasing the biggest critics, my toddlers. From farms (and vineyards) in the Hamptons, to our small-town butcher, marina, and local cheese shop, I love cooking with the freshest ingredients and trying new recipes and flavor combinations. I have followed the Whole 30 diet, both strictly and a bit leniently, to help with inflammation, sugar cravings, and fatigue for the last ten years.
I come from a family of chefs and bakers, who have influenced my most loved meals and recipes. My grandparents came from Germany to New York, where they owned a cafe. My dad is a lifelong chef and culinary teacher and my mom owned a Bed and Breakfast in the Hudson Valley.
