Meet the Business Owner

Kate B.

Business Owner

I’m Kate. I have been a passionate chef for years. No, I did not acquire my skills through Cordon Bleu or The Culinary Institute of America. I learned how to cook from family, traveling, and students. I was a teacher for almost a decade and one thing that really inspired me to take my passion for cooking a step further was an Ethiopian student who took interest in my daily lunches. She sent me to her family’s restaurant, they sent me to their favorite market, and this was the beginning of my Taste the World cooking adventures that often take up hours of my nights and all my counter space. Cooking is fun, it’s romantic, and it’s important to be purposeful about what you put into your body. I left teaching and now cook weekly meals for wonderful families, including their children! I also very much enjoy seeing people come together for food and conversation. Talk to me about how I host pop-​up dinners in my classic craftsman home, or how you’d like me to cook for your own dinner party!
