Hi, I'm Jennifer

Sharing meals together is the quickest way to immerse yourself into the local culture.

That's a travel truth I really learned after I opened my own catering business in 2002. When I wasn’t cooking up creative meals for my clients, I was traveling the world for culinary inspiration to bring back home. With my chef’s eye—or, really, palate—leading the way, I would seek out experiences that were deeply rooted in a sense of place. And nine times out of ten, those experiences involved food!

From hunting for banana ketchup in St. Kitts, to tasting some life-changing whipped burrata in a bustling Madrid market, my culinary encounters were consistently the highlights of my trips—and they almost always lead to me swapping kitchen stories with the farmers at the market, the pastry chefs leading my macaron classes, or the waiters shaving truffles over my pasta.
