The world of food was new exciting. People like Alice Waters were educating the public. It was an exhilirating time for me. Michael was the manager of The Silver Palate, and we had great fun working together, sharing our passion about food everyday. That's what I did.
People think catering is all about the creative process, but it's so much bigger.
When I started my own catering business, I was young and naive and I didn't have a clue about it. I might not have done it if I had. Even 15 years later I'm still growing and developing my business skills. One of the toughest parts is knowing how and when to grow the business. Believing in yourself is paramount.
