Who or what inspires you to cook?

My own inspiration to cook is deeply rooted and influenced by my desire to create amazing food that leaves my clients wanting more. As well as pushing myself to try new inventive recipes.

What's your all time favorite dish to make?

This is a hard question. There are so many. People ask me this all the time. I will give you my top three that I absolutely love to cook. #3- Smoked spare ribs with my own special sauce I have coined Buffa-Q sauce #2- Mole Negro #1- Chicken and Andouille sausage Gumbo

What would you do with the $25,000?

I have owned and operated my own Private chef and intimate catering business for three years. I would use the prize money to expand my business and attain the equipment and marketing necessary to make my expansion successful.
