Who is your culinary inspiration?It started with my grandma. She let us help her in the kitchen when we were very young. Since then any cookbook or cooking show has been so much inspiration. I worked in a couple of places with really great menus.
What would you do with the $25,000?First I would pay off some bills. Then I'd invest the rest in a small food truck my son and I could run that would have rotating menus.
