Who is your culinary inspiration?I would have to say my Grandmother,Nannie Pitts, everything she made was better than anyone else's food always! My dear friend ,Ann Kirkmyer, who trained in Paris to become a well known and successful Chef in the Northern Neck. She worked for me at my Restaurant and as her Supervisor and expeditor I learned French sauces, Plating the food and much more!
What would you do with the $25,000?Pay my debt off first then put money down on a pontoon boat so I can take my Airbnb clients for boat cruises with a meal prepared watching the Sunset!
