Who is your culinary inspiration?My inspiration is the moment someone pushes back from my table full and smiling. Food is ministry. A satisfied guest is my standing ovation.
What would you do with the $25,000?I'd launch Sunday Dinner — a weekly supper club where one dish, one table, and one evening turns strangers into community.
