Who is your culinary inspiration?My grandmother..she taught me how to cook at a very young age. She still tastes my food to this day.
What would you do with the $25,000?I would take my mother and my grandmother on a cruise. None of us never been and my grandmother hasn't been to a beach and she's 92 yrs young. And of course with the rest, I would like to invest; in anything that will allow me to learn, cook, and serve great food to others. My joy first comes from watching people eat & enjoy my food. My food is the joy in enjoy.
