A month ago at a networking event event I drank a few glasses of wine and told the President of the Chamber of Commerce that I was a vegan caterer. What? The following day she told the owner of the coolest glass blowing school in town that I was a vegan caterer. A few days […]

One of the important aspects of helping to share vegan dishes with friends and family is to create flavor and food experiences that are similar to their non-vegan counterparts. Even if the flavor or texture is a bit different from what someone might typically recognize, I believe that getting them close enough to a known […]
