Q&A with Valerie Moore, Owner/culinary Artist

What sets your business apart from your competition?

My business is one of only a few unique to Southern California that provide in-home instruction and demonstration cooking parties. Our menus include recipes that have been handed down from generation to generation. We offer a menu that ranges from comfort Soul Food to Thai Food with a twist.

What was the inspiration for starting this business?

I decided to start this business after completing my cookbook titled _The Dish, which is a collection of short stories and recipes that speak to how I came about developing and obtaining some of the family favorites. Completing the cookbook made me realize how great it would be to share the recipes with a live audience participating._

What’s your favorite part about your job?

The opportunity to create meals for people who enjoy the art of cooking, and to meet and make great friends.

Is there anything else you want to add that we didn't cover?

We like to tailor our menus to satisfy the client's desired atmosphere. We interview the client about their intended guests and the vibe they would like to create for the special event.
