WHAT YOU GET
All menus are created by Founder and Executive Chef, Vanessa Lauren, who has worked with several of LA’s top chefs including Ludo Lefebvre, Curtis Stone, Jon Shook, Vinny Dotolo, Tim Carrey, Ben Ford, and Marcel Vigneron. In addition to working with amazing chefs, Vanessa has participated in several special events including cooking dinner at the James Beard House, Sundance Film Festival, Dinner Lab, and Summit at Sea.
Vanessa is motivated by a social responsibility to help improve the symbiotic relationship between Mother Earth and the modern world. She continues to inspire others on the benefits of quality ingredients and the value of community service.
