Issa Laroye

I've been a chef for as long as I can remember. Since I was a child my whole day revolved around the kitchen, because through out the day there was always some one in the kitchen of my home . That's where we gathered, that's where we did homework ,where we had our big sunday breakfast , and its where I discovered my art form. I combined flavors just as a painter combines colors. A splash of this, a dash of that ,forever perfecting and refining the artist within . Food was my palette. An amazing array of yellows and greens, of purples and even blue. I would love being called upon to "cook something up" ,to me, stepping into the kitchen on such a mission was as if I was called to conjure up a magical potion for which only I knew the secret to. And it still feels like that today even after 13 years of professional experience. I bring the magic with me when I step into the kitchen, it's a kind of feeling that my food inspires in someone that really makes my service stand out.

I enjoy most of all the joy my food brings to others. And yea, it may seem cliche to say, but its true. Noone is ever mad to see food!

And the creative process as well .I love to experiment with food, combine unusual flavors and truly give to the artistry of it all.
