About
I will be teaching an ethnic dish (Jamaican)that isn't very common this part of the United States, but well liked and enjoyed when consumed.
I have been self employed since June 2013 and have many culinary accolades and awards issued by the Fort Worth Weekly Food Critics The Star Telegram, 360 magazine etc. I won the best Caribbean Latin flavor for 2 years, Hottest Restaurant in the Spring of 2016 just to name a few. The Star Telegram described me as "The Caribbean Queen" and the "Chew on me"show invited me to be one of their guest.
I am an excellent Cook coupled with over 15yrs experience in training with YUM Brand , a Certified Hospitality Trainer(CHT), Certified Hospitality Supervisor American Hotel and Restaurant and a Bachelor in Hotel Management and Food & Beverage. With my experiences, and skills will ensure the classes are fun, detailed and very practical.
It brings pleasure when a student excel beyond his or her expectation. The outcome of the meals are superb, mind blowing , plates are emptied - total satisfaction and are talked about for a long time.

Frequently asked questions
What is your typical process for working with a new student?
Usually we share information to maintain a certain level of comfort. Find out how much the student knows about the culture, food and people. This information is very important. If the student has no knowledge of the above I will educate them on the culture, food origin and the natives, especially where they originally came from, language, music and drama/tradition. This will create some excitement prior to the commencement of cooking the dish/dishes or probably deciding the choice of dish/es
