I have lived in this wonderful city for over 20 years and am happy to call New Orleans my home. Cooking will always be my first passion. I also enjoy soccer, traveling, biking, swimming, & love the outdoors. Manchester City is my team.
I was born on the island of Mauritius, which is in the Indian Ocean near Madagascar and South Africa.
I am a classically French trained chef. I grew up with Creole,Asian, African and Indian home-cooked dishes. I am also a sommelier and really enjoy white burgundies, Pinot Noirs, and Washington state red wines.
Please inquire about my availability to create a special menu during your stay, wine tasting, or a cooking class using house-grown herbs, peppers, local ingredients, & local seafood.
I have a cookbook called "Tropical Latitude".
It's about cooking with the tropics from Africa to Brazil, Caribbean, Southeast Asia, New Orleans and quite a few recipes from Mauritius. If interested, I have copies at the house for $29.99.
