Schooled by 40+ years working in food and drink, my days are spent searching out great stuff from market and farm, making meals to be eaten without hurry. Having lived in a handful of countries throughout Europe, my travels have covered nearly 50 countries shaping a lifestyle committed to fresh, clean food, crafting recipes easy to embrace.

Keeping it as simple as I live it: good food and full days, all washed down with something worthwhile. It's all about the food, along with the markets, small farms and artisans where it's found.

Private Events, large or small, crafting meals and their settings to assure for memorable occasions. Through thoughtful consultation, menus are crafted with your "wants and "wishes" in mind to best present flavors that match your tastes, amid tables that reflect your style. Reach out, let me share some thoughts on what your next special occasion can be!

Time is split between my old stone property on the outskirts of the tiny village of Charmé in southwestern France and my native San Francisco Bay Area. When off for a wander to some other place on the planet, you can be sure that'll be tossed into the mix as well.
