    Elsa de Brosses

    CO FOUNDER

    Growing up in a family deeply rooted in French tradition, food, and wine, Elsa has spent a lifetime caring about not only cooking, but where her ingredients come from, and their impact on those she cooks for. Her passion for the culinary arts is passed down by generations of talented cooks, from her grandmother in rural France, to her father, Chef of Chez Panisse, to her. Whether she is catering a 5 course meal or making crêpes with her two daughters, creating a heartwarming and genuine experience, is always at the core of what she does.
