When I opened the Kitchen 3yrs ago, it was to bring people together around food-to help builds community, learn (new) skills, and to give chefs/teachers an opportunity to show off their talents. I thought of it as an experiment and I wasn’t actually sure the ideas and projections on paper would become the reality. The Kitchen has become that and more and it wouldn’t be this amazing 3rd space if it wasn’t for the generous community that continues to support us, the ridiculously cool and dedicated team of chefs that bring you unique classes and a welcoming experience, and if you’ve taken a class you’ll be impressed with the young teens that assist our chefs and spend hours cleaning and washing dishes. As a small biz owner I have learned ALOT about management, organizing, finances, and often fighting with imposter syndrome…but every year I’m more confident and sure in my “why” for opening up the Kitchen. Here’s to 3 more years, and more! Thank you to everyone that came out tonight to celebrate and for those who couldn’t but sent very sweet messages. Side note, why is my hand up on my hip in every photo “when I dip, you dip, we dip”- anyone get that reference?
