What is the story behind your business' name?
As a catering chef I was simply known by Chef Shawndee, I wanted to keep name identity. I also wanted to get the point across that I am a mobile catering KITCHEN, not just one type of food. 'Comfort' food has a different meaning in each culture - I enjoy learning from those cultures and using my french cooking techniques to bring different versions of comfort cuisine to my customers.
