Hi, I’m Vanessa. Half-French. Half-American. All Foodie.
I’m a home chef who learned much of what I know cooking with my mother in France, but also studying at Peter Kump’s cooking school, now the Institute of Culinary Education in New York.
This is my new site where I am slowly bringing over hundreds of recipes from chefdruck.com. This is the rebirth of my testament to a life of feasting.
15 years of content takes a long time to migrate. Please enjoy the gradual relaunch of French Foodie Mom: a recipe repository.
Let the feasting begin again!
