OUR DEAR CHEF SILVIA!
I have over 30 years’ experience in the cooking industry. I started out in Vancouver at various locals, including the renowned Lesley Stowe Fine Foods for three years as a pastry and sous chef. After moving back to Prince George, I created and ran Café Voltaire at Books and Company for 11 years. I also worked as a baker for a number of years at Sassafras Savories. I now mostly work as a Care Aide but still take on Chefing gigs, especially at yoga retreats.
I am enjoying my time with the North Central Seniors Association in their Demo Kitchen.
