I noticed I have a few new followers here and I wanted to take a minute to introduce myself and invite you to our in person kids cooking class at Shaws Candy this summer!

I am Chef Sandy, owner of La Petite La Petite Cuillère. The kitchen has always been the center of my family and home. From my childhood in San Diego, to my home in San Francisco, and all of the places i've visited along the way, my most beloved memories are of friends and family coming together to prepare and share delicious food. Over thirty years ago, I moved to San Francisco to pursue a law degree at UC Hastings. Fulfilling my dream to help people and children in need, I practiced family law for several years before deciding to limit my legal work to volunteer opportunities and dedicate the majority of my time to raising my own two children, Jessica and Rob.

I have taught cooking classes at Town School and spent a four-year term managing the Town School Lunch Program, assisting with menu planning, staffing and managing the volunteers to feed over 400 boys a hot lunch in a period of 90 minutes. I did the same for the Hamlin School in 2005. I have taken countless cooking classes, with culinary icons and home chefs alike, and trained at Le Cordon Bleu, the Culinary Institute of America, Sur La Table, Tante Marie’s Cooking School, and with many other chefs during travels abroad. In 2010, I finally decided to take the leap and pursue my true passion: cooking and educating children.

I founded La Petite Cuillère and I am now lucky enough to spend my time teaching and empowering students to express themselves creatively, by taking simple ingredients and using them to create extraordinary meals.
