About Chef Sasha

Sasha is a professionally trained pastry chef and adventurous home cook, who focuses on the seasons to create locally inspired dishes. She supplemented her income while in college by working in restaurants on the savory side, and was inspired to attend the Professional Pastry program at Tante Marie’s Cooking School in San Francisco. She’s been immersed in the Bay Area restaurant scene ever since, working at Bay Wolf, Garibaldi’s, Café Rouge, and others. Always at home in the classroom, she returned to her alma mater where she was the instructor for the Professional Pastry program for several years. The act of cooking brings her joy, be it choosing produce at its peak, imagining how both sweet and savory ingredients will complement each other, or knowing how good food brings us together and nurtures great conversation and living.
