Chef Tishante N

Growing up in a Jamaican household oxtail made Chef Tishante’s heart sing, but she also has a thing for tacos.

They both make her dance. Graduated culinary school at the top of her class with a 3.9 GPA, the kitchen is her comfort zone where she is most relaxed and excited to create.

Hailing from Clifton New Jersey, Chef Tishante is a family-loving game night type of vibe.

Growing up in the kitchen with her mom ignited her interest in food. She has grown to be a leader for her employers, often traveling to train new staff.

The best education starts in a childhood kitchen.

Food has always been a gravitational force in her life. Growing up she’d always be the one in the kitchen watching her mom cook or helping her with small things like grating cheese for mac-n-cheese or helping put together the lasagna.

Chef Tishante believes that life is more fully lived when we are eating well.

For her, “well” doesn’t just mean healthy, it means delicious, experiential, and comforting.

That’s what she strives for in the kitchen.

Fun Fact: She’s really good at doing makeup and hair!
