Janine Magyar

Janine Magyar grew up in a family that cooks… Her mom valued the early frozen convenience products (fish sticks & Tater Tots on babysitter nights), while her grandmothers let her gain hands-on experience with “easy scratch” helpers. It also helped that she grew up in the San Joaquin Valley in California where school field trips included a dairy, cattle ranch, cattle auction, chicken farm, meatpacking plant, fruit/vegetable cannery, and many local farms to harvest our fruits and vegetables.

But her true love is in serving food (and wine) which led to a career in hospitality that included 100s of weddings, holiday parties, conventions, corporate retreats, cocktail parties on yachts, and even Mickey Mouse shaped pizzas.
