À propos de ce contenu audio

Welcome to my podcast and my journey. I grew up in England, mostly boarding schools. I moved to California when I was around 24 years old mostly because I needed the beach and the sun. I have dabbled in a few different things but the minute I began learning about wine and cocktails and pairings I was hooked. I started my own business with all things hospitality in 2019. I passed my Certified Sommelier exam in 2023 and my Certified Specialist of Wine a few years before that.

My goal is to learn and then help others understand the complicated world of wine and cocktails. At the same time I want to understand what those in the Hospitality Industry think and do. That is why I started this podcast last year in 2025. While I know we have a long way to go to get this show out there, I don't think I have enjoyed doing anything as much as this. I hope together we can see behind the pour, behind the mind, behind the thoughts of people who really do not have an easy job. They work like no other but once they are in front of the consumer, they put on a big smile and make it look easy. The life of anybody in Hospitality is certainly not easy and it takes a certain type of person to pull it off. I find it fascinating especially since I have been on both sides of the bar or table. Join me as I talk to more trailblazers in this world and I mean world.

    • Cooking Toward the Light | The Story of Chef Jeremy Cabrera

      Cooking Toward the Light | The Story of Chef Jeremy Cabrera
      Jan 13 2026

      Chef Jeremy Cabrera came from humble beginnings and learned from an early age that food was equal to life itself.

      At the age of 14, he found himself working in a commercial kitchen and immediately he was hooked on everything gastronomy.

      By 21, he was working in Las Vegas as an Executive Chef. Although this was a short stint, he learned valuable lessons. A while later, he helped open Petras Greek Taverna in Las Vegas.Jeremy believes food should be art — that's why it is called culinary arts, not culinary jobs. To him, food should be a cartoon on a plate. He is currently creating that plate, and many more, at Little Saint Restaurant in Healdsburg, California.
