Very often people ask me what lead me to the gastronomy. My connection to cooking was a matter of survival. I was sleeping in the kitchen since I was 12 years old. It was the end of the soviet times. The situation was very hard. We barely had food variety, and my mother didn’t know how to cook… After she passed away, I had to take care of myself. I was only 14. Arriving to Israel I had to take care of my meals as well. Most of the kids arrived on time to school, I was always late 10-15min, because my breakfast was a breakslow: it was important to eat good, so I prepared my fresh baked pancakes, cut the fruits, made a fresh orange juice. And during my work, after my graduation, I took the longest breaks: I didn’t eat in front of the computers, but I was dedicating my time to eat healthy. Moving to Paris was a matter to put 1 plus 1 together: I was in the heart of the gastronomy and I understood where I should invest my passion and talent: cooking became my life.
