About the Chef
I was raised in a traditional Turkish family, which ignited my lifelong passion for cooking. After completing numerous culinary courses in both Turkey and Vancouver, I honed my expertise in Turkish and Mediterranean cuisine. In 2006, I launched my catering business, and in 2017, I opened Lara Cuisine Cafe Bistro & Catering in Ladner, BC. We enjoyed a successful six years, navigating challenges like the pandemic, but ultimately closed the restaurant in 2022. I am now focused on my catering business and work as a private chef for home gatherings and special occasions. My goal is to introduce you to the essential ingredients of Turkish cuisine and guide you in preparing and combining them in various ways. I aim to create a fun and relaxed environment where you can learn basic cooking techniques and discover some culinary secrets, all while mastering the art of crafting a delightful Turkish or Mediterranean meal to share with your loved ones.
