Welcome to our crazy world of food and cooking classes where we teach real people how to cook real food. We don\u2019t pull any punches and we are about as real as two bitches can get. Try to guess who\u2019s crazier?.\nI\u2019m Chef Candace Conley and this is my partner in culinary (and other types) crime, Natalia Banjac. We\u2019ve worked in the food industry together for over 10 years; we are still besties and are still keeping it real.. So, we thought it was about time we shared that with you.
