Meet Your Chef: Victoria

What does your day-to-day role look like at France44?

-I split my time between coming up with and getting our weekly specials on the shelves, building catering orders, supporting all of our food production departments (cooks, butchers, bakers, and candlestick makers, alike), and working with the future Events team to plan and create new menus and programs for the concept.  I also drink a lot of coffee and sample a lot of tasty tasty France 44 food.

 

What restaurant(s) have you been to recently that really got you jazzed?

- I'm a ride or die Parkway Pizza fan. I get pretty jazzed about picking up a pizza in the way home every other week.

 

Outside of work, how do you like to spend your time?

- I'm a pretty hardcore gardener, which I lovingly dedicate most of my time to. I'm also a rock climber, a baker, and have year-round ice cream and boba dates with my favorite France44 alum.

 

How do you take your coffee?

- If I'm eating breakfast, I take my coffee black.  If I'm drinking breakfast, I'll take an oatmilk latte with caramel--might as well satiate the caffeine fiend and the sugar tooth with one hit.

 

It’s almost spring! What has gotten you through this MN winter and MN winter 2.0?

- n/a haha

 

What excites you most about our new event space?

- I'm thrilled to be working with the team we've put together for this space, and can't wait to see our plans and ideas to make this blank canvas into a concept that can bring our community even closer over hand-picked and crafted food and drink.
