With a great sense of humor, Chef Jernard has been called, “the young Barry White of food.” He is the author of the Amazon’s best-selling cookbook 88 Ways to Her Heart: Cooking for Lovers from the kitchen to the bedroom. His new book focuses on cooking demonstrations and helpful tips in the kitchen as well as terrific ways to start sparks in a new relationship or keep the sparks sizzling for those already in love.

Chef Jernard opened his 5th restaurant, Bon Appetite Bistro, in April 2009 in Ringgold, GA. Chef Jernard’s compelling and inspirational personal story includes:

• Growing up in Mississippi, his father taught him how to maneuver through the kitchen before passing away.
• To help support the family, Chef Jernard began a restaurant out of his family’s kitchen when he was just a junior in high school. It immediately became a success and within a couple of months his fledgling business was bringing in thousands of dollars a month.
• He founded two successful restaurants in the Memphis’ metro area before moving to Ringgold in the summer of 2006.
• On Father’s Day 2007, Chef Jernard and President Barack Obama were two of the featured guest chefs at th 20^th Anniversary Celebration for the Real Men Cook event in Chicago.

Chef Jernard also has a line of sauces and can be seen throughout the community and country doing various events and media appearances.

Notable chef, Robert Dorsey, has been a part of the Bay Area restaurant scene for over two decades. A Berkeley native, Robert’s passion for great food, locally grown ingredients and an eclectic palate have afforded him the opportunity to work in some of the Bay Area’s finest kitchens. Fascinated by food at an early age, he talked his way into his first restaurant job at the ripe age of 14. To date, his culinary pedigree includes stints at many of the Bay Area’s favorite spots and previously his own restaurant in Oakland called the Blackberry Bistro.

Robert is a personal chef as well as a consultant to a number of restaurants that have drawn upon his knowledge and expertise in both front and back of the house operations. His expertise includes restaurant concept development, menu and kitchen design, staffing and vendor sourcing.

He is currently working on a new venture slated to open in the spring of 2010. His new venture will again highlight the cultural diversity of the San Francisco Bay Area with a focus on sustainable practices, bold flavors, and a hip scene. Be on the look out as Oakland is in for a treat!

Who makes that wildly popular Creole Potato Salad that’s found in supermarket delis around the country? Well, meet New Orleans Bill who first introduced it over 18 years ago in the San Francisco Bay Area. The popularity of the salad and the story of this California based, New Orleans native and ex-Bourbon Street barker, has been profiled on both NBC and ABC networks, local newspapers and Black Enterprise magazine.

As a successful entrepreneur with products in thousands of stores, Bill uses his 18+ years in the Wholesale food industry, accounting experience, and Southern University business degree to mentor and consult specialty food businesses on how to produce products that retailers will be interested in, strategies to implement and how to successfully negotiate deals that are cost effective and profitable.

Bill credits his longevity in this business to the greatness of New Orleans food of course, but much more so to his understanding that the wholesale food business is “STRICTLY BUSINESS BABY!”
