Mise en Place – the Podcast 9: Kate Siegel

On this weeks podcast we have Kate Siegel, the Executive Pastry Chef of Fairmont's Pacific Rim Hotel. From humble beginnings in small town Ontario, to running the pastry program at the Fairmont's most premiere property in Canada.
Kate' unique perspective on the hospitality community and where it is and where it could go, shows her love and respect for the people within it. I truly believe we need more leaders like her changing the game. I hope you enjoy this chat as much as I did. As always, please send comments and suggestions for guests through direct message on @cookscamp2024 on instagram.
