Chef Laurie Bio:

Born and raised in the heart of New Orleans, Laurie is an enthusiastic chef whose kitchen is deep rooted in soulful flavors of the Crescent City. Inspired by the rich culinary traditions of her hometown, she blends classic recipes with her own creative touch, turning simple ingredients into unforgettable bites. While classic French pastry such as croissants is Laurie’s first love hometown hearty fair including jambalaya is a close second. Whether she is working on wholesale, retail or bougie catering in her commercial production kitchen, Bananas + Beehives, or sharing her creations with the community, Laurie pours love, heritage, and a little bit of NOLA magic mixed with North Georgia cuisine into every bite. In 2023 she opened her commercial kitchen, That Borrowed Kitchen, to other makers and bakers looking to begin their pastry journey. Her passions outside of the kitchen are tennis, painting and family time.
