Gayle's adventures in food began when working at a restaurant as a busgirl as a teen. It was the first time she ever had broccoli and hollandaise sauce.. and she was in love. After being told that Hollandaise was a butter sauce, she went to the store and bought a head of broccoli and pound of butter (of course not the same thing) and ate herself sick. From that point on, she wanted to know what else she was missing and how to reproduce it. Since then, Gayle has played every moveable part in the industry, including owner of her own restaurant. When Gayle returned to the food industry 14 years ago, she chose off-premise catering once she realized that was the part of the restaurant she really loved. She loved being part of clients...
