The Krewe De Food was instated over a year ago in response to the opportunity to utilize a commercial kitchen at a school given over to arts education programing through a Recovery School District partnership with the New Orleans Creative Alliance.

It seemed like the perfect opportunity to create our city's 1st culinary incubator... all we had to do was completely rebuild the kitchen, and we did, and it took a long time and alot of my personal $, and we provided the food for a great Jazz Fest event, and then, we were kindly asked to vacate the school - the RSD decided they wanted the school back as a school and needed to start construction asap - that was July 2009. If you drive by and see any construction please let me know.
Insert long, depressing, interim moving a kitchen/ looking for a space part here.
About a month ago I got a mass email c/o Susan Spicer about a woman at the New Orleans Mission who was asking for financial / equipment donations.
Insert short, positive, moving kitchen equipment for a great cause part here.
In exchange for giving The Mission the equipment that was donated to us, we get to use the kitchen as an incubator on the weekends.
