Sandra Lewis
Sandra Lewis is the founder of Life At The Table and a chef, writer, and public speaker who passionately believes that the shared dining experience at home is a powerful human ritual mostly overlooked, downplayed, and misunderstood in today’s culture. Her expertise includes 20+ years as a single, working mom with a career in corporate America who made the evening meal the prime focus of her family life, and since August 2010, as a classically-trained chef. With an emphasis on fresh, seasonal, and local food, Sandra instructs the home cook to prepare and serve palate-pleasing meals using everyday ingredients and smart cooking techniques; how to cook economically and reduce kitchen waste. Above all, Sandra believes that the table experience is redemptive, restorative, and transformative. These principle thoughts are woven into every aspect of the work of Life At The Table.
