In this episode, learn how Melissa Lamothe went from a career in oil and gas software automation to culinary entrepreneurship with her new company The Gilded Spoon. When the opportunity arose to take a sabbatical, she grabbed it by the horns and went to NYC to study at a top-ranked culinary institute and then proteged under Michelin star executive chefs. As a busy wife, mom and employee, Melissa knew first-hand how meal times were difficult for many so she developed freezable meal kit deliveries with recipes inspired by her work at some of the best restaurants.
