Amy’s Culinary Adventures

Enjoy an extravagant food experience featuring Amy Jurist, owner of Amy's Culinary Adventures and host of Underground Dinners. Bacon, the "Candy of Meat" makes anything taste better! Join Chef Amy in her one hour demonstration as she takes bacon beyond the breakfast plate and leads you to a totally new experience of the salty, sweet, chewy or crispness of bacon.

 

Since childhood Chef Amy Jurist has had a passion for food and cooking. Even as a child she was moved by decadent foods, great sauces, and "yummy" amazing flavors. Formerly a TV marketing executive, Amy left the advertising world 8 years ago to pursue the culinary arts.  After attending cooking classes in France and Switzerland through the CIA-Hyde Park, she returned to Los Angeles to formalize her training at the Professional Program at the Westlake Culinary Institute. 

 

In addition to her successful catering business, Chef Amy has been hosting Underground Dinners for the last five years.  A huge fan of underground dining Chef Amy often refers to the gatherings as "food raves."  These "bootleg restaurants" are one night only affairs housed in apartments, houses and other private spaces at locations that are unknown until the entrance fee has been paid.  Chef Amy says she enjoys the community feel, the creative freedom, the unique settings, and the opportunity to showcase her food to people who appreciate it.
