About LouLou

I was born and raised in Costa Mesa, California, by my mom and grandma two incredible women who were not only amazing cooks and bakers but also the most gracious hostesses.

​

My grandma, Mary Lou, inspired my love for food and hospitality.

​

LouLou is a tribute to her, as we share the same middle name and the same joy in bringing people together.

From camping trips where we’d cook over open fires to baking cookies and pies from scratch, I fell in love early with the art of hosting and the beauty of sharing it.

​

That passion grew as I lived in Italy, studied at The Cheese School of San Francisco, and traveled across Europe exploring the world of cheese, wine, culinary traditions and cultures. 

​

Today, I specialize in food, wine, and cheese pairings, along with grazing tables, event coordination, wedding planning and event styling each created with care, creativity, and a touch of elegance.

​

After eleven years on The Central Coast & Paso Robles Wine Country, I’m endlessly grateful to do what I love every day.

​

Bringing people together through delicious food, beautiful presentation, and heartfelt weddings is an honor.

As a proud ally and safe space for the LGBTQ+ and BIPOC community, everyone is welcome at my table.

​

Best Wishes, Warmest Regards,

LouLou♡
