I craft soulful, globally inspired comfort food with care and purpose

I’m a passionate home cook and the founder of Lepainchaud, a small-batch culinary brand inspired by my journey of healing, love, and resilience. My cooking is rooted in comfort and warmth, blending Mexican, French, Malay, and Indonesian influences into dishes that feel both familiar and unique.

At Lepainchaud, I specialize in lard-free tamales, handmade focaccia, rich stews, and Basque burnt cheesecake. I cook with clean ingredients and a caring, creative approach—whether I’m preparing wholesome family meals, elegant bites for intimate gatherings, or snacks for little ones, I bring heart and hospitality to every dish. Cooking is my love language, and I’d be honored to share it in your home.

How I cook for you

I cook to heal and connect

For me, cooking is an act of love, a way to heal, connect, and bring comfort—one meaningful, flavorful dish at a time.

I learned through resilience

I learned to cook during my cancer battle, creating comforting dishes that gave me strength and hope in my small humble home kitchen.

I keep it simple and soulful

My secret in the kitchen is using simple, high-quality ingredients and infusing every dish with care, creativity, and a touch of personal passion.
