About Me
My name is D'Andre Hepburn, and I was born and raised in Nassau, Bahamas. At a young age, I began cooking alongside my mother and acquired a passion for the culinary arts. From there, I pursued a professional path and obtained official training at Monroe College in New York City, where I worked with some of the world's most renowned chefs, including Daniel Boulud, who helped shape and define my career.
My artistic style and infectious passion for food has carried me throughout the world. Following formal training, I have decided to take things to the next level and focus on experiencing different cuisines to soon incorporate into my inventive style of cooking. For the past few years I have worked on various Motor Yachts as a private Chef traveling the world and experiencing different food culture.
