I'm Kendra Baze-Craven, and I love to cook. After the University of St. Thomas and the Culinary Institute of America, I spent years in some of Houston's best kitchens, including Café Annie, Indika and Pondicheri.
As a busy mom of twin boys, I learned first-hand how hard it is to get whole, fresh food on the table. Simply C grew from cooking for friends who felt the same way.
We cook with local ingredients wherever we can, like Bee2Bee honey and VerdeGreen salad greens.
We carry Short Stack Editions: small, collectible cookbooks, each devoted to one ingredient and written by one of America's top cooks. They make perfect stocking stuffers and host gifts, starting at $15, and thoughtful client gifts in quantity.
