Robin’s practical kitchen knowledge and passion for food, cooking and retail/outdoor markets make her an ideal advisor and consultant for restaurants, chefs, food service companies and retail outlets.
Robin consults on ways to evolve recipes to a desirable nutritional profile, often concentrating on making products more healthful while retaining what’s important: taste. She’s been called upon to provide input for children’s menus, catering menus and diet-specific menus including dairy-free, vegan, vegetarian, Kosher, gluten-free and more.
As someone who is most comfortable in the kitchen, Robin delivers training to each person in the company with the same energy, humor and respect. From gluten-free expectations in restaurants today to cross contamination to the latest trends in nutrition and health, she knows her audience and tailors the curriculum with that in mind.
As an advisory board member for such organizations as the Northharvest Bean Grower’s Association, Robin lends her nutrition competence and voice to a wide range of communication strategies that take content, design, delivery and more into account.
Robin has worked alongside many chefs and restaurants to develop menu items based on a number of factors, including cuisine and health objectives, budgetary concerns, human resources constraints, customer demands and so on.
