With more than two decades of culinary experience\, Jody creates take-home dishes that evoke warmth and nostalgia — from Chicken Pot Pie and Creamy Clam Chowder to globally inspired favorites like Thai-Coconut Curry Simmer Sauce and Beef Bourguignon Shepherd’s Pie. Her mission is simple: bringing people together through food that sparks memory and connection. \nJoining her is Chef Aunikah Bastian\, whose culinary path blends global exploration with a deeply rooted\, community-driven spirit. Aunikah trained at the Institute of Culinary Education and in traditional Japanese macrobiotic cuisine\, and previously cooked at Sierra Mar at Post Ranch Inn in Big Sur. She has since transitioned into freelance cheffing\, offering private culinary services while embracing a more grassroots\, flexible approach to her craft. \nFood entrepreneurship runs in her blood — she grew up immersed in her family’s small popcorn business\, which began with humble pop-ups at markets\, fairs\, and community events before growing into the nationally recognized brand BOOM CHICKA POP. That early experience continues to shape her passion for connecting food\, people\, and place. \nToday\, Aunikah serves as Production Lead Chef\, Kitchen Manager\, and Marketing Coordinator for Bay Living Culinary\, where her talent and vision are helping expand the company’s reach and creative offerings. \nTogether\, Chef Jody and Chef Aunikah bring creativity\, experience\, and a shared love of community to the farmers market — celebrating fresh ingredients and the joy of everyday cooking. \n👉 Learn more about Bay Living Culinary ( https://www.baylivingculinary.com)
