“Food for the Spirit” by Private Chef to the Yacht Crowd, Jackie Lee.

May 19, 2011 by

[HTML1] Food is not only nourishing to the body, people…it’s a nourishment to the Spirit too!

Jackie Lee, Private Chef to the Yacht Crowd, talks about it all with People of Distinction host Al Cole. Jackie is the proud winner of the recent Chopped Competition too!

The best way to put it would be in Jackie’s own wonderful words: “I’m a freelance private chef who travels the world with my clients on their mega-yachts. Dealing with the demands of my clients and working by myself in a small, rocky kitchen, is huge a challenge. Cooking is my artistic expression — I think about how the colors, the shapes and the textures work together. I can cook any style of food from French to Italian to Korean which is a good thing since I need to be versatile for my clients. I’m self-taught and never follow a recipe. I find myself waking up in the middle of the night with an idea for a dish that I must make the next day. I don’t care if you’re a man, woman or iguana, I’m not threatened by anyone…and I’m ready to compete in the kitchen!” …That’s tellin’ em Jackie! Love it!

About Al Cole

Al Cole, “Mr. Romance,” has lived some life, and has paid some dues. Al, an African-American man(don’t let the blue eyes fool ya!), is the product of a very loving, very special, romantic mother and father. From the earliest age Al related to that generous, loving, romantic spirit that was nurtured in him.

Al has also seen oppression. Oppression can sometimes breed sensitivity and empathy. This aspect of living has caused Al to relate to women even more sensitively and empathetically. A sensitivity and empathy that Al calls “Romance.” Creativity rounds out the character. Al is a born and professional entertainer. Through Al’s singing and songwriting, his CBS Radio broadcasting, and through the depth of his voice, Al has learned many ways to deliver his “Romance” message—seriously, comically, sensually and spiritually. He has carried the Romantic word out to women…and to men too. And in the carrying of that message, Al has found that women and men from all backgrounds have often asked for his advice and guidance concerning their familial and romantic relationships.

Al has been particularly blessed to have women confide some of their deepest personal and relationship secrets to him. These “secrets” coupled with his own experiences and intuitions have combined in his offering both women and men some of the most powerful, enlightening, and mind-challenging guidance that they say they have ever received.

Al has been told over and over again by his fans, fans who affectionately call themselves “Al Cole-holics”, that his reflections, as well as his romantic words, could fill a book. The reflections, the romance, and the “secrets” have now been revealed in Al’s new book Romance for Women…& For All Mankind!

Al is also the Host of Al Cole: People of Distinction on WomensRadio. Al Cole: PEOPLE Of DISTINCTION is a unique show giving distinctive public figures the chance to talk not only about their great public accomplishments, but also notable aspects of themselves as individuals...what motivates them to create the things they do, their special goals and interests, their insights into life itself!
