Vanessa Percher has been cooking up a storm in Montreal, Canada since 2005. Vanessa’s celiac disease diagnosis in 2007 transformed her life and motivated her to go to India to study Ayurvedic healing through food. Over the years, she has merged her knowledge of Eastern Ayurvedic cooking with her professional Western cooking background that also includes a degree from the St-Pius Culinary Institute, certificates in Applied Nutrition as well as Vegetarian Nutrition from the Alive Academy of Natural Health and participation at the Natural Gourmet Institute in New York City. Vanessa offers catering services, cooking classes, consulting services to restaurants and food distributors including private chef services. In January 2013, Vanessa opened her first commercial site named Chef Veganessa. It is ever expanding whereby some of her products can now be found at various retailers with outlets across Canada. Vanessa always keeps up with the latest food science and is a strong advocate of the gluten free whole grain plant based diet and believes that food shouldn't just taste good and be visually appealing, it should be most importantly highly nutritious. www.veganessa.ca
