For me, cooking is...

My calling, is the science that I treasure the most.

I learned to cook at...

Apprenticeship at The Gastronomic Restaurant « Le Caveau du Grand Puits » in a typical Gastronomic French restaurant.

A cooking secret...

No secrets, simply hard work, dedication, consistency, and care. I work with french skills mixed with the island food influences.

Words cannot adequately describe the remarkable dining experience we had with Chef Laura Uny during our 14-day stay. She was so highly--polished, composed and professional but also extremely friendly while preparing some of the most amazing and exquisite delicacies for our evening meals. Each occasion was most memorable, providing a blend of European, Caribbean and American cuisine. Even our breakfasts each morning presented both new and traditional dishes, clearly bringing her own creative experience to start our day on a very positive note. She was most charming and was extremely dedicated to ensuring our specific food requests were completely fulfilled. I was most awe-struck by how someone as young as she, displayed such dignity, polish, creativity and attention to detail. She is undoubtedly a chef for whom your organization should be extremely proud and honored to have among your staff. You and she are to be highly commended. We are grateful she was placed with us. We will certainly miss her daily presentations and pleasant conversation. We hope to return soon and would wholeheartedly request she again provide more memorable dining experiences. Bravo! With warmest regards, Joe & Lee Agnelli

Chef Laura was personable, friendly and engaging. She answered questions throughout the preparation and service. The plates were works of art and simply delicious. The courses worked well together with complements from dish to dish. Her house made passion fruit / mango rum was an incredible finish to an incredible meal. I’d recommend Chef Laura time and again for anybody seeking a memorable (and delicious) experience! As a final leave behind, we had a large papaya with which we did not know what to do. She made us a sweet glaze and left directions to cook - this became both our breakfast the following morning and a dessert later that night.

Chef Laura was absolutely fantastic. From her communication to her cooking, this was one of the best meals I’ve ever had! 10/10! Highly recommended!

I cant even describe the fun that we had with our chef. She did WAY beyond what we expected and then offered us a wine pairing as an add on the day of. I told her our budget and she stayed within it for the wine and picked the most fabulous wines for pairing. I would recommend her over and over again. We want to go back just to have her cook for us again.
